Flood Break

I'll start blogging again as soon as we know what's going to happen with the flooding in our area.  Our house is currently in the "unknown" area.  We not only have the Missouri to worry about, we also have a drainage ditch too.  It looks like we'll have until Tuesday to get prepared, I ordered two truckloads of sand to be delivered.  So let the sandbagging begin.  Ahh, this brings back memories of Grand Forks in '97.  Please keep us in your thoughts.

My Shopping Trip With the News Crew

This morning one of the local news stations tagged along with me while I shopped at Target.  I honestly had not been shopping at Target for quite awhile but luckily I was able to find some great deals to show them.  My total before coupons/gift cards/checks was over $43.  My grand total out of pocket (OOP) was just $7.56!!  Here is what I got:

Huggies diapers $8.99
used $3 Huggies coupon
2 Kikkoman teriyaki sauce $1.49 each
used (2) $1 Kikkoman coupons
Nivea lotion $5.04
used $1 Target coupon
used $3 Nivea coupon
2 Wrigley's 5 gum $1.29 each
used $1/2 Target coupon
used $1/2 Wrigley's coupon
2 Schick razors $6.49 each, get a $5 gift card when you buy 2
used (2) $3 Schick coupons
used $5 gift card from previous shopping trip
Similac formula $5.49
used $10 Similac formula check
Aquafresh toothpaste (travel size) $.97
used $1 Aquafresh coupon
Suave hairspray $2.74
used "Free" Suave coupon from a Facebook offer

I also received an additional $.05 off my purchase since I used my own shopping bag.  Some more coupons printed out from the catalina machine at the store.  One of them happened to be for $3.50 off a box of diapers, since I had another $3 Huggies coupon I decided to grab another box of diapers.  I ended up finding some diapers on clearance for $24.64 so after the 2 coupons I was able to get 88 diapers for only $18.14!!  A pretty great deal if you ask me!

So I basically paid less for EVERYTHING than I would have if I had just bought the bag of diapers at $8.99.  Not too bad huh?
