This is about 1/4 of the groceries I had from my Kroger trip early this morning! I made 6 different transactions, paid $85 out of pocket, saved over $250 and left with catalina’s for another day!

The grocery deals are so good this weekend, and I wanted to get them posted this morning in case you were shopping this weekend that I am going to post the CVS and Walgreens stuff later tonight.

Plus if I don’t get off the computer and pay attention to my family my husband is going to kill me! Kids are running wild, he is trying to clean out the garage with the big kids and nothing is getting done inside. About 2 hours ago I said, “I am almost done!” So as much as I love you guys, I have to walk away from the computer! 🙂

TODAY is the LAST day for the Kroger Kraft Catalina + Mega Event matchup day. If you have any of the Kraft coupons for the PRODUCTS that QUALIFY, you need to go use them TONIGHT!!!!

These are the posts that you are going to want to read to make your trip: 

• *HOT* Kroger Mega Event: Catalina Double Dip = Money Maker!
• Kroger Mega Event: 30 Items for $21.75 + Leave with $3 catalina!
• Kroger Mega Event: My Kraft Catalina Trip! $.90 for all this!
• *HOT* Kroger Mega Event: Reach TOTAL Care Floss only $.49!
• Kroger + Mega Event + Catalina Deals Explained
• Kroger Mega Event: Kraft BBQ Sauce only $.20! 🙂
• Kroger Mega Event: Bought all this for $3.65!

Reader Alejandra went this morning and was also able to find some Rubbermade BOGO sets for $12 and used 2 $2 coupons ( or use $1.50/1 Rubbermaid Lunch Box Food Storage Product printable)  and a $2  Catalina from the Kraft products. She paid $22 for two Rubbermaid 24 container sets and two lunch blox!

So when you are done with your mega event shopping, take your left over catalina’s and buy some other things that you need/want and use the catalina’s to pay down that cost!

And, this is what was happening when I was writing this post up. A Oreo massacre. Who just eats the inside out, what kind of person does THAT!?

I am out… before something worse then this happens! 🙂

I have ANOTHER catalina deal idea for you this week! This isn’t a Kraft product so you have a few days to do it. But you could combine a few other cataina deals on this one!

Buy 2 Fantastik, Scrubbing Bubbles or Windex and get a $1.50 Catalina

::Deal Idea::

Buy 2 Windex $1.99 ( mega event item )
Use $1.00 off 2 SC Johnson cleaners
Total: $2.98
Get Back: $1.50
Total Cost: $.74 each!

OR do this idea TOMORROW…. There are 3 transactions, each one rolling catalinas from one transaction to another. I will make a transaction, then go back right then and do another transaction. Until I have done all 3 and used up all my catalinas and coupons. You don’t have to do what I am exactly, I am just giving you ideas using what coupons are available and combining with mega event items and running catlina deals.

You would end up with 30 different items and only out of pocket $21.75 and leave with a $3 catalina for next time.
