Well, I had a coupon for "Grande Tortilla Chips" (they even make a reduced fat kind, according to the coupon), and I went to four completely different stores (as opposed to several outlets of the same store) and didn't find them anywhere. I think once you've tried four completely different stores, it's safe to assume the product isn't sold in your area.

Ha! I found a place that had them. They had an entire row full of them, which seemed odd considering how limited their cereal selection was.

Even though we've only been to that store a few times since I moved here, I think I must have subconsciously remembered seeing them there because when I looked at the picture on the coupon, I knew I had seen that bag somewhere, and I had a mental image in my head of that store.

I got another good deal at that store. Some of the half-gallon milk jugs had a $1.00 coupon attached to them. By getting two half-gallons with those coupons, I spent a $1.00 less on the milk than I would have if I had gotten a 1 gallon jug. (1 gallon jugs were $3 and half-gallon jugs were $2.)

I noticed that Hooters wing sauce at Walmart isn't expensive, either. Maybe next time we're in need of wing sauce, we can try that kind.

Man, sometimes I feel guilty shopping at the "evil" Walmart, but then again, Kroger is overpriced on some things and those things aren't sold at Meijer. The Birdseye Streamfresh meals (which started this topic in the first place) are $10 at Kroger, but only $5 at Walmart. The frozen Wanchai Ferry is $9 at Kroger, $6 at Walmart. Combined with coupon savings, I managed to get both for about $8 total at Walmart. Crawl's brother insists Meijer sells things for less than Kroger does, but they didn't have the Birdseye meals or the frozen Wanchai Ferry, so...

I was out of Meow Mix Hairball Control food (so far, the only type of hairball control food that does anything for our cats - the Iam's Hairball Control failed that test), so I needed to buy more. I didn't have a coupon, but when I took it off the shelf at the store, I noticed someone had left an unexpired coupon for a $1 off any kind of Meow Mix sitting in front of it. So I got a discount I wasn't expecting (I have no idea where they got that coupon, since I've never seen a Meow Mix coupon in any of the booklets I get in our local paper.)

I usually buy Friskies for Pepper, but she'll eat just about any kind of wet food. So, if I get coupons for other kinds, I'll buy them for her. I was happy that I had some coupons for Iam's and Science Diet canned food lately where if I bought so many cans, I'd get one free, since I know those kinds are healthier. But at almost $1 a can, they're too expensive to buy all the time. I sometimes also get 9 Lives canned food, but I've noticed that she doesn't like the Super Supper flavor, so I'll avoid that kind next time. Lady likes 9 Lives flaked tuna, and Pepper likes it, too - she often finishes up what Lady leaves behind.


I think I've gotten us to the point where it will be awhile before we'll need certain things because I've been stocking up on items with coupon savings. Mostly cleaning stuff that I won't have to buy again for ages. I'm now throwing away more coupons each week than using because I have coupons for a lot of things I won't need again for awhile.
