Treasures of Saving$: Wal-Mart Trip 6/21/09

It’s been my goal to share my personal weekly deals and steals with you. A site I frequently visit, A Full Cup, has a contest this month. The AFC Super Saver Contest challenges shoppers to spend a minimum of $25 (before coupons) in one transaction with a savings of 80% or more. Submit your entries weekly through July 26th (see AFC for more details). Well, I decided to take on the challenge.

It would’ve helped if I had read and reread the rules. I neglected to follow the first rule: “spend” just “$25 (before coupons)”. For some reason, I thought I had to spend $25 after coupons. So this turned out to be a bit more time consuming than I thought it should. Even still, I was able to score some great deals. These are items I will definitely use and/or need.

* * * *

(1) Mars candy bar $0.50 = FAC (will be gifted to someone)
(3) Carefree pantiliners $1 = FAC
(5) Johnsons first aid kit $0.97 = FAC
(1) Airwick I-Motion air freshener $5 = $1
(1) pk Birthday candles $0.75
(2) Nestle 24 pk bottle water $2.99 = $2.49 ea
(7) Dentek floss picks $1 = FAC
(5) Reach dental floss $1 = FAC
(4) Johnsons cotton swabs $0.97 = FAC
(1) Shout wipes $0.97 = $0.22
(4) Silk soymilk $2.92 = $1.96 ea AC
(2) Always Infinity $6.97 = $2.97 ea AC
(2) Juicy Juice 8 pk $2.36 = $.79 ea AC
(3) Crest kids toothpast $1.99 = FAC
(2) Lays potato chips $2.50 = $1.69 ea
(2) Morningstar Farms crumbles $3.34 = $1 ea AC
(2) 2 pks Dove bar soap $1.97 = $0.50 pk AC

TTL retail value = $91.74
TTL after price matching & coupons = $26.30 ($24.48 plus $1.82 tax)

* * * *

Treasures of Saving$ = $65.44 (71%)

So for the AFC challenge, I missed the 80% goal by just 9 points - - still a great shopping trip. I'll make sure to read the rules carefully time. Please share your weekly treasures of savings with us. I look forward to reading about your deals and steals.

Our True Treasure: A Loving Father

Hope Father’s day was as fulfilling for you and your family as it was for us. To begin, Hubby got to climb back into bed (he’s an early-bird and I had to talk him out of mowing a family member’s lawn so he could be “pampered” for a change) and read the newspaper while waiting for breakfast.

After the morning feast was ready - - actually, it’s our regular Sunday spread of whole wheat blueberry pancakes, cream of wheat, hash browns, fresh fruit salad and orange juice - - the kiddos and I shared their gifts with him. As mentioned in a previous post, I “helped” my daughter and son craft father’s day cards. We also took advantage of Michael’s Get Hooked on Dad event and “designed” a t-shirt for him. He was very happy with all the doting and then immediately got down to business enjoying his breakfast.

Hubby filled his tummy and then took a nice long nap, undisturbed for the most part, just like a hibernating bear. Gotta love him! Then, he proceeded with his plans for the rest of the day: take Liv to see the movie “Up”. Though I thought it was a great idea, I have to admit I was a bit jealous. Not because he didn’t offer to take me instead or take me along. No, no. It was because this would now guarantee his nomination for the “best parent” award from Liv. You see, as is often the case in so many other homes, I’m the “evil mom” while he get’s to be the “best dad”. It’s all good though. Hubby is, in fact, a great DAD!

To top off the day, Hubby took the kiddos to get ice cold Quick Trip slushies after a hot evening outside washing my vehicle. This was the icing on the cake in Liv’s book. She keeps mentioning how this was the best Father’s Day ever. No doubt, she nearly forgot we were suppose to “celebrate Dads" today. Bless her little heart!

Hope you had a great day, too!!
