Had originally planned to split these trips between my 2 days off, but ended up doing them both today. Wow, was I hungry when I got home!!

Hit up Target for lots of stuff, then a small-ish trip to Rainbow.

2 - Colgate Optic White toothpaste (reg. $3.79) sale $2.99 - MfrQ $1.50 (x2) - TQ $1 (x2) = $.49 each
6 - Kashi items (2 frozen meals, 2 crackers, 2 cookies) (reg/sale $2.79-2.99) - Target buy 5 get 1 free - MfrQ $1 (x2) - MfrQ $1/2 (x2) - TQ $1/2 (x2) = 11.84 - $2.79 (one item free) = $9.05 or $1.51 each
1 - Rimmel eyeshadow (reg. $2.49) - TQ $1 - MfrQ $1 = $.49
1 - Schick reusable razor (for DGF - Yay!) reg. $6.49 - MfrQ $2 = $4.49*
1 - Schick refill cartridges reg. $10.99 - MfrQ $2 = $8.99* + these 2* items earned me a $5 GC
2 - Starbucks ground coffee (reg. $8.89) - MfrQ $1.50 (x2) = $7.39 each + $5 GC

Other items we needed: face wash, moisturizer, mascara, powder compacts, coffee and coffee creamer, pizza, lunch meat, tylenol, chips and salsa, detergent, hand soap, tp, cat food... got all that stuff with Qs, too.

I did get a few clothing items for myself, some on clearance (-$6 in Qs) and some not. It was worth it-- I've really been wanting some new clothes lately. I also got some adorable summery dishtowels on clearance $1.98 for 2 towels. They were so cute and will go with all my great glassware when we finally get settled in our own house.

And I got us a teal Foreman waffle iron on clearance, 50% off, for $7.50. I've been wanting to get us a waffle iron for a while and this was a great time to get one!

10 - Stonyfield yogurt cups (reg. $1.29) sale 10/$10 - MfrQ $1/5 (x2) (dbl) = $.60 each
3 - Morningstar Farms Chix Enchilada entrees (reg. $4.89) clearance $2.44 - MfrQ $.75 (x3) = $1.69 each
The best deal I got today was some clearance Oxy Clinical items. A while back, I got the starter kit on clearance and doubled my $1 Qs on them, forgetting that I had $3 Qs specifically for the Clinical items. Today I used them all!
6 - Oxy Clinical face wash, moisturizer, & treatment (reg. $7.49) clearance $3.74 - MfrQ $3 (x6) = $.74 each
We're stocked!!

I'm glad I take a look at my receipts when I do this blog... I noticed the cashier rang me for 4 of the Morningstar meals (I just double-checked my freezer and there are, indeed, only 3 in there,) and that my Wholly Guacamole rang up for more than I was expecting... Hmm... I'll have to check on that tomorrow.

My cashier was a doll, btw! She was impressed by my coupons and said, "Wow, you should be on that show!" even though she hadn't seen it yet. I laughed and said thanks, that I really wouldn't want to be on that show, since I'm not that dramatic! And we agreed that they always pump up the drama on those types of "reality" shows. She was a speedy speedy lady, though, so it looks like she made a couple of mistakes. I'll see what I can do about it!
