I ended up with $102.76 worth of groceries in the first transaction and only paid $43.68! Saved $60!!!

Also received $1 off next grocery order catalina and a 40 cent off gal of gas catalina.

By the way, I forgot to mention that the Velveeta shells and cheese boxes are $2.39 a box. Buy 2, use the $1/2 Kraft IP. Pay $2.78 total and receive $1 off your next grocery purchase catalina. So, they end up costing you $.89 a box after coupons and catalina! Good deal.

Forgot to say this amount included 6 lbs of hamburger meat, 1 large pork tenderloin and 1 huge bag of chicken. Meat tends to bring the bill up some but well worth it.

Here are a few of the deals I posted on another board. Thought I'd share them here but there really are tons more deals this week! Fun week to save at Homeland.

.99 for Pepsi products, use the $1/4 hangtag found at CVS and other stores making 4 of them .49 each.

Use the coupon from this past weeks HL paper buy 4 Kraft items and get $2 off chicken. It is still valid thru 5/26/09. The products to buy are cool whip, miracle whip, easy mac and Kraft cheese. Use the Kraft coupons for all these products. The big chicken bags with leg/thighs are .49/lb making your big bag of chicken only $2.90 after the coupon! (I was able to divide this into 3 meals for my family of 4.)

Buy the Nabisco Chips Ahoy (still hunting for a coupon) $2.50 each and use the $1 off milk peelie. My store has doubled this making it $2 off milk. (I ended up not finding a coupon for the cookies, but got the cookies anyway because I had to buy milk as I was out. I paid $1 for a gallon of milk and $2.50 for the cookies. Not great but not bad.)

Hersheys syrup is $2 each, use the $1/2 coupon from the paper on Sunday to get them for $1 each. (They had caramel, chocolate and Strawberry.)

Ocean Spray is $2.50. I did find a $1/1 coupon from the paper for CranEnergy juice if this is included. (This is not included in the sale but is priced at $2.98, so use the $1 off to make it .98 a container.)

All laundry detergent is $3.99 each, use the $1/2 coupon, not sure which paper and get them for $2.99 each.

Wet Ones are $1.99 each, use the $1 off IP found on their website, I believe. Can't remember as I have had it printed for awhile. Get them FREE!

Eckrich smoked sausage is $2.98 each, use the $1/2 coupon and get them for $1.98 each.

Ground beef is $1.69/lb good price especially if you use a $2 off coupon on beef from the Homeland paper. So, you are getting a little over a pound of beef free.

eggs are great at .78 a dozen.

Use the $1 off guacamole and get it for .50 each along with the coupon for free salsa when you buy the guacamole.

Hunts ketchup .99 each, use the .20/1 from this past Sunday paper and get them for .59 each

Olay body wash $3.50 each, use the $1 off P &G coupon off ANY olay body wash and pay $1.50 each

Solo Bare paper plates or cups $2.50, use a $1 off IP to make them .50 each. http://bricks.coupons.com/Start.asp?...=BA&p=RE9Wd6Dc

I have saved so very much on groceries since shopping there. Before I couponed I would of NEVER stepped foot in Homeland due to their huge prices but now that I coupon... I shop there every week.

When I tell anyone I shop at Homeland and save my most money.... they look at me like I'm crazy!

[Sarsi]

Yes!! Thats how we were!! We walked in a Homeland when we first moved to OKC, and walked right out after looking at a few of the prices!! Now its like THE store we go to!!

Thanks for your tips for this week, Faith1!!! Can't wait to go on my FIRST trip this week! LOL

I don't have time right now to post my shopping trip I just got home from...but bottom line...I DID GREAT! I saved $130.63 on $155.95
I walked out paying $25.32
Figured out a few deals with the Kraft coupons (I had lots and lots of Kraft IP's)
Quick ,noe to those of you who have not been shopping yet....
*Crystal light B1G CL Skin Essentials Free
If you are wanting to use this coupon more than once in the same transaction
Use the B1G1 and gthe $1/1 and get the CL Skin Ess. and one of the bxes for $1.99
making both FREE
Then...Use the 2nd B1G1 to get the CL Skin Ess. and one of the $1 CL 5 packs (mine are on a crdboard display at the end of another aisle) then aso use another $1/1 or use a $2/2 and get 2 of the 5 packs. Either way you get them all FREE!
I ended up with 10 of the 5 packs
3 of the Skin Essentials
1 of the regular $1.99 boxes
ALL FOR FREE!
I was tired of going to HL evryday for different transactions to hurry and use my IP's tht expire at the end of the month. So I used all but maybe 3 of the CL's today in 1 transaction. Plus I still have a few sets that do not expire till 8/31/09
I know I won't be able to go sopping as much after todayb/c tomorrow is my kids last day at school...LOL...and ya'll know how it is to take kids shopping
