Ok let me start by saying I did really well, but the cashier scanning my cat 3 times helped! here's my breakdown:

Natures Own Bread 1.79 (woohoo bread w/o HFCS on sale!)
Chiquita fruit slices mang spec 1.99
" "
OM Beef franks 4.29
small veggie tray mang spec 1.25 (my kids will devour it this afternoon )
Herbal Essance shampoo 2.50
" " condi 2.50
Pantene 3.34
Cat chow small bag 2.19
3 boxes of pudding 1.15xs 3 = 3.45 (bought for kids snack and to get free hot dogs)
Bananas 1.00
Sour cream mang spec .60
activia yougurt 8pk mang spec 3.30
bag of red potatoes mang spc .99
Dove hairspray mang spec 1.00

Total before coupons: 32.18 w/o tax
Coupons used:
P&G buy 3 get $3 off (the 3 shampoos I bought) -3
2 coupons for $1 off the chiquita apple slices I bought -2
coupon for hot dogs took off -4.51
Herbal Essance buy 2 get $3 off -3
Pantene coupon -2
cat chow free bag -2.12
activia -1.00
catalina -3.50 from buying fruit snacks during nascar sale



So here's where I wanted to kiss my cashier. When she went to put away the coupons I used the catalina scanned 3 more times making my total like 0.00. So she goes oh crap, and took off 1 of the 3 extra times it scanned but left the other two. So my total OOP was 3.51! Had I known she was going to be so generous I would have bought more! This was just a small trip I need to get my WIC stuff, and then pick up stuff I had coupons for since I was already going to be there. I had my 2 kids plus a 1 yo that I'm babysitting so I didn't stay long. But man I wish I had! hehe

So I saved 93% but $32.00 still went toward my total so I can get my gas discount!

Great Job.

That does sound like an awesome trip, I am totally jealous!!!

I have had some great cashiers at Krogers as well, last time I went they double scanned my pizza coupon and then doubled it both times, even though it said do not double. I hope she don't get in trouble for that! You gotta wonder if anybody says anything to them when they do those things.
