Shopping Trip – April 5th: How I Got A New Vacuum For $4.99
Monday, April 6th, 2009We drove down to Portland this weekend, and were able to snag some great deals on our way home!
First, we stopped at a Fred Meyer in Portland to grab some Starbucks coffees. While our drinks were being made, I noticed a newspaper that someone had left behind on a table, which happened to be full of inserts. Free coupons! Hooray!
Then we stopped in Beaverton so that I could visit a K-Mart store. You see, I entered the Score Great Prizes sweepstakes at the beginning of the year, and ended up winning a $50 K-Mart gift card. I was excited to use my prize, and I knew exactly what I wanted to get – a new vacuum. Mine has been on the fritz for months, and I’ve been shopping around for a new one. I kept thinking, “There’s got to be a better deal than what I’m finding,” so I patiently used a broom while I looked for a bargain. And I’m so glad that I did!
Total spent: $4.99 in cash, put $50 on my K-Mart gift card
Total before coupons: $59.99

I picked out this awesome Eureka vacuum, which was priced at $59.99. I had a coupon good for $5 off a $50 purchase that I received by signing up for their email list, which brought the total down to $54.99. I then used my $50 gift card prize, which left me with a grand total of only $4.99!
Right next to K-Mart was a Grocery Outlet “Bargain Market” store. I’ve always loved these outlets, so I thought I’d pop in and have a look after I got my vacuum. I needed to pick up a few pantry staples anyway, and even though I didn’t use coupons, the shelf prices were pretty low.
Total spent: $11.26
View receipt
Got:
1 lb. of bacon – price: $1.69
8 oz brick of cheese – price: $1.99
1.5 lbs of coffee – price: $5.99
Half a gallon of milk – price: $1.59
SCG Readers: Know Of Any K-Mart Deals?
Friday, April 3rd, 2009So we’re heading into Portland this weekend, and I plan to stop at K-Mart because I have a $50 gift card to use. Do you guys have any deal tips for me? Are there any unmissable sales I should know about? I just signed up for K-Mart’s email newsletter so that I can get a coupon for $5 off a $50 purchase. If you know of any other offers or coupons, please share them in the comments!
Happy Friday, everyone! Hope you get some good deals this weekend!

Last Shopping Trip Of The Month – March 31st
Thursday, April 2nd, 2009I made a quick stop at Safeway while I was out running errands yesterday:
Total spent: Zero!
Total before coupons: $5.79
View receipt
Got:
1 package of Trix yogurt – on sale for $3.00, used one free product coupon. I was invited to write a review of this yogurt for my other blog, and I received this coupon with my review materials. (Psst…I’ll be giving these away, too, so if you want to win yogurt, check Contest Corner tomorrow.)
1 bottle of Suave hairspray – on sale for $2.79, used one free product coupon that I received by signing up for a special promotion on Suave’s website in January. The coupon was about to expire, so I wanted to make sure that I used it!
When the cashier rang me up, both of these coupons took off their maximum value instead of the actual price, so the register ended up being negative $1.23; the cashier then added $1.23 to the total in order to balance it out to zero. So in case you’re trying to figure my receipt out, that’s what the $1.23 “Grocery” item is!
