I haven’t gone shopping since my Johnson & Johnson cause party almost 3 weeks ago, save for one $3.49 dairy purchase earlier this week. I had so much food left over!! But we’ve eaten our way through a lot of it now, and we also have company coming today who will be staying through the weekend, so I stopped by the store yesterday afternoon.

Got:

1 box of Kashi Honey Sunshine cereal – regularly price at $3.99, used a free product coupon that I received in the mail from Vocalpoint. Final price: Free! If you haven’t signed up for Vocalpoint yet, I highly recommend it. I frequently receive free product coupons in the mail just for being a member.
1 box of store brand Ritz crackers – price: $2.49
1 bag of flour – price: $1.99
2 candy bars – regularly priced at .89 cents each, used two free product coupons that I won in a giveaway from Psychic Mama Indigo Child’s blog. Final price: Free! Thanks again!
1 bag of Starbucks coffee – price: $7.99. This was the best price on coffee this week, and as a bonus, there is a coupon on the packaging that says I can bring the empty bag into any Starbucks and receive a free drink.
1 dozen eggs – on sale for $1.59, used a coupon from the Safeway sales flier to bring the price down to $1.49. However, the coupon took off .70 cents, which really confuses me – I also used another store coupon for cheese (see below), which didn’t appear anywhere on the receipt, but the cheese came up at the right price. I’m wondering if the .70 cents was for both? Was the original price of the eggs higher than I thought? Or did it just take the wrong amount off?
1 gallon of milk – price: $2.49
1 quart of half & half – price: $2.29
1 package of pepperoni – price: $2.49
2.22 lbs. of bananas – on sale for .69 per pound, final price: $1.53
1.74 lbs of oranges – on sale for $1.49 per pound, final price: $2.59
1 head of lettuce – price: $1.29
1.60 lbs of gala apples – on sale for .78 per pound, final price: $1.25
2 lbs of grapes – price: $2.99
1 package of deli pastrami – price: $4.99
1 package of Alpine Swiss cheese – I used a coupon from the Safeway sales flier to bring the price of this to $1.99, but the coupon appears nowhere on the receipt, as I mentioned above – however, the price of the cheese is listed as $1.99. The receipt lists the original price for this as $5.99.
1 package of Alouette brie cheese – price: $5.89, but I will submit this rebate to receive my full purchase price back, meaning I will have only spent a stamp for it.

I had other free coupons that I had planned to redeem, but the store is being remodeled and everything is torn apart – whole aisles are missing and products are scattered throughout the building. I wasn’t able to find the other items that I had coupons for, so I’ll just check back later or try Fred Meyer! And since this is a tourist town and Safeway is pretty much the only grocery store here, it gets completely packed during the summer – so it was a little chaotic! I would have gone to customer service to ask about the egg coupon, but it was so hectic in there that I just went home.
