Double Coupons? Oh Heck yes!

It's that time AGAIN!  Super Double Coupon Time!  It kind of sneaks up on you when you least expect it.  I wasn't nearly as prepared for this trip as I usually am but I managed to do pretty well.  Here's a picture of the best deals of today. 

I got a lot of other stuff without coupons that we needed for this weeks meal plans but I didn't include a photo of all that.  My fresh meat and produce today is probably not that interesting.  :)

Also, as a side note, yes I realize I bought 7 boxes of cereal.  I started hysterically laughing in the middle of Harris Teeter because I could already see Matt's impending reaction when he realizes what I got on this trip.  The eye rolling and then him making fun of me for stock piling cereal like a dooms day prepper would definitely be in full force once he found out.  

I thought it was so funny I took a picture in the middle of the grocery store of my cart.  So it was at this point that I knew I looked like a cereal addict with mental problems as I was hysterically laughing all by myself in the middle of aisle 5 and snapping iPhone photos of my cart for no apparent reason.  Trust me when I tell you the rest of the shoppers were not amused.  They probably thought about running me over with their carts.  I wouldn't blame them either.  Blocking the shelves with my taking photos and laughing all by myself is not amusing if you are a shopper in a hurry ha ha.  Too bad there was no one there to laugh with me.

Not too bad considering all the other food items I bought including fresh veggies and meat for meal planning this week along with the items mentioned above. 

Sidenote: while we are on the topic of coupons, I have not been using my Ibotta app like I was in the past but I need to get back in to that.  The only thing though is that some of the items in my queue right now I would never buy so I have to wait until deals that are more applicable to me are available to participate as much as I would like to.

Have you tried the Ibotta app yet?  What do you think about it?

Have you gone Super Double Coupon shopping yet at Harris Teeter?  It ends tomorrow I believe so you better hurry up!

Until next time...
