The Knomes

The Knomes were out at Smiths/kroger last night... so the new pricing should be out. Someone suggested that wed morning was when the staff had parties...

I just think the gremlins are out.

hmm

Well that is week one of the blog, I'm dying for some feedback. I assume that you know something about coupons. I spent my evening at Smiths and Harmons.

I had a buy 5 uncle ben's instant rice coupon get $1.25 off coupon. = .75 each after coupon
I had a Knorr pasta or rice sides coupon.. or a couple of them = .75 each after coupon. These coupons didn't say "fiesta sides" or "asian sides" I would have like to have tried them. I also had the .50 off ragu pasta sauce =.68 each after coupon.

Other than that I filled up my freezer with the On-Cor ribs and lasagna. $1.79 each.

Then I went to harmons to load up on Totino's Crisp Crust Party Pizza buy 4/$1 coupon and Totino's Pizza Rolls they are .75 cents each. I think I had some other coupons that got them to .70 each. I like harmons... it's just expensive.

Harmons jan 30-feb 5

We have a big game day insert... or ex-sert and a the big mix and match on meat.
Last time I saw the "pick 4" I didn't see one item in the items that I would pay the price for. I felt this little gimic is for silly people and for Harmons marketing department to feel like they have a purpose.

First good deal is on the Red Baron Pizza.
I shop for families, and 1 pizza per family so they can have a "Pizza Night"


$1/2 Red Baron, Tony's or Freschetta Pizza, exp. 2/12/12 (SS 01/22/12 R)

harmons price 4 for $10 = $2.50 each

$2 each after coupon.

Good price, I believe the red baron pizza is worth $3... kinda.
but with coupon.

I only have one of these coupons so I'll get 4 pizzas for $2.25
If you have two of the smartshopper coupons you will get them for $2.00


Totino's pizza and 15ct pizza rolls 10 for $10
$1 each and

buy 4 get $1 off coupon on party pizza
$50 off of 2 pizza rolls
total =.75 cents each


Dijorno pizza---
smiths has a better deal on these.. and there is a $1/2 and $2/2 coupon.
2/$11
total $4.50... $3.50 at smiths with coupon

Kraft salad dressing 2 for $4
$0.75/2 Kraft Dressing, exp. 2/19/12 (SS 01/22/12 R)

My Smiths/Kroger deals

Because of my shopping prowess I seem to shop for a few families. This is what I picked up this morning.... at 7am *eye roll*

Smiths/Kroger carry the On-Cor Entree's some for $2.25 and some for $2.75 (lasagna).

This isn't the worst price most stores price them from $3-$4(which I would never pay... they aren't that good, but kids tend to enjoy them.

Right now on their buy 10 items get $5.00 off sale, they are going for $1.78 each.

I looked for a coupon but they just aren't out there, as I can find. I picked up 10 of them.

There is a Honey bunches of oats coupon for $1.00 off 1 box. In the new ad they are $2.00 each. With the coupon that is $1.00 each

I picked up 3 boxes, which was all the coupons I had.... also like everyone else who coupons enough... I have enough cereal to last through a year.. if not two.
But $1.00 to buy 18 oz of cereal was hard to pass up.

Digiorno Pizza is $4.50, these are actually a favorite of mine... if I ate pizza (this is very true) There used to be a coupon for $2.00 off on their facebook page, "take the digiorno challenge/pledge to not order pizza". That would make the pizza's $2.50, Under $3.00 is where I bite on this particular pizza deal. Unfortunately I ran out of those coupons, but I did have a buy 2 get $2.00 off, so I picked 2 of them up for $3.50 :( . Yes.... I was ok, with buying them at that price.. my stock of them was getting low. Kids who are good, get a pizza every week.... Kids who throw things at their mother.... do not... but that is another story.

Ragu Pasta sauce. is $1.18 I had a coupon for $55 cents off. That is .63 each.

The coupon came in the circulars this weekend. even without a coupon that is an excellent price... even for generic pasta sauce... I of course make my own... but ...

Armor Meatballs. they are $2.00 if you buy 2. I had a Dollar off coupon which got me $1.50 on 12 oz... it's still not great but my rule of thumb is if meatballs are cheaper than ground beef.

There are some good deals on uncle ben's rice... also on cups of mac and cheese... if you let anyone eat that crap which even at .50 for a single serving seems expensive to me.
