Extreme Couponing?

I feel like I pretty much dominated at grocery shopping these past couple days. I managed to stock our freezer and cabinets fairly well while easily saving over a couple hundred bucks. 

To give you an idea of the savings I had on Sunday:

I spent $74 at Wal-Mart for 70 items. 

One item was $20 and it was my dog's flea and tick meds and this was the only item I didn't price match. 

So essentially I spent $54 for 69 items. 

6 pkg of Kraft shredded cheese - FREE

6 pkg of Kraft natural slices cheese - FREE

6 pkg of Oscar Meyer bologna - Free (I don't eat this but I donate it)

6 pkg of Oscar Meyer Deli Fresh lunchmeat - .49 cents each

3 pkg of Oscar Meyer Bacon - .99 cents each

4 - 32 oz bottles of Gatorade - .59 cents each

4 jars of Planters peanuts - .99 cents each

6 pkg of Green Giant steamfresh frozen veggies -.65 cents each

Can't remember what all of this was priced but the total added with the stuff above only came out to $54.

2 pkgs of Crystal Light

3 bottles of Hunts Ketchup

2 Velveeta Cheesy Skillets

3 pkgs of Keebler Cookies

2 - 4lb bags of C&H Sugar

2 - 24pk cases of Nestle Pure Life Water

1 - 12 roll pk of Angel Soft TP

3 - Butterfingers

1 - Cheetos

1 - Fritos

4 pkg of Hamburger Helper

3 cans of manwhich

1 - Ekrich Smoked Sausage

$20 dog meds

Wally world deals.

You might be looking at this list and thinking that's a lot of crap and cheese. I admit, there is quite a bit of junk in here but this is also not what we eat every day and most of this stuff will last my husband and I several months (not the cheetos, they are my weakness;). I honestly go to the grocery store 2-3 times a week and pick up the fresh produce but I tend to stock up every couple months on this other stuff whenever they have big sales. A lot of the stuff "freezes beautifully" including the cheese and lunchmeat so that helps as well. 

Monday I followed up my big food extravaganza with a little bit of shopping at the local Dillons (Kroger). I had to run in to deposit my paycheck and pick up a prescription so I thought I would check things out while I was in there. Good thing I did. 

1 Gillette shaving cream

2 bottles of Pantene

2  tubes of Colgate toothpaste

1 Colgate toothbrush 

3 cans of Van Camps pork and beans (bbq season is upon us!)

1 Dial handsoap

1 Downy Unstoppables (mildly obsessed with these, have you tried them?)

1 head of Romaine lettuce

Grand total $5 and change. Not bad if I say so myself. 

Dillons deals.

If you have any questions about what kind of deals I used just let me know. I use coupons a lot and I also always price match at Wal-Mart. Such an easy way to save money even though it does take a little bit of time.
