Target and Aldi deals 3-14-12

This week is a stock up week for tide and toilet paper.  I got tide at Target and toilet paper will be from CVS, where I'll go later this week.  (By the way, this shopping trip just reaffirmed my decision to never buy tide again for myself - it's way too expensive!  But, I have a customer who will use nothing but tide and is willing to pay me (full price) for it, so I'll buy it for her.)

I got all of this from Target for $80.  If you ask me, that's pretty awesome!  Here's how I did it:

(they accidentally charged me for 3, even though I only got two - oops)

Original total - $141.44

Then, I went to Aldi and got all of this for only $18.50!!  Those prices never cease to amaze me.

Total - $18.50
Amazing!  If I went to walmart and bought everything generic like Aldi, I would have spent $26.67.  So, I saved $8.17, or 31%

It's a good day, if you ask me.  Like I said, CVS is coming up later this week.  I know it's going to be a big haul, so I'm putting it off....
