Publix, ALDI, and CVS 10-27-18

Today I did the week's worth of shopping.  My goal is to stay under $100 for groceries and CVS coupon shopping, but I went over this week.  S'okay.  I was under last week - while I was dealing with the flu, my mom went grocery shopping for me (and I spent $60).  Aren't moms great??

 At Publix I spent $51.26, and saved $44.68, which is 47%.  Not too bad, considering I only used one coupon.  The rest (besides the milk) was buy one, get one free sales.

Here is my ALDI trip.  If I was trying to be super good with my budget, I would have only bought one pot roast, instead of three.  Instead, I was just thinking about stocking up.

I spent $58.96, $33.40 of that was the three pot roasts.  After looking everything up, I would have spent $64.53 at Walmart.  That's a savings of only $5.57.  Nothing amazing, but still cheaper.

Finally was CVS.

Not pictured - two 4pks of disposable Schick razors I
donated to a women's shelter

That Reese's may have been eaten on the way home.  ;-)

Here are my CVS sales:
2 4pks Schick disposable razors
On sale, B1G1 50% off
Used $3 CVS paper coupon
Used $5 Manufacturer's coupon
I paid $5.48 for both, or $2.74 each

3 Covergirl blush
Original price $5.39 each
Used $4 off $15 coupon
When you spend $15, get $8 bucks back
I paid $4.17 for all 3, or $1.39 each

Reese's cups
On sale for $0.99
Used $0.74 paper coupon
I paid $0.25

Original price for all $35.40
I paid $9.90
I saved $25.50, which is 72%

If I bought those few things from CVS at Walmart, I would have spent $23.15.  Since I only spent $9.90, I saved $13.25, which is 57%.

So, my totals for today are:
Publix - $51.26
ALDI - $58.96
CVS - $9.90
Total - $120.12

I saved:
Publix - $44.68
ALDI - $5.57
CVS - $25.50
Total saved - $75.75, which is 39%.

Not amazing like my coupon days, but pretty good for shopping sales only.  (Well, I had a plan for CVS.)
