Barbara had this to say: The Idaho potatoes were on sale at King Soopers for $1. I used 2 .40 coupons that doubled to make them .20/each.
The Hamburger Helper was $1 at King Soopers. I used a .35 coupon that doubled to make it .30
The Krusteaz cookie mix was 1.49 at King Soopers. It was part of the Mega deal wyb 10 you save $5. I used a .55 coupon, plus the .50 for buying 10 made it .49
The Bumbleebee tuna was also part of the Mega deal. It was .49 after buying 10. I used 9 .55 blinkie coupons making each one a moneymaker of .06
I got the Green Giant corn at Walmart for .60/each. I used 2 $1/4 coupons from the Safeway $60 Thanksgiving coupon book to make them .35/each
The Swanson’s chicken broth was .50/each at Walmart. I used 3 $1/4 coupons from the Safeway book to make them .25/each
