My Latest Shopping Trip Adventures

I ran to the Price Cutter yesterday morning to take advantage of their Kraft B1G1 Sale.. I hit a couple snags along the way, which was not the slightest bit surprising to me. If I ever run into issues, it is almost always at my nearest Price Cutter store. I do love Price Cutter’s sales, their meat markdowns and the fact that they do double coupons. Having said that though, there are a couple things that have bothered me about this store that have NOT changed over the last few years (for me anyway)…

my walmart shopping trip

Here are the deals I picked up on my latest Walmart Shopping Trip. I did quite a bit of price matching today, especially on produce. I had been striking out lately at Aldi as far as their produce selection goes, so I decided to price match at Walmart instead this week. I went early in the morning and took a little time to wander around the store. I usually do not take the time to just kinda shop around, I usually just run in the store with a very specific list and get out as quickly as possible, so it was nice to browse a bit today. I didn’t find anything other than what I had on my list, but I’m glad I had a chance to meander awhile anyway. I was surprised that Walmart still had some Christmas Clearance items, all 75% Off, I found those items way out in the Garden Section. I didn’t find much else in the way of clearance that was of interest to me, but here’s what I did get on this trip:

So, I finally made it to Price Cutter today. I really wanted to get there a lot earlier to take advantage of the hot Red Gold Tomatoes deal, but it has just been kinda crazy the last few days, so I didn’t have a chance to get out until today. I voted, so I finally had a chance to run a few quick errands while I was out. Most of the Red Gold products were completely wiped out (no surprise there), but I was happy that I was able find some left in stock. I also happened across some meat markdowns, which is always great. 🙂 Anyway, here’s my deal from today:

So I finally had a chance to run to Target earlier this week. Unfortunately, it was on a Sunday, so a lot of things I was looking for were out of stock. Hopefully, I’ll have a chance to get there on a day when they have a bit more on the shelves and I can cross off a few more items on my list. We just have the one Target location here in Joplin, so as a result, it’s very popular. 😉 Anyway, I was still able to pick up a few great deals.

My Aldi Shopping Trip Today (Loving the Markdowns!)

This post may contain affiliate links. Read the full disclosure.

by

So, I headed to Aldi late morning-ish today to pick up a few essentials. I was already totally stocked up fresh produce from my last 2 trips, so I just grabbed a few staples. I was surprised how wiped out they were today, I guess they hadn’t had a chance to replenish their shelves. I shouldn’t be surprised though, I know being the only Aldi in Joplin, they get a TON of traffic, so keeping the shelves full must be challenging. Now, don’t get me wrong, I love my coupons and continue to use them at other stores, but Aldi still remains one of my favorite places to grocery shop.

Anyway, I didn’t get everything on my list, but was happy to find markdowns in the meat department again, woot! I also noticed they had quite a few non-food items on clearance towards the front of the store at checkout and also had several markdowns throughout the store. They had 4-packs of canned sparkling juice marked down to $1.25 which was tempting, but I passed this time. Anyway, here’s what I ended up with on my Aldi shopping trip today:

  • 2 packs of Chicken of Chicken Thighs (about 4 lbs. ea.), both had $2.00 off coupons, so each pack was $2.69 & $2.39 after the discounts, so worked out as a great deal!
  • Gallon Skim Milk – $2.81
  • Saltine Crackers (16 oz.) – $0.89
  • Benton’s Fig Bar Cookies (13 oz.) – $0.99
  • Canned Whole Tomatoes (28 oz.) – $0.99
  • Tomato Paste (6 oz.) – $0.39
  • Potato Chips (10.5 oz.) – $1.49
  • Hot Dog Buns (8 ct.) – $0.89
  • Honey Wheat Bread (24 oz.) – $1.29
  • Cheese Singles (16 ct.) – $0.99
  • Taco Seasoning – $0.35 (I seriously need to start making my own taco seasoning as much as we go through it around here!)
  • Pinto Beans (29 oz.) – $1.19
  • Final Cost $18.11

I headed to Price Cutter today to take advantage of their 1-Day Sale this week and to see what other deals I could find. I didn’t run across anything else too spectacular in the store that wasn’t in the ad, but I was really happy with my shopping trip today and was glad everything was well stocked for the sale.
