Marsh put select Kelloggs cereals on sale this week for 50% off. I was lucky to have printed the $5/5 boxes coupon a week or so ago. That means I got 5 boxes of applejacks, fruit loops and corn pops for just $.76 per box!!!!
On to the drug stores.
I didn't take a picture. Yesterday I was wrangling Allyson who was home sick with scarlet fever and I just didn't have an ounce of energy left. I mean, you've seen how scattered I've been on this here blog. My time has been abducted by aliens I'm afraid.

Marsh Sale starting 2/16/12
When I read through the Marsh circular for this week- I just knew I had to get over there!
Total cash out of pocket for everything in the picture was $29.07. Plus I earned 2 $4 rewards ($8 total) for my next shopping trip. I actually earned 3, but I used one on one of my transactions today. In that picture is 6 boxes of cereal bars, 16 cups of yoplait greek yogurt, 2 gogurts, 8 boxes of fruit snacks, 16 chocolate bars (putting them in the freezer for upcoming smores season!), 6 hamburger helpers, 6 double packs of instant mashes potatoes, two poptarts and two kelloggs krave cereals. Oh- and Sam. He's in the picture too : )
All total between the store sale prices, promotions and manufacturers coupons, I saved $116.88- plus I still have the left over $8 for next time that I earned (buy 8 of certain items, get $4- the yoplait greek yogurts were part of that deal at $1 each! Bought 8- used 4 $.50/2 mq's that doubled to $1- paid $4 and earned $4- FREE!) (Keep in mind- I did three transactions with the items in that promotion because I wasn't sure if I could earn more than one in each order).
I was kind of hoping that the GM cereal sale (buy for instantly save $4) included some of the new cheerio flavors that we have been getting high value q's on, or the new frosted toast crunch- but that is a no go on both.
I didn't have any q's for the hot dogs, but buy 1 get 1 at $2.29 per pack (makes them $1.15 each) is a good deal in the winter months. PLUS- don't forget to go to the Marsh Website and print your coupon for a free flat bread (I found them in the deli/gourmet cheese area) when you spend $50. Just be sure to hand over that coupon FIRST if you are using coupons, because if your coupons drop you below fifty and they try to scan it last, then it won't go through.
Good shopping day for some great items- none of which are super healthy, but will serve as great desperate dinners or treats for lunch boxes!

CVS again
I went back to CVS for some stuff I missed. CVS seems to be where it is at this week!
#1 transaction
3 schick womens shaving cream $4 each
-3 $.55 mq's
$10.35 (I used some cvs bucks- but lets pretend I didn't- kay?)
Earned $12 in CVS bucks ($4 for each shaving creme)
#2 transaction
1 Physicians formula organic mascara $10.49
-$2 mq peelie that was on the package (score!)
-$8 CVS bucks from transaction #1
$.49 plus tax
Earned $7 in CVS bucks (physicians formula wyb $10)
#3 transaction
3 Mountain Dew 3/$10 (you know- for my dan the man)
1 pack of gum $1 (needed something else to use all my cvs bucks-too bad I already got my free cadbury egg!)
$.00 plus tax
Earned $4 in CVS bucks
So- for $33.49 in merchandise I paid $10.84 out of pocket (in theory- but I did roll some CVS bucks) AND still have $4 CVS bucks for next time!!!!! I was going in to buy the mountain dew anyway- because my husband drinks it all the time. So basically I got the rest of the stuff for free in addition to what I was planning to spend in the first place.
Man I love coupons.
