Big Savings Shopping in Colorado Springs!

These are the $.99 items.
So, I went to Colorado Springs on Tuesday to pick up Alexia. A friend of mine went with me. She is the queen of coupons as far as I am concerned! We went to Target first and with coupons from Target for the market pantry fruit snacks and Mfg coupon for Johnson and Target coupons for Johnson toiletries I spent just $.99 on these 6 items. It is fun to watch the cashiers expression!!

Then we went on to Archivers - which I have never been to before - and was that a fun stop!!! I can't wait to go back!! No coupons for that store but I will for my next visit as I am signed up with them now. I have one in my e-mail for $3 off $15 purchase.

Oh yeah, there isn't tax on food in the Springs and the King Soopers (City Market) doubles coupons!! Very nice :)

We went to King Soopers where I got Quaker hot cereal for $.50/box and free Quaker Quakes snack.....

We then went to Sams club - can't use coupons there but I got a few good bargains like the big container of taco seasoning for about $4 and 2 large pkgs of yeast for about $3.50....

We then stopped at Safeway and I got the items in the next picture for $3.48. The sauve was part of the buy 10 select items and get $5 off and it was also B2G1F. Everything except the Windex was part of the 10 item promo. The Polmolive was free after using the coupon, and the
Halls I actually made money on with a coupon for a free one up to $2.29. The pasta/rice/dressing I used coupons for also.

These are the $3.48 items.
A fun day of shopping and we have Alexia home for almost 2 weeks!!

Found this picture of the building I work in - Hope's Castle. The front door is guarded by a suit of armour!
