Thinking ahead and saving money!

 

Thanks to Michelle for passing along her good deals,

I’m so happy about my purchases today and wanted to share with you.

I volunteered to be in charge of buying & bringing everything for making smores to our church’s Family Camp this summer.  So I was excited to see the great sale at Albertsons today.

Here’s what I got in multiple transactions:

smores

 Each transaction was like this:

3 boxes Honey Maid graham crackers ($2.49 ea.)

3 packages Marshmallows ($1.00 ea.)

3 packages Hershey’s chocolate bars ($3.00 ea.)

=$4.92 !!!

 I did this transaction 4 times today and so I spent a total of $19.68 for  12 boxes of graham crackers, 12 bags of marshmallows & 12 packages of chocolate bars!!! . I loaded them up in this Rubbermaid tub so they’ll keep well and be ready to throw in the van when it is time to go to camp! What a blessing this is to be able to bless so many people at our church camp without breaking the budget.

Just so your readers know, I didn’t buy all of these at one store or in one transaction. I went to 3 different stores, and did multiple transactions at one store.  All of the stores were very well stocked & one even had a tearpad of coupons there and I only used a couple of those, the rest were coupons I had clipped myself or printed off myself.  I wanted to make sure everyone else could do this deal for their campouts too!
