Bonanza in the Grocery Cart

five 12 packs for $1.00

These are practically free Cokes. I used the 3 coupons for $3 off, $9 off my total. Then, an employee in Walmart showed me the Target ad in the top right corner of the Target paper.

 

5 for $10

 

The employee was helping me by putting these in the electric cart, so you can barely see the two regular Cokes. See the red strip of the carton below the ad and above the three coupons?

 

The original price was 5 x $4.98=$24.90.

 

The 5 Cokes rang up at $10 per the Target ad after the WM Price Match, and then I  had the coupons applied. My total was $1.  I was so pleased and the employees were extremely happy for me.

 

 

I figured it up with my trusty calculator. I paid $0.0415 for each can. Let's make that a nickel per can.

 

4 cents for each can of Coke

 

I saved 96%. My personal best is 97%. But, I am not complaining. Since I could not afford anything else at the store Wednesday night, I could only get this. I did not buy only the Cokes to be able to report and high percentage of savings.

 

 

Savings= 96%

 



 

Lest you think I drink more Coke than I do, the last Cokes I bought are not gone. I called exbf and asked him what he wanted--Diet Coke. He hates my Caffeine Free Diet Cokes. I do not believe that he can tell there is no caffeine by taste. That's okay because he won't drink my Caffeine Free Diet Cokes. Oh, I would share.

 

So, that was my thrill for Wednesday night.

 

Your turn

Do you drink Coke products? They are cheap at Target. And, if you have coupons, now is the time to use them. Do you work the mycokerewards.com for Coke rewards? Have you gotten a 96% savings on anything at the grocery? 

Target Did What?

If you blush at strong language, or are offended easily, or have religious compunctions about scatalogy, profanity, vulgarities, obscenities, or blush at those, you might not want to read this post from Busted Knuckles.  Target, it seems, turned away children with money to spend, lots of money. Thankfully, I have been in Target twice. It seems like a place I do not want to spend money. Oh, read the comments because there is one comment about how the guy's adult son was treated.
