Kroger & Kmart Miscellany
June 19th, 2007My Kroger bargain shopping last week was cut a little short due to a Father’s Day trip, but I ended the week with about 35 packages of free lunchmeat and $3 profit (after taxes). They’re in the freezer and we’re set for a while.
And here’s a photo of one of my Kmart bargains:
Fisher Price Sing & Go Choo-Choo Gift Set - orig. $35, clearanced for $3.50 but not marked. (Only the sets with the extra animal (alligator) are on clearance). It’ll make a great gift!
Finally, I happened to find another good deal at Kroger this week (not quite as good as free….)
-When you buy 3 General Mills cereals this week, you get 2 half-gallons of milk for free (In the same transaction)
-Honey Nut Cheerios, new Cheerios Crunch, and Cinnamon Toast Crunch are on sale 3 for $5
-My Kroger had coupon dispensers on the cereal aisle for $1 off any 2 Cheerios.
-A month-long Catalina promotion gives you a coupon at checkout for 1 free gallon of milk when you buy 3 General Mills cereals. This is in addition to the 2 free half gallons.
So, for buying 3 Honey Nut Cheerios and using a $1 off coupon, you get
*3 boxes of cereal
*2 half gallons of milk
*1 gallon of milk
for $4 net cost
ACK! I can’t believe that Fisher-Price Choo Choo is only $3.50!?! I gotta find me a local KMart (oddly enough we hardly have any in our area. It’s all Target.) My parents just bought the same exact set (minus that alligator) for my younger son’s 2-year-old birthday last month! He absolutely LOVES it. I hadn’t realized the animals come out of the train and are fairly poseable too. Plus, the train can move by itself. And most important of all… there’s a way to control the volume! Wooooo!
But man, $3.50?!? How could anyone NOT buy one. Heck, I’d buy JUST the alligator for $3.50!
