4th of July savings!!
PostedI hate that it's been so long since I have posted, but time has been very tight! I barely have time to clip and organize my coupons, much less post deals, but I will try to get better! It's been over a year since my last post, but I haven't stopped saving money!

Total:$75.02
-$5.75 Discontinued item discount
-$15.92 sale
-$55.19 coupons
Total OOP: $13.12
This was an awesome trip!! I had $7 Nutro Dog Food coupons & $5 Nutro Cat coupons - no size restrictions. I got the smallest bags that were on sale, plus got the ones that were discontinued so they were marked down an additional 25 - 50% off! This made for great overage! I also used a $5 total purchase Petsmart coupon! Everything will be donated, except the toy - that's for our furbabies! I actually paid $10.95 for just the food (w/o toy)! That's less that the regular cost of just 1 bag of this food!!
After all this driving around, I was low on gas! Plus we are taking a trip this weekend so I needed to fill up! I have been saving my BiLo FuelPerks up for quite a while! I paid $1.46/gallon!! It was cheaper to put 20 gallons in our SUV than to put 9 gallons in our compact car!! I used my Shell giftcard and still have just over $20 left on it! (Plus $10 of that is free from the Publix coupon!)
It was $29.20 to fill up. This would have normally cost me $64.80! That's a $35.60 savings!!
Overall it was a great day of savings!! I love getting good deals and even better, being able to donate items to help a cause without breaking the bank!
Grand Totals
Total OOP:$257.28
Total Savings:$330.45
This does not include the $35.60 saving on gas since I paid with a giftcard. I got $10 in Target giftcards and a $30 rebate! Pretty good day overall!
