So much fun at Albertson's!

It all started when I spotted a coupon for buy a Sara Lee hot dog bun package &
a Ball Park Frank package and get a 12pk of Coke Zero free...hmm..well
Albertson's has Coke B2G2F (at an absurdly elevated regular price!!).

So the buns were $2. I checked on the hot dogs. $2.99 but what do you know?
There is a sign B1G2F. Buy ONE get TWO free??? I gotta make this work.

My poor children. The cart was already bulging because I had a ton of the free
Kraft coupons left and I was having fun with those, but then we added all these
buns and hot dogs too.

Up to the front of the store we started, yes we did. Had to fit 12 Coke 12packs
in the cart. We ended up carrying the last few in our arms, as nothing more
would fit.

My total before savings card and coupons was $429.88. My total after cards,
coupons, etc was $53.99. $7.20 of that was bottle deposit.

Here is how it ran down:
6 packages of buns at $2.00 ($12)
6 packages of hot dogs at $2.99 B1G2F ($5.98)
6 12 pk of Coke Zero at $1 (the max value on coupon was $4.99) ($6.00)
6 12 pk of Coke Zero for FREE (the B2G2F at als)

So my total for 6 pck of buns, 6 hot dogs, 12 coke 12 pakcs was $23.98

Oh and I used a $10 off $50 Safeway coupon. So really it wasn't $23.98 but
more like $19.90 (the $10 coupon saved me about 17%). AND I got that 17% off my entire bill which did include the bottle deposit so take off another $1.22 .....drum roll please

$18.68!!!!!
