I didn't know where else to post this:
We have a local mom and pop type store called Churchill's here in my area.... I just have to brag about this!
this is the best deal I have ever gotten on groceries!!!!

they had a $5 off the purchase of $10 or more in Gen Mills items and some pretty good deals with the coupons on top of it. so here is what I got:
3 pkg Toaster Strudels
4 Pills Crescent Rolls
2 pkg Yoplait go-gurt
2 pkg rice a roni
2 pkg John Morrell Smoked Sausage

all these 13 items above for only $3.26!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I also bought store brand dozen large eggs and Mustard for 99 cents each
which made the total of the bill = $4.36

my total before coupons was $21.86
that is 76% savings

Are you kidding me?!?! you OWN Giant Eagle!!!

they put an ad in our neighbor who gives us the paper's Ad section... they have an 8 week instore coupon pack that started Sunday we got in the mail... if you didn't get one they have extra at the store. the Store manager was really nice, since they were out of the Yoplait kids Dora Crap, he let me use those coupons on the Go-gurts instead and the Rice a roni's were free after the Smart-source Printable.

I am looking forward to pairing up the 8 weeks worth of store coupons with my MC's!!!!

Wow! That's amazing! I always get so impressed at the stuff that some people manage to snag with store discounts and coupons combined. I never seem to get it together and catch any of these great deals.

We have a store in our town called the Grocery Outlet; it's a small chain that offers some incredible bargains. They had two banded Skippy Naturals in the large size for 2.99. We bought three; one for the kitchen cupboard and five for the pantry! They've always got at least one excellent loss-leader and if it's something we can use, we scarf up as many as possible; there's usually no limit.
