Dollar Tree Shopping, $9.27

I'd like to dedicate this shopping trip to my friend Derick of couPWNing! We've been wanting to see someone's Dollar Tree haul since they started taking coupons last week.  I finally got up the courage to give it a try!

10 Boxes of Dulce de Leche Cheerios, $1 each
Used 5 $1/2 from 8/5 GM

2 Dial NutriSkin Hand Soap, $1 each
2 Dial Basics HypoAllergenic Bar Soaps (3 pk), $1 each

Used $1/1 from 8/5 RP

Subtotal: $8.60, Total: $9.27 for 23 items!

Since Dollar Tree started accepting manufacturer coupons last week, I've heard a lot of mixed reports.  I'm happy to report that my trip went pretty smoothly!  For whatever reason, the cashier told me that they couldn't take more than one "like" coupon in a transaction, so he broke it up into 5 separate transactions.  I didn't mind, as long as he was accepting them all! :)  It was a slow process, because each coupon had to be read and put in manually, but overall I was pleased with my trip and very patient cashier.  It was obvious that this was overwhelming, as to be expected with something new, but all turned out!

Dominick's Shopping, $4.11

Have I mentioned how much I'm loving the Kraft Catalina going on right now?!

10 Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh (9 oz), $3.99 each
Personalized price of $2.89 on Just for U
$1.11/1 Store coupon on Just for U (Comes off all 10.  One time only.)
Used 4 $1/1 printables

Subtotal: $13.80, Total: $14.11
Got back $10 Catalina from Kraft
Net Cost of $4.11

That works out to $.41 per 9 oz package, or about $.73 per pound!  Woohoo!

Subtotal: $19.14, Total: $22.42
"Paid" with $19 in ECBs and $3.42 OOP
Got back $19 in ECBs
Net Cost: $3.42...BUT...

Right as the cashier scanned my ECBs, I remembered that I was going to use my 25% off coupon that was e-mailed to me.  Usually the cashier asks me if I want to use it, but she didn't.  Grrrr...  So I asked for the manager.  He totaled up my "regular priced" items (razors, hair color, clean & clear) which came to $29.96 and gave me 25% of that total in cash back.  So after getting $7.49 cash back, my Net Cost for this trip is a $4.07 Money Maker!
