Super Shopping at Wal-Mart 2.28.10

Hello! This morning I went to Wal-Mart to price-match sales from this week’s grocery stores. See the longer list of sales in the Grocery Deal post, still good through Tuesday. (G) Greer’s, (FW) Food World, (WD) Winn-Dixie, (B) Barnes, (BL) Big Lots and CVS. The Price-Match price is on the left. If I used a Q, the final price is on the right.

My total cost was around $45 but I paid $20 for a savings of 55%! Did my math wrong earlier!
Thanks to Hip2Save for the Big Lots price-match heads up for All and V8!

$0.99 Newspaper
$1.11 Bananas at $0.49/lb (great price!)
$1.64 Red Delicious Apples at $1/lb
$2.50 Earthgrains Bread x2, -$0.55 x2 PRINT= $1.95 x2
(G) $1 Store Brand Brown Rice, 2lb bag
*I forgot to tell them to PM so I paid $1.52!
(G) $1 Head of lettuce, -$1 Q= FREE
(B) $1.49 Broccoli bunch, -$1 Q= $0.49
(WD) $2 Bertolli Sauce x2, -$1 Q x2 = $1x2
(BL) $1.50 V8 Juice x 2, -$1 Q x2 PRINT or PRINT= $0.50 x2
(BL) $2.50 All 3x, -$1x2 PRINT= $1.50x2
*The coupon has a pix of All 2x and All 3x but it says for 50 oz or more. I mentioned that I wasn’t sure if it would work but she looked at it and pushed the coupon through.
(FW) $0.59 Del Monte can veg x8, -two $1 off 4 PRINT= $2.72
* can of veg only $0.34 each!
(CVS) $0.49 Campbells Cream of Chicken x4, -$1 off 4 PRINT= $0.96
*Campbells only $0.24 each! It’s on the front page of the CVS ad as Campbell’s or Swanson soup 10.75 oz excludes cream of mushroom. So my interpretation was that condensed cream of chicken soup is NOT excluded. It’s up to your cashier to accept or negate. So pray for a nice cashier!

A dear friend snagged Earthgrain coupons at the Commissary for me: Save $1 off produce when you buy Earthgrains. I stacked this coupon with the $0.55 off Earthgrains PRINT Q. So, not only only did I get the lettuce FREE and the apples for $0.11, but the bread is even cheaper at $1.95 a loaf. Not bad for all natural bread and it tastes great! It really helps to advertise to friends and family that you coupon. Maybe more of them will give me their extra coupons!

No Grocery Deals Posted This Week!

I don't think I can have a grocery post up by Saturday. Sorry everyone! This week is VBS and I've been hanging out with my hubby every night after dropping off the kids at church. Plus, next week is the start of the All You Grocery Challenge and I have been reorganizing and preparing mentally for that. So please visit these store websites and other posts for the deals. And we'll be back on track next Wednesday!

How To: Price Match at Walmart

I hope you are all enjoying the posts of all the store deals for our Pensacola area. Like you, I want to save money, time and gas. So by price-matching (PM) at Wal-Mart I am able to do just that. To make the most of this customer perk, it is important to learn a few strategies.

Wal-Mart price-matches grocery, drugstore, department store, home improvement and office supply stores, as long as the store is in the same city and their ads are in the store's sales flier. Each register has these fliers but bring yours anyway, if you have them. You can print the page with the item or buy the paper Weds for grocery deals, Sundays for others (department and drugstores).

1. Have a game plan. Make a separate grocery list just for price match items. Write down the store name as well as the sale price. You can also print out a copy of my Wal-Mart Price Match List of the week.


2. Do your checkout when few people are in line.


3. Find a friendly cashier. Maybe one you've formed a rapport with already. I like my Filipina cashiers and others that go to my church because they know me.


4. Warn the cashier you have price-match items before she scans them.


5. Separate price-match items from your other items at checkout. You do not need to do a separate transaction for the non-price match items, just move them aside.


6. Do not rush the cashier. She needs to input each price-match separately and can easily make a mistake. So watch the register carefully.


7. Do not fight with the cashier. If she doesn't want to honor your price-match, and you've politely asked her to reconsider, then just put the item back. You can also take it to customer service later.


8. When you are done, thank the cashier for her patience. Cashiers are generally happy to find out the deals for themselves. So start connecting with the cashier and they'll look forward to seeing how much you'll save next time.
   

You'll be surprised how quickly your savings will add up by price-matching. And by doing the majority of your shopping at one place, you'll less likely want to do extra trips at other stores. Remember to use your coupons too for maximum savings.

Barnes Deals, May 27- June 2

If you plan to use these prices to price-match at Wal-Mart, remember that they have a copy of the ad at each register too. But I rarely have to show them where it is on the ad.

Wal-Mart Price Match

Every Wednesday I plan to post the best deals for Barnes (B), Winn-Dixie (WD), Publix (PUB) and Food World (FW). Then I will post a grocery list for price-matching these sale items at Wal-Mart. Why run 3 errands when you can buy it all at Wal-Mart? However, Wal-Mart does not price match BOGO items, or anything that is a % off sale. The actual dollar amount price must be printed in the sales ad.

Here is what you do at check-out:
1. Have a copy of this list.
2. Tell the cashier you have items to Price Match
3. Put these items in the back, keep them together.
4. Before she rings up the item, tell the cashier the price you are matching for and where it's on sale(ex: Winn-Dixie $0.99/lb)
5. She should have a copy of the ad and may or may not look through it first.
6. Check your receipt to make sure the prices are right.
7. Thank the cashier for her patience when you're done!
Happy Shopping!
