    Default Grocery store success :)

    Dh got paid (his first pay check of this new job) so we went to Price Chopper because they have a good meat stock up sale and they had a couple of other things that I had really good coupons for that made the item free or nearly free, or just a really good deal.

    I just have to share, since I did so well last night!

    Here is what we got/paid:
    Wise chips were b1g1, regular price is $1.69/each. Plus I had a coupon for $1 off 2. PLUS there were three coupons in the store flier for "Double ANY Coupon". They normally only double coupons up to 99c. So I got $2 off with the coupons. I got 4 bags of Wise white cheddar popcorn (the large bags) for $1.38 total, or 35c/bag

    Malt-o-Meal cereal was on sale for 10 for $10. I had coupons for 50cents off one, and they double that. I had 4 of those coupons, so I got 4 bags of cereal for free

    Weaver Chicken patties were on sale (12ct) for $4.99, the sale flier had a store coupon so you could get them for $3.99, I had a coupon for $1 off 2. Plus I had another of those Double ANY coupon coupons. So I got 2 bags of chicken (24 total) for $6.98 That's about a dollar cheaper than the commissary and I didn't have to drive all the way out there, pay the 5% surcharge that the commissary charges (no tax on food here in NY state), or tip a bagger (required at the commissary because baggers ONLY get paid by tips). This is one of those "convenience meals" I don't normally buy. But these two bags will be at least 3 meals for us, plus with dh working until 9pm two nights a week they work for quick meals for him.

    We also got whole chicken for 89c/lb (cheapest you can find it here), a whole ham for 99c/lb, and red grapes for $1.28/lb.

    I was just so excited to get some good deals finally!

    You did good! Love the double coupons and sales at Price Chopper. Luckily my PC doubles all the time.

    Ours doubles all the time too, but usually only up to 99c so if you have a $1 off coupon it doesn't double. Just recently they've had the "double ANY coupon" or even better "triple ANY coupon" weeks in the sales fliers. I really try to take advantage of those

    Thanks ladies
