Super Savings Saturday - Kroger, Meijer and CVS

I had a pretty good shopping week this week, but will admit that I got a lot of stock up (and random) items. I guess that is the beauty of having a lot of staples on hand from stock piling all year long. I haven't had to buy meat for a couple of weeks now.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Kroger - Total Spent: $49.03 (picture above)

Some of my best deals after sale and/or coupons:

* Tombstone Frozen Pizzas - $1.99/ea
* Goldfish Crackers - $1/ea (using a rain check from last week's sale)
* Halloween Candy - $1.17/bag
* Pillsbury Crescent Rolls - $1/ea
* Kroger Half Gallon Milk - $1/ea
* 8 Pack Kroger Buns - $0.39/ea
* Purex Laundry Detergent - $0.99/ea
* Big K 2 Liters of Soda - $0.39/ea

You can see how I matched up coupons with sales here.
Total Coupon Savings at Kroger: $7.50

Meijer - Total Spent: $20.33, plus earned $2 toward my next purchase

Some of my best deals after sale and/or coupons:

* Jello Pudding - $0.13/ea
* Kraft Shells and Cheese - $0.67/ea

I also went to CVS this week and spent approx. $16 out of pocket, earning $10 ECBs. You can view the details of my transactions here.

Total Coupon Savings at CVS: $10.35
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

My total out of pocket expense this week for groceries/toiletries and household items was $85 and some change. My total coupon savings for this week was $31.35. The best part is that I ended up $77 UNDER budget for the month of October! Unless I missed something. I'm going to double check my numbers just to make sure.
