Shopping day

I went to several stores today trying to get several items. Remember I don't have stores like Kroger or Publix to shop at, you know stores that have actual sales and promotions. I have to stick with HEB, Walmart, Walgreens, and Dollar General.


Dollar General:
2 spices: $1
Ritz Crackers: $2.35, on sale for $ 2 - $1 MQ = $1

Total before sales and Q = $3.35
Total sales = $0.35
Total Q = $1
Total OOP = $2

Walmart:
1 box Panko bread crumbs: $1.62 (these were $2 something at HEB)
1 box All-Bran cereal (for the beasts): $3.16 - $1 MQ = $2.16
1 bag butterscotch morsels: on sale for $1.78 - $0.50 MQ = $1.28
2 bakery reduction products: originally $4.50, reduced to a total of $2.70

Total before sales and Q = $11.53
Total sales = $2.27
Total Q = $1.50
Total OOP = $7.76

HEB:
1 10 lb bag of potatoes: $3.59 on sale for $1.49 (less than the cost of a 5 lb bag)
1 pork loin = $4.20
1 tub of butter spread = $0.74
1 dz eggs = $0.98
1 block cheddar = $1.67
1 c yogurt = $0.39
1 bag tortilla chips = $2
1 Clif bar = $1
1 container of salt = $0.34
1 baking powder = $0.99
1 bottle teriyaki sauce = $1.44
1 can tomato = $0.60
1 box baking soda = $0.51
1 bag Flamin Hot Cheetos ( I wonder why those aren't pictured?) = $0.99
1 jar Bama jelly = $1.25
1 can black beans = $0.62

Total before sales and Q = $21.61
Total sales = $0.35
Total Q = NONE (Depressing I know)
Total OOP = $19.21

Walgreens:
2 boxes of Kotex tampons: on sale for $3 each - 2 $1 MQ = $4 (I was supposed to get a $1 RR, but the cashier didn't give it to me, and I forgot about it until I was at a different store.)
1 tube of Garnier Nutrisse exfoliating cleanser: $5.99 on sale for $4.49 - $5MQ = $0.51 overage

Total before sales and Q = $12.57
Total sales = $2.08
Total Q = $7
Total OOP = ZERO ( I found an old gift card and it still had money on it = $3.78 on GC)

I also bought some dog food and bones. This is the depressing part, I spent $107.67 on the dogs and that will only last about 3 months.
