Today I completed the Duncan Hines Brownie Mix deal at Foodlion. Foodlion has the brownies on sale 10 for $10 they are regularly priced at my local Foodlion at $1.83. I had 20 35 cents off coupons. I considered holding the coupons until March 12th when another local grocery store is having triples but after doing the math I decided to part with them this week.
Retail price $1.83 x 20 = 36.60
On Sale price $1.00 x 20 = 20.00
Coupons .35 x 20 = 7.00
My OOP $13.00 and my savings from retail price was $23.60 not including tax.
Not a bad day of savings for a few minutes of work!
I have been thinking about the upcoming triples and wondering if it was a mistake but after calculating an almost 64% savings at Foodlion this week I decided not to gamble. The other grocery store's retail price is higher and if the brownie mix was not on sale I would actually spend more money going with the triple deal. If the brownie mix was on sale with the triple deal I probably could have snagged a better deal but would have had to make multiple trips since they only allow 4 of the same coupons with each visit. Today, was not exactly pennies on the dollar but I will take 64% off and have a nice stock pile of brownie mix.
I plan to complete the CVS L'Oreal ECB deal today and I will be reporting on those numbers soon. I had to send the wife with the coupons, ECBs, CVS sale paper and instructions since she needs to choose the items. I think these numbers are going to be awesome!
