    Default Slow Sales Week in Indiana

    And that's not a bad thing. I need to take a break! Our fridge and freezer are overflowing and we just don't need anything aside from milk and bread. I've looked at the Meijer ad that starts tomorrow here in Indy and I don't see anything that I want or we need. Same goes for the Marsh ad. I haven't looked at the Kroger ad but I am doubtful there is anything super to get there as well. Might just be a very quiet week for me. I've already gone $10 over budget due to purchasing $80 of steaks, ground chuck and boneless chicken breast, but we have a good bit of meat now. The only thing I would consider buying is pork chops, so I'm keeping my eyes open for any deals there.

    I think the Marsh sale is better than Meijer this coming week. My plan for tomorrow:

    Buy 10 get $5 off and $3 OYNO

    2 Barilla pasta $0.75ea after sale, use $1 IPs= $0.25MM ea
    4 Red Gold canned tomatoes $0.49ea after sale, use $0.50 and $0.75 IPs= MM
    2 Oreos $2.29ea, use $1 TP coupons from a trade= $1.29ea
    2 other sale promotion items, maybe Cheez-Its $1.49ea
    Lettuce $0.99

    I think the Barilla pasta is a good deal even without coupons, since you get that extra $3 OYNO after the $5 off. Does that $3 Cat roll, or is it for next week?

    I used all of my Barilla printable Qs yesterday at Meijer. I might take another look at the 10/$5 and $3 OYNO deals but am happy to take a step back. It would be nice to start using the stockpile instead of adding to it constantly, LOL.

    It's a slow deal week everywhere, except Walgreens, and I got everything I wanted there Sunday and Monday. I got DH a few bottles of the Tecnu first aid gel (mechanic) and the Youtheory collagen for a coworker with arthritis who swears by it and lots of Ecotrin for my stepdads daily aspirin regimen.
    I am left with nothing but a bunch of lovely RRs.......

    I saw this as well. I bought 2 dozen last week when they were $1 at Marsh. Might pick up 1 dozen next Tuesday or Wednesday, depending on exp. date.

    If you go to couponnetwork and smartsource .com, look for the Yellow Box Cheerios coupon for .50/1. Yellow Box Cheerios are on sale for $1.67 thru Sunday the 3rd, so .67 after doubled coupon. I will be getting several for our church pantry.
