My Triple Coupon Trip

Not everything shows up well in the photo, so here's the list of what I got:

Non-triple-coupon items:
Zesta Saltines, 2 boxes, BOGO minus $1 coupon (the only coupon that didn't triple)
Pillsbury Bread Flour, 2 5 lb. bags, 99 cents each (no coupon, just a great sale price)
HT Sugar, 5 lb. bag, 99 cents (eVic special this week)
HT Instant Iced Tea Mix (because I needed it - no coupon)

Triple coupon items: (price paid after coupons were tripled)
14 oz. Heinz ketchup - free
Comet rice - .59
2 boxes Minute Rice - $1 each
2 16 oz. boxes Mueller's pasta (1 spaghetti, 1 macaroni) - .17 each
Idahoan instant mashed potatoes - free
Betty Crocker Warm Delights dessert mix (2) - .39 each
Wishbone Salad Dressing - free
Kozy Shack rice pudding - .5
Country Crock spreadable butter w/ canola oil - .25
Starkist Tuna Salad pouch - free
Jolly Time Popcorn - free
Wacky Mac pasta - free
Kelloggs Poptarts (large box) - .85
Marie Callender's Al Dente pasta dinner (frozen) - .72
Tony's crisp crust party pizza (2) - free (both)
Ground beef - .12 for 1 package, .22 for 2nd package (On sale for $1.59/lb - I had 2 coupons for .50 off ground beef which tripled)

Total before VIC card was scanned: $69.XX

Total after VIC savings came off: $42.XX

Total paid after all coupons: $15.70

If you take out the items which didn't have triple coupons associated with them (tea mix, saltines, flour and sugar), I paid a little less than $7 for all the triple coupon items.

The ground beef coupon is FANTASTIC because you almost never find coupons for fresh meat. Coupon for .50 off ground beef will net you $1.50 off once it triples - combine that with the sale for $1.59 a pound and you'll probably never find hamburger this cheap again!

Smartsource.com for printable coupons for Idahoan potatoes, Marie Callender pasta entrees, Wacky Mac, and more.

NOTE: Both Coupons.com and Smartsource.com have coupons for .50 off Progresso broth. I didn't have any with me today, but I saw that this product would be free after coupons so it's definitely worth printing. (I intend to print some tonight and head back tomorrow.) Bisquick is also a good price after triple coupon (about $1.20 for a 40 oz. box, I think), so print that as well.

The other coupons I used came from Sunday papers.
