Last night I had to run by Kroger and grab some milk. I buy 2 gallons at a time because we go through it quickly! I decided to go to the Kroger at Goodman and Getwell because they seem to have better clearance items than the Olive Branch Kroger. Well, it paid off! I bought my 2 gallons of milk for $5.16 and then they had Corn Flakes w/Honey on clearance for $1.09. I had a coupon for $1/2. I bought 4 boxes for $.58 each. They also had Quaker Oatmeal w/ cinnamon on clearance for $1.49. No coupons for this one but I saved $1.40 off of the regular price and my kids love it. My favorite deal of all was on Mahatma Yellow Rice. We love this rice. It was on Kroger's regular sale for $.75. I had a coupon for $.75/2 so it's like getting one free. I also had a coupon for $1.00 off any Mahatma rice so I made money on that coupon. The final cost for rice was 2 bags for $.16 each. My final Kroger bill should have been $22.97 but after clearance price and coupons it was $10.67...if only I had coupons for milk!
