Oh and I still have a $3 Catalina leftover
I finally had to breakdown and organize my pantry!
SO HERE'S THE BREAKDOWN:
Purchased a lot of 20 coupons on EBay for $1/2 Post Pebbles cereal for $1.99 (I figured that cost into my total out of pocket for the cereal above). (I purchased these from a seller in Tacoma to ensure I would get them before the sale was over and before the doublers in the Albertsons ad expired- which was today- 3/20). The other coupons I had came from my Sunday paper and my mom's Sunday papers - I had (1) coupon for $1/2 on the Pebbles cereal and (1) coupon for $1/2 of the Honey Bunches of Oats cereal. Then I grabbed from my mom (2) coupons for $1/2 of Post Cereal (I believe these coupons were in a Sunday paper insert last month). And I know those numbers don't add up but I'm thinking the person who sent me the 20 coupons may have sent me a few extra because I can't account for the extra coupons otherwise that got me 4 more boxes. So I headed to the store with my coupons all in hand (I had already picked up 3 Albertson ads with doublers in them- a total of 9 doublers so I needed 7 more ads- which I got from the customer service desk at Albertsons).

So I had a couple of my sisters helping out with these transactions so I didn't have to do them all myself but I did do quite a few and I did make two trips to Albertsons on Saturday (good thing my parents live close to it)- I also did not feel bad taking that many boxes from the store because they had TONS more for everyone else. The funniest part of all of this is that I actually took pennies to the store with me to pay for my transactions :).
By the way the normal price on those boxes of cereal is $4.19 and $4.89 for the Honey Bunches of Oats.
