I&#8217;ve read in some couponers\/bloggers that this is the time to visit the store because some of the products have &#8220;rock&#8221; bottom prices. I hardly use coupons now so I was interested to see if they still have cheap prices even without coupons. So after we had dinner at the Outback, I asked the Hubs to go check it out with me. We got a lot of his fave cereals. \u00a0We stocked up actually because they were like $1.50 each (with coupons, it&#8217;s probably $1). He normally has cereal twice a week, so this will last him for a while.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4535\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4535\" style=\"width: 538px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/calamariqueen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/2014-09-06_dsc_0176-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-4535\" src=\"http:\/\/calamariqueen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/2014-09-06_dsc_0176-1.jpg?w=538\" alt=\"I paid $44 and saved like $71 (i can't find the receipt),but Im sure I paid $44.\" width=\"538\" height=\"358\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.calamariqueen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/2014-09-06_dsc_0176-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.calamariqueen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/2014-09-06_dsc_0176-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.calamariqueen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/2014-09-06_dsc_0176-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 538px) 85vw, 538px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4535\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">I paid $44 and saved like $71 (i can&#8217;t find the receipt),but Im sure I paid $44.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I had rewards points that will expire today,so I wanted to use them. \u00a0I went to walgreens and wasn&#8217;t really planning on buying a specific product. I was planning to get coffee (they&#8217;re on sale) because we always drink coffee, or I can send it to the PI in my next balikbayan box. When I checked the clearance they had their detergent soap for very cheap prices,so I grabbed a few and decided to just forget the coffee! I got 4 cheap lipsticks too($2.50 each,on sale for 69 cents), and packing tape (for packing balikbayan boxes).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4536\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4536\" style=\"width: 538px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/calamariqueen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/2014-09-09_dsc_0257-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-4536\" src=\"http:\/\/calamariqueen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/2014-09-09_dsc_0257-1.jpg?w=538\" alt=\"I paid $9.92 for all,the receipt says I saved $31.50\/79% savings\" width=\"538\" height=\"358\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.calamariqueen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/2014-09-09_dsc_0257-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.calamariqueen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/2014-09-09_dsc_0257-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.calamariqueen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/2014-09-09_dsc_0257-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 538px) 85vw, 538px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4536\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">I paid $9.92 for all,the receipt says I saved $31.50\/79% savings<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>After Wags,off I go to Fred Meyer (they&#8217;re just in the same area) to get some ingredients for butter chicken.
