Last Minute Harris Teeter Super Double Deals!

I did my last Super Doubles trip to Harris Teeter this morning and used 20 coupons. My total was $9.96, which I thought was a little high. When I got home and carefully reviewed my receipt, I found that 3 of my coupons had not doubled. I received a $3.00 Catalina from Starkist from this trip and and completed the Saving Star offer to get back $15.00 when you spend $30.00 on the Gourmet Selects! 


When I went to get the free French's spicy brown mustard I noticed that the French's Dijon and Honey Dijon were on sale for $2.00 and had $1.00 purple peelie coupons on them. I wonder if those are the 3 coupons that didn't double?


I also noticed these Garnier Fructis items on clearance for $4.28. If your store has them,, they would be 28 cents with the $2.00 coupon from the 1/12 Red Plum insert or a money maker if you haven't used your $1.00 ZVR yet!


And here is a Facebook coupon that makes a nice match-up for dog food:

Beneful 3-can pack Chopped Blends - $2.19
- $2.00 off 2 coupon that you can print HERE

My First Grocery Store Dumpster Dive!


I recently joined a Facebook page for dumpster divers, where people post photos and stories of their "scores". I was amazed at how many folks find perfectly good food behind some supermarkets - particularly Aldi's! I did a run behind my Giant and Harris Teeter supermarkets, only to find that they have giant compactors connected to the back of the store by a tube, so that whatever they toss gets smashed and shipped to a landfill. 

This morning my husband had an errand in Winchester, so I tagged along just to check out the Aldi's there. I went inside first and didn't find any really hot deals. The prices were lower than the grocery stores in my area, but nowhere near as low as what I am used to paying with coupons. Aldi's is a German chain with a no-nonsense system and does not accept coupons. I did buy a 3 lb. bag of apples for $3.39, which at $1.13 pound is a pretty good price.

Then we drove around back and I peeked into the dumpster. I couldn't believe my eyes! About 15 loaves of bread, a box of cereal, and other assorted goodies were inside, but they were all out of my reach. I grabbed what I could get easily and ran back to the truck! 

Here is what I brought home:




The orange juice says "best by April 9, 2014" and was tossed because the top was smashed in! It was tricky to open, but we managed to cut it with scissors and poured it into a pitcher.

I suspect the hummus just didn't move because it was spicy (it has cayenne pepper in it) and was disposed of to make room for fresher merchandise. It still has a tight plastic seal on the top, under the lid, and says "sell by April 14, 2014".

The bread says "sell by February 28, 2014" and I have no idea why it was thrown out. I opened it, and and it smelled fresh, so we used it to make tuna melts for dinner!
