This week was all about the Costco Run. We only go every 8 weeks, so when we do I get excited. 1- Because I love all natural and organic products which you can only get at Costco in the States (not in Canada!) and 2- I love getting stuff in bulk for cheap!
But, before we get to the details of our special trip here are the other great deal we scored this week:
Walmart:
Campbell's Broth: on sale. $2.00X2 = $4.00 - $100 WUB 2 = $3.00 = $1.50 per carton
Paper Towel (8 pk): on sale. $2.97 - $2.00 = $0.97 cents!
Minigo Yogurt (6pk): $2.87X2 = $5.74 - 2X$0.50 = $4.74 = $2.37 per pack
Black Diamond Cheese Bar: $5.97 (no coupons but a really good deal)
Eyeliner: $1.00 (no coupons but a really good deal)
Avacado: 67 cents X 4 = $2.68 (no coupons but a really good deal)
**Deal of the Week:
Rice Krispie Granola Bars - FREE!
So the story with this is that these were posted in the store for $1.67. I have a $1.50 off coupon, which would have made them $0.17 cents. However, when I got to the till they rang in as $2.67. So I asked the cashier to apply the sores Scanning Code of Practice (SCOP).
SCOP - If the scanned price of an item is higher than the shelf price or any other displayed price, the customer is entitled to receive the item free, up to a $10 maximum. When identical items are incorrectly priced, the second one will be sold at the correct price.

For those of you that wonder if I keep track of every single grocery item I purchase; yes I do. However, there are a few things my totals do not include, such as: liquor (wine and beer), chocolate (I buy way too much of this to keep track) and pharmaceuticals (except Tylenol/Advil adult and childrens).
