Kroger Deals 11/5 - 11/11

Instead of posting every sale item this week with coupon match-ups, I am going to do something a little different this time...

First off, I want to let everyone know that my circular is for the Houston / Sugar Land area. My store will triple coupons up to .39¢ and double up to .50¢

*My regular store will only double or triple 1 like coupon per transaction.
Example: Kroger has Suddenly Salad on sale for $1 per box. I have three .50¢ off coupons. The registers will only double the first coupon, the other 2 will be accepted at face value.

While this is still a good deal, this is not the best deal. I usually break up my purchases into 2 seperate transactions. If your stores have not changed the programming of their registers, then you should be able to get even better deals than what I'm going to post.

If you would like to view this week's circular first, go here.

Here's how to get 10 items for $6

Buy 2 boxes of Toaster Strudels $1.50
Print 2 $1 off coupon from here or here

Buy a 3rd box of Toaster Strudels $1.50
Use the .35¢ off coupon from the 9/7 GM insert

Buy 4 pouches of Betty Crocker Cookie Mix $1.50
Use 2 - .75¢ off coupons from coupons.com and 2 - .75¢ from here

Buy Dial Soap $1.00
Use the .30¢ off coupon from 10/5 SS

Buy 1 box Super Pretzel $1.50
Use the .75¢ coupon from the 9/28 RP

Buy 1 box Orville Redenbacher popcorn $1.50
Use the .40¢ off coupon from the 10/12 SS

These 10 items should come out to $6 after the instant $5 off your total and coupons.

***************

Here is the second scenerio:

Buy 2 boxes of Toaster Strudels $1.50
Print 2 $1 off coupon from here or here

Buy a 3rd box of Toaster Strudels $1.50
Use the .35¢ off coupon from the 9/7 GM insert

Use 2 $1/2 coupons from here

Buy Dial Soap $1.00
Use the .30¢ off coupon from 10/5 SS

The grand total for this transaction should be $1.55 for all 10 of the items listed above after the instant $5 off and coupons.

Banana Muffins

Here is a good recipe to use up some bananas that are overripe:

Ingredients:
2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs, beaten
5 average sized bananas mashed
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon (or more to taste)
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ginger

Directions:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt.
In a seperate bowl mix butter and brown sugar until creamy and there are no lumps. Stir in eggs and mashed bananas until well blended. Stir the banana mixture into the flour mixture; stir by hand until flour is mixed in (do not overstir the batter by using a blender or the texture of the muffins will be lost).

Put the batter into a greased muffin pan. Bake for 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool 2-3 minutes before removing from pan, and finish cooling on wire rack.

Optional:
For a crunchy topping, mix 3 tablespoons brown sugar with 1 tablespoon water and spread on tops of muffins about 10 minutes before they are done. You may need to make more topping mix depending on how much you want on top.

This recipe makes aprox. 15 muffins

Free Pringles!!!!

I won a Kmart / Hulk Contest and I ended up with 15 coupons for FREE cans of Pringles!

The only downside to this is that there is no Kmart within 400 miles of where I live and the coupon says that's where it has to be redeemed :(

So my loss is your gain! I am giving away 5 coupons to 3 readers.
How do you get these you may wonder? Either send me an email at myspotwebmaster@yahoo.com or leave me a comment with your email address in it. The first 3 people to reply will get these coupons, if they agree to send a SASE (self addressed stamped envelope).

These coupons are valid until 4/30/2009 and have a max retail value of $1.19
**UPDATE** This giveaway is now closed
comments have been closed for this giveaway as well, if you have any questions please send me a message at the email address above :)

Kashi has a new $2 off coupon for their new Cereal bars, click here to print (don't forget to try pressing the back button for a second one)

These sure do look yummy! I haven't checked the price on these yet, but my best guess is to try Wal-mart first for these since they usually have the lowest everyday price on Kashi foods.
