Albertson's trip

So I was able to get my hands on a total of 8 Albertson's double coupons (thank you Oma & Opa Pete). I doubled 7 $1.00 off coupons and one .55 off coupon. You could only use 4 coupons per transaction, so I did it in 2 separate transactions as follows:


Kellogg's promo: Save $10 instantly when you buy 10 participating products. Makes it:
6 Kellogg's cereal $1.50 each  
- 5 .70 off manufacturer coupons
4 Kellogg's Pop Tarts (LARGE size!) $1.50 each
- $1.00 peelie on each box
- $1.00 doubled each time

Total spent OOP: $3.83 
(I just realized that I did not use a coupon for the 6th box of cereal. So when I go back this week, I will take one in and get some $ back)
SAVED after coupons and sales: $40.10!

2-liter Pepsi (feeding the habit...) $1.34
Yoplait Yo+ Yogurt (4-pack) $2.99
- $1.00 off manufacturer coupon
- $1.00 doubled
Tropicana 100% OJ 2/$5
- $1.00 off 2 manufacturer
- $1.00 doubled
2 Red Baron Pizza breads $2.50 each
- $1.00 off 2 manufacturer
- $1.00 doubled
Hormel Natural Choice lunch meat $4.99
- .55 off manufacturer
- .55 doubled

Total spent OOP: $12.69  
SAVED (sales & coupons): $14.91
**I looked at the ad before my trip and saw the Hormel meat on sale for $2.38 so I thought WOO-HOO I am going to get this cheap but I didn't pay attention that it was only that price from 3/20 - 3/22. Otherwise I would not have bought it. Little Miss loves ham and I love Little Miss but I do not love paying $4 for lunch meat! So I am not sure if I will take it back or not to get something else that is actually on sale. I'll check the ad that starts on 3/25 and see if it's worth it to exchange.
