Couponing: Fresh items for FREE!

I've said it before:  Couponing is a neccesity for our family to stay on budget right now.  But as a mostly vegetarian and clean house, it's sometimes hard to find coupons for groceries.  Coupons for fresh items like fruits, vegetables and bread are hard to come by.  Until this month!

This month, Target's mobile coupons included: 
  • $1 off $1 or more purchase of fresh fruit
  • $1 off $1 or more purchase of fresh vegetables
  • $1 off any purchase of bread   
The past three weeks I've taken advantage of these rare deals to score almost free essentials!  The downside is that the mobile coupons are only good once, so I had to get creative.  There were two promo codes - JULY4 and FRESH.  I used one each and then had my husband use one this week.  Text the codes to 827438 to get yours!

Week 1:
  • Corn $0.25 per ear x 4 = $1.00 - $1/$1 coupon (FREE)
  • Strawberries $1.79 - $1/$1 coupon ($0.79)
  • TOTAL: $0.79
Week 2:
  • Corn $0.25 per ear x 4 = $1.00 - $1/$1 coupon (FREE)
  • Bananas $0.59/pound x 2 pounds = $1.18 - $1/$1 coupon ($0.18)
  • Market Pantry bread $1.25 - $1 coupon ($0.25)
  • TOTAL: $0.43
Week 3:
  • Grapes $2/pound - $1/$1 coupon ($1.00)
  • Broccoli $1.69/pound - $1/$1 coupon ($0.69)
  • Bread on sale for $1.22 - $1 coupon ($0.22)
  • TOTAL: $1.91
Happy (and healthy) couponing!
