Giant Hershey Park Deal


I have to admit this deal had me stressed.  First off there were new coupons in today's paper.  Than I got to the store and some things weren't tagged with the Hershey Park sticker(yet they are pictured in the ad).  Other things are tagged yet not mentioned in the ad, and a bunch of items are already out of stock.  So I was standing in the dairy section making sure I got to $75.  Luckily I hit my mark and didn't need to bother customer service.
So I got everything pictured and 2 Hershey Park tickets for $50.12.

Week wrap up


What I bought Friday, cost me $8.79, the only cheap chicken I could find was chicken wings which I didn't buy.
So I've spent $43.57 for the week.  I'm going to carry the $16.43 in to next week since I'm going to need it.   I also got a raincheck for Zyrtec.

Looking A Head Giant --- Free Hershey Park Ticket

Looks like I'll be busting my budget next week, I'll be happy if I can get 2 tickets for around $50.  So for around $80 we can take our little family to Hershey Park and we'll end up with $75 worth of Kraft/Pepsi products.  If you want additional tickets Giant sells discount tickets $42.95 for an Adult ticket, and $30.95 for a Junior/Senior(3-8, 55+) ticket.

Giant/Martins/Stop & Shop Hallmark Deal (two week long deal)

I mentioned that I was buying Hallmark Cards this week and it's a crazy good deal so I want you to be able to get in on it as well.
You get $5 off instantly when you buy 3 cards($.99 cards are excluded but the $1.49 cards are included).  The deal is buy 3 $1.49 cards --- $4.47(Giant PA gives a 10% discount on cards so it's $4.02) they will be free if you only buy cards, or they will take $5 off if you buy something else.  This is a good deal since you can use your savings on anything you want even milk which doesn't normally get discounted, but you will pay tax on your cards($.24 for me).  If you want more expensive cards you can get 1 nicer card and 2 $1.49 cards, the $1.99 cards would be free this way(you'll have a zero balance which my cashier didn't know what to do with).
There are two types of $1.49 cards at Giant PA(not sure what the sister stores have). 

Graduation Money Card Holders 

Saturday's Funny Mom Cards(these are only found in the newer bigger Giants that have two half rows of cards).

How am I doing so far!

Okay so I finished most of my shopping(I'll go back for more milk, and the two items I forgot plus I'll see if I can find any cheap chicken since my store will mark down meat when it's close to it sell by date that I can freeze for 6 months).

So this is what I've spent so far.
CVS --- $2.11 (1 Razor, 1 Aspirin)
Walgreens --- $2.46 (2 Aspirins, 2 Blistex, 3 candy bars(this is because Walgreen's registers require 1 item for each coupon used, since I paid with Register Rewards and Man. Coupons)
Giant --- $10.77 (1.7 lbs Bananas, 2 lbs Baby Carrots, 1.27 lbs Red Peppers, Turkey Kielbasa, 2 pints of blueberries, and 18 Hallmark Cards)
Weis --- $19.44 (6 boxes Pasta, 1 lbs Strawberries, 4.3 lbs Chicken Thighs, 3 lbs Ground Turkey, 2 packages Jennie-O Hot Dogs, 1 gallon of Milk, 8 Hamburger Rolls)
Total --- $34.78
Next week I'll take a picture.
