- Although they did beep and I was told by the cashier that I was not allowed to get FREE stuff from Dollar General, because they are loosing money by me using coupons. I still got them after several minutes of calmly explaining that they are not loosing money. But that they actually make money from me using these coupons!!

Great job saving! I went to CVS for the finish detergent as well, I may have to give some away though, since we more often than not wash our dishes by hand except when we let them fall into a huge pile. Please come link up at the Bluegrass Savers Weekly Shopping Page.
Great trips! Rolling those ECB can really help when you are trying to stock up!
Our dollar general did not have the cream of wheat. I normally never shop there, is this common that some stores will have and some wont?
I have 2 DG that I sometimes visit and I have only seen a few times that they did not carry the same things. But the $1 Cream Of Wheat was not with the breakfast foods at my store. They have one aisle that is just $1 items and it was there. Next time you are there see if they have a separate $1 aisle!!
You did fabulous! What a fantastic total!!
I would like to invite you to link up your savings at the Weekly Savings Linky @ Frugality Is Free , you can win a free ad space too!
Very nice! I've never tried Dollar General, though there's a store in the same shopping plaza as a local, non-chain grocery store I visit every couple of weeks which has really good prices on produce. I will have to stop by and check out their selection.
Thanks for linking up! Have a great week!
