2 Don Julio tortillas - $2.70
6 loaves of bread - $10.14
Net OOP: $13.61
You probably notice there are 7 loaves in the picture. As I was getting ready to leave, the cashier asked me if I would like a FREE loaf of bread. Of course, I said yes! I'm still not sure why he offered, but heck I'll take it! Also, the loaf on the bottom right is missing the heel - I let my kids split it on the walk home :).
My next stop was Fred Meyer. I did this in 2 transactions because I wanted to finish up my MasterCard gift card I used part of here.
In the first transaction I got:
2 dozen eggs - $1.59 (these were B1G1Free)
1 med cheddar cheese - $3.99
1 pkg. turkey Italian sausage - $1.99
Net amount: $8.03
Used gift card OOP Zero!!!
Here is my second transaction:
2 gallons milk - $3.981 pkg. mushrooms (clearanced) - $.89
1 pkg. rosemary - $1.99
1 lemon - $.59
1 cottage cheese - $1.25
2 vegetable oil - $4.70
Net OOP: $14.21
One last stop - Walgreen's. I got:
2 Reynold's wrap aluminum foil - $1.78 (w/in ad coupon) (- 2 $1.00 off Reynold's wrap) = $.22 overage
1 packet M&M's (not pictured) - $.89
Net OOP: $.83
I am now $.22 under budget. Not a bad haul considering I had less than $30.00 to spend! Woo hoo!

I have a Hostess outlet near me and I always wondered if it was worth it to go in. Now I see from what you got, its worth it to give it a shot. Thanks!
At the Sara Lee outlet that I go to, if you spend more then 10.00 you can pick a free item from a cart, maybe Hostess does the same thing. I love bread outlets, when I was little I remember going with my mom and they use to have punch cards that was awesome, but they dont do that anymore.
