Spokane's Groupon Deal of The Day

Wow, today's Groupon deal of the day for Spokane is for, ummmmm, CHOCOLATE!!! YUM!!! Okay, here is the deal.....$12 for an 18-Count Box of Luscious Chocolates from The French Quarter ($25 Value)

Wow! It looks like the deal is on. They already have 151 bought! Here is the info that is on their website....

At first, the Aztecs punished their enemies by pouring hot chocolate down their throats, until the proud warriors found out their foes actually liked it and promptly switched to molten gold. Relive the pleasure of those lucky few conquistadors with today's deal: for $12, you get one 18-count box of chocolates from The French Quarter (a $25 value, includes tax), located downtown in Carnegie Square.

When topological surveys uncovered a richly flowing chocolate vein under Spokane, a sure-footed band of chocolatiers set to work building a premium confectionarium on site. That passionate team of gastronomes and sweet tooths synthesize the succulent sustenance at The French Quarter, their products lovingly infused with locally sourced and handcrafted ingredients wherever possible. Rich Guittard chocolate populates each of the hand-rolled and hand-mixed truffles, which are made in small batches and trained in aikido fortnightly. Each chocolate comes energized by its natural beginnings from genuine plants, herbs, and fruits, while also being happily sheltered from the meddling influence of artificial flavors. Choose from a variety of confections for your 18-piece package, with flavors including burnt-caramel truffle, the citrus smooch of cloved orange, and the coffee kick of Vietnamese moka bean espresso. Purchasers can keep the 18-count container of The French Quarter's chocolate concoctions all to themselves, or gift them to the chocoholic in their life, further feeding a tragic dependency on candy bars and cereal box vampires.
The French Quarter is closed Sunday and Monday.

Thanks!

My Shopping Trip Today

Well, I got a few of my coupons together as well as my kiddos and we went on our way this morning. I went to two different Safeways and this is what I came home with.....

Without coupons, this would have cost me a whopping $197.20. With all of my coupons and savings, it only cost $56.86. I saved $140.34! Plus I got back another $5.50 in Catalinas to spend on my next purchase. All of the meat was 50%. That is a lot of meat that I bought. Most of my total is from the meat. Just my meat alone was $48.28. So, the total cost for all the others was $5.42. WOW! So, with my Catalina I would have made a profit of $0.08. Awesome!

Okay, so here is where I got all of my coupons from......

Box Tops Insert from last Sunday.

Target manufacturer (Nut Clusters, BC fruit snacks)

Smart Source (lots of coupons for this promo) 

Coupons.com

Betty Crocker

Cellfire (loaded to my card)

Shortcuts.com (loaded to my card)

Okay, so I noticed that, once again, my e-coupon did not come off for my Almond Breeze Milk. So, you might want to watch that kind of stuff. I am hearing rumors that people are having a hard time with all of their e-coupons coming off. I didn't have much of a problem, just the one. I tried it once before and it didn't come off then either. So, maybe it is just a glitch with that coupon or something.

So, have any of you tried the Sweet Moments products? Well, let me tell you, I just couldn't resist. Ummm, I think I made a mistake. Now, let me just say "I ONLY TOOK ONE BITE," but I am kinda wishing that I took more, but I have been really really good on plan lately and I want to keep up the good work, although this is making it quite hard. Don't know why I do this to myself. Anyway, my point is, is you haven't tried them, you just GOTTA! THEY ARE SOOOOOOO GOOD!!! :) You will LOVE them!

Okay, I have to get back to work now. I just wanted to share with you my goodies that I came away with.

Thanks!

P.S.~I could not find those new Nature Valley Granola Thins at either the Safeway on Argonne or the Safeway on Sprague. Have you seen them?

I have been working a lot

already this morning (oh, since 2:45) and right now I hear my kiddos upstairs, sounds like "getting something for breakfast." Well, that really scares me as it is just my 6-year-old and my 4-year-old. Anyway, I have got to put together some deals that I am going to try to score this morning and get them breakfast. So, I am going to be out for the morning. Just thought I would let you all know. I CAN'T WAIT TO GO SHOPPING THIS MORNING!!! :)

Thanks!

Target coupons

I was just clipping some of my Target coupons this morning, while I was waiting for my computer to boot up. Anyway, have any of you noticed that the manufacturer's coupons, that you print from Target's website, do NOT have the Target logo on them anymore? Well guess what? They don't have that logo. Yay! I was so excited to see this. I know it is a manufacturer coupon and most store should take it, even with the logo, but I have chosen not to fight that fight. So, I am really excited about this, 'cause now I can take my Target "manufacturer" coupons ANYWHERE, REALLY! :)

Goooood mornin'!
