Kroger Shopping Trip 5/5/2015

Made a quick stop into Kroger on the way home.  I needed to purchase $5.01 minimum of produce by today in order to receive credit for one of my mail in rebates.  I had hoped to pick up some strawberries but they were all out.  Thankfully Harris Teeter will have them on sale again next week for $1.50/lb so I will pick some up then.  So I just picked up a bit more green beans and apples than I was initially planning on purchasing to reach my $5.01 minimum.  I actually went over quite a bit but that is fine because it will all be used up.

I did a separate transaction to purchase some diapers.  I wanted to do two transaction with diapers but the store was down to only 6 packages so I just purchased 4 packs and I might drive out to another store tomorrow to pick up another 4 if I can find them.  I used a $10.00 catalina I got at Target over the weekend for purchasing the wipes and two $2.00 catalinas from when I purchased Ziploc during the mega sale to help reduce my out of pocket cost.  Even though the 38ct is not listed as part of the catalina offer it did produce the catalina!
