My Final Target Frozen Foods Shopping – Am I Done Yet?

Today I went to Target to spend the $15 in gift cards that I earned on my last Target frozen food shopping trip. Our fridge was filled up to max capacity with frozen veggies, but we were completely out of meat, so I knew there was no way out.

I wanted to make sure that I took advantage of the frozen food gift card deal at least one last time, so I added some extra items to my meat purchase, and they basically paid for themselves. My boys had been asking for lemonade, and I was planning on getting it at Publix. When I discovered the frozen Publix lemonade on sale, I knew that was the perfect solution. Instead of 1 gallon for $2.99, I was able to get two frozen cans at Target at $0.87 each (making 2 gallons). I also made a last-minute change to my grocery list, when I discovered that the Simply Orange juice was cheaper at Target than at Publix. By buying the OJ at Target instead of at Publix, I saved 15 cents. I know, it’s not much, but it was the price for a can of veggies at Publix.

MP: Market Pantry
TC: Target Coupon
MF: Manufacturer coupon

Here is how I did at Target:

I had $15 in gift cards from Monday’s Target trip.

This is what I bought:

2 x Market Pantry frozen chicken 2.5 lb on sale @ $5.84 = $11.68

- $1.50 Target Coupon = $10.18 ($2.04 each)

3 x Birds Eye Steamfresh frozen veggies @ $1.02 each = $3.06

- $1 MF = $2.06 ($0.69 each)

2 x MP frozen lemonade @ $0.87 each = $1.74

Seventh Generation dish detergent $2.69

- ($1 MF and $1 Target Coupon) = $0.69

Simply Orange Juice on sale @ $2.84 – $1 MF = $1.84
