Giant Eagle Shopping 11/23 and 11/21

Tuesday, November 24, 2009 Posted In Edit This 0 Comments »
Well I had some snafus, but nothing that can't be fixed, I hope. lol I also have no pictures as I didn't get home until midnight. We left the house around 6:30. I'm still exhausted and can you believe my quads are killing me! I so need more exercise when a shopping trip causes muscle soreness. Maybe I need to shop more! ;-D

Just so you know I actually didn't spend all that time shopping at Giant Eagle. LOL I spent an hour plus on travel, had to drop off and pick up Jeff and kids at his mom's, a Wal-Mart stop where I had to figure out what to do since the Honeysuckle that was to be price adjusted was gone and a visit with my SIL.


Now that I bored you with the details not pertaining to GE I will give you the rundown of my GE transactions:


Quick Version:
Value $380
OOP $74 (after I subtract the $6)
Savings 81%
Shorted Catalinas 7*$3($21) Note to self; Make sure all items are rang individually.
RC Mess Up and shorted $6; I still have to go back for a refund
Still waiting on 8*$2 Cats from a previous sale

Have $5 Catalina left

Long Version:

Transaction #1
60 Swiss Miss
21 Orville Redenbacher Microwave Popcorn
20 Energizers AA 2 pk
8 Hefty Plates
2 Hefty Trays
1 Reddi-Wip
Spent $43 Savings $194 (82%) Received 10*$3 Cats Missing 7*$3 Cats


Transaction #2
4 Dawn
Spent $.52(tax) Savings$12 (100%)Received $5 Cat


Transaction #3
4 Dawn
Spent $.52(tax) Savings$12 (100%)Received $5 Cat


Transaction #4
10 Ortega Taco Seasoning
10 Birds Eye Boxed Vegetables
7 Hellmann's (RC)
4 Tollhouse Cookies
4 Organic Milks (1/2 Gal)
4 Stove Top
3 Dawn
2 GE Butter
2 Sugardale Precooked Bacon
2 Eggland Eggs Extra Large
2 85% Lean Ground Beef
2 Bunches of Bananas (3.19 lbs)
1 Red Leaf Lettuce (1.04lbs)
1 Organic Carrots (1lb)
1 Container Grape Tomatoes
1 10lb Idaho Russet Potatoes
Value: $124 Spent $38 Savings $86 (69%) Received $5 Cat
Shorted $6 So really Spent $32 (73%)

Typing out the list looks so small; wish I had a picture to capture the amount of groceries.
I had to leave the store and go back in since the first cart was overflowing even using the bottom rack. I don't think I've ever had to do that in the past even when I shopped once a month. (!) Never had the savings either and I thought I was a savvy shopper then. LOL

I forgot to add my husband's trip from Saturday. :)

4 Mr Clean
2 Honey Wheat Nature's Pride
1 Celery
1 Sweet Onion
Total Value: $20 Spent: $8 Savings $12 (60%) Received $5 Cat

Mineral Monday ~LaurEss ~Sale

Monday, November 23, 2009 Posted In , Edit This 0 Comments »
LaurEss! This is my very favorite make up especially the foundations. Along with the foundations, I can recommend the blush and shadows too. I have not try any lip products or finishing powders because I always use pure silk or whip my own concoction for finishing powder.

Foundation First:

Minimalist ~ My favorite It provides a nice buildable coverage that hides pores better than others I've used and blemishes too, yet it doesn't feel heavy. The color selection is vast.

Elemental ~ Barely comes in second This coverage is slightly lighter and just the slightest hint of dewiness. This would be perfect for me in the Summer.

Ethereal~Favorite for Others, but surprisingly I don't like this. (?) This is the heaviest coverage.

Blush:
Many beautiful shades to choose! Make sure to click on each category to see all the colors.


Eye Shadow: This eyeshadow just glides across my lids. Gem Lights is my favorite because those are pearlized, but not sparkly or glitterly.

Lauren is a fabulous owner that works beside her husband Chris. Lauren is meticulous when it comes to creating her line and it shows. There is also a group link where you can ask her and others questions or if you'd like personal recommendation you can email them. I don't know when the sale ends because this sale has been extended from the original ending date. You will save 10%-20%, this includes samples and the great thing about LaurEss is the prices are already adjusted so there's no figuring or guesswork for you.

After visiting the site some more since I've never been on it, I want to point out that Ritzbags are replicas of designer bags. It explains more on the site about the materials and workmanship of these bags.
