I got a re-grand opening flyer in the mail that had several coupons for items (the cheese was $2.98 for 2 lbs I had $1/1 coupon which they didn’t let me use, the chips were .48 cents, the beef .98 cents, free French bread, juice .98 cents, etc.) and some good deals like oranges for .18 cents lb (limit 10 lbs). They had limits on most of the advertised items. I was in need of oranges, cheese, and chips so I thought it would be worth taking a look at. It was hard not using a ton of coupons during my shopping trip at Winco but they were needed items (except I did splurge on the Shrimp for my hubby). I did not have a good experience & their customer service was horrible; unless they have some cheap deals I won’t be returning anytime soon.)
I needed some raisins to make cookies and use all the free oats I got a while ago. The chips were free after +UPR back so I did those first used the $6.00 +UPR from the chips on the raisins.

I was excited about the make-up because the normal mineral make-up I buy cost around $20.00 so I saved almost $17.00 just by shopping the clearance items!
