Finished!

I just finished inputting all the data I collected last night at CostCo. Call me a geek but I'm really proud of this. It's really reassuring to be able to look at the numbers and know exactly how much I've been paying. In the end, I'm not sure that CostCo has the best prices. For example, the price for Heinz ketchup in the really big jar is $0.04 per ounce. Right now, Target has a 40oz bottle on sale for $1. This calculates to $0.02 per ounce. That's a 50% savings right there. Even though I don't have a coupon, I'd be getting a better price buying at Target. I may have to make a trip over there before they run out.

I also discovered that I recently made a good decision to buy some FiberOne bars on sale at Target for $2 per box and use a $0.50 off coupon. This turned out to be $0.25 per bar and at CostCo they are $0.32 per bar.

I now know that we pay $0.50 per box of Kraft Macaroni and Cheese. Rite Aid is selling boxes at Buy 1 Get 1 Free. Plus, I have a coupon. So as long as this calculates out to <$0.50 per box, I'll try to use all my coupons to get a better deal than CostCo!
