Back in the Game- Toilet Paper Deal

After what feels like an eternity, I'm finally getting back into the coupon game. It's good to be back.

Giant is currently having a sale (through Thursday) on Angel Soft Toilet Paper 2 for $11. Combine this with 2 $0.50/1 Angel Soft Bath Tissue, 6 Double Roll +, Any - 05-23-10 RP (which double) and you only pay $4.50 per pack.

Let's see how this breaks down:

The Angel Soft sale is on 12 double roll packs or 24 single roll packs, so either way, you are getting 24 rolls of toilet paper. My stockpile price for toilet paper is no more than $0.25 per (single) roll of toilet paper. Did I beat my stockpile price?

$4.50/24= $0.19/roll!

Total before coupons/sales: $31.46
Total after coupons/sales: $19.00 for at least a month's worth of toilet paper if not more.

More updates

I've updated my totals again, and also included $21.50 in rebates I received so far this month. That brings my rebate earnings up to $266.50, and I'm hopeful I can make it $300 by the end of the year. I need to be more diligent in this area so next year I can make even more!

I have $1,108.62 (plus my rebate money) to last me until the end of the year. As I'm not planning on doing any more spending until August, that leaves about $221.72 per month for the rest of the year. Very manageable, as I usually spend around $200, unless there is a really good sale to stock up on.

Wow!

Wow, it's been a month and a half since I updated! Why? Well, I really haven't done that much couponing or shopping since the beginning of June. We've had some expected changes and so I won't be really getting back into the coupon/rebating game until a bit later, but I should be able to still stick with my budget so I'm happy with that. I'm updating my totals now!
