My Walmart Deal

I scored some great stuff at Walmart Today
although I made a mistake which ended up costing me.

I bought 18 Reach Floss, 7 Playtex Personal Cleansing Cloths and 10 Starburst Jellybeans

The Floss was on sale for $0.88 ea
the Playtex was $1.97 ea
the jellybeans were $.89 ea (Easter clearance price)

I used:
 (4) $1/1 floss coupons
(7) $2.50/2 floss coupons
(7) $1/1 Playtex coupons
(5) $1/2 Starburst coupons

My total OOP was $8.99
My savings were $39.40

Here's how I messed up:

the 55 yard floss was on sale for $0.88 ea making my $1/1 coupons $0.12 in overage and my $2.50/2 coupons $0.74 in overage to go toward my other items.

I wasn't paying close enough attention and grabbed two 100 yard floss instead which cost $1.76 ea.

My total should have been $7.23

I know it isn't a huge difference but every little mistake adds up!
