Easy transaction, a cereal deal, 1 gallon skim Dean Milk, 2 packs string cheese, and three cans dole crushed pineapple that was $.60!!

I used coupons:
$1/2 cereals - three of them (doubled), $1 off Deans milk (doubled), 41/3 Dole canned fruit (doubled),a Milk voucher...bottom line, $27.28 for $2.20 and they gave me $5 back in milk and egg vouchers. This became a money maker deal with a $2.80 profit!

I had another transaction with a cereal deal, 12 canes of Dole fruit, 2L Cherry Dr Pepper and 2 packs lasagna noodles...
Coupons used:
$2/3 cereals (two of them), FOUR $1/3 Dole coupons (doubled), $.55 off DR PEPPER (doubled) ... bottom line, $33.39 for $6.80 and they gave me $5 back in milk and egg vouchers again!

Cookie Exchange Parties are SO MUCH FUN - for a few simple reasons:You get together with your friends You make only ONE kind of cookie and finish your holiday baking, after swapping out You get new recipes You often have snacks or games!
