Guess How Much I Spent at Whole Foods?!

Posted on March 21, 2011 by Mara Strom

Last’s week edition of Guess How Much I Spent at CVS was so much fun (for me at least ;-)) that I thought I’d do it again with Whole Foods.

Since I was out running errands on Friday afternoon anyway, I decided to pop into Whole Foods. My husband had the kids with him, so this entire trip took less than 15 minutes. Aaaah, bliss! It also gave me a chance to update my Whole Foods deal matchups for this week, so be sure to check that out for a few more deals and steals.

The shelf value of the 12 items that I purchased is $33, before taxes. How much do you think I ended up paying out of pocket? The person who comes closest will win a coupon for a free Earth’s Balance, makers of those yummy buttery sticks featured above.

For those of you that still think Whole Foods = “Whole Paycheck”, check out my How to Save at Whole Foods tutorial.

      I just realized you probably used at least one reusable bag so lets say
      $3.78 for two reusable bags 😉

    $1.56 + tax (7.725% – found at Sales Tax Lookup) = $1.68

    This all depends on if WF give you overages for store coupons. I love a good contest!

    My guess is $4. How did you get Earth Balance coupons? I’ve been searching for those for weeks!
