Saturday's 20% off Big Lots Trip

I received a 20% off your total purchase coupon in my email, so last Saturday, I decided to go look through the food section to see what was new and grab some rope that Joe needed.  Here's what I ended up with...

1 pkg Rope $5 - $1 from coupon = $4

2 pkg Raspberry Muffin Mix $0.50 ea - $0.10 ea from coupon = 2/$0.80

2 pkg Hot Artichoke and Garlic Dip Mix $0.50 ea - $0.10 ea from coupon = 2/$0.80

1 bag Kettle Potato Chips $1.80 - $0.36 from coupon = $1.44

+ $0.24 Tax

 Total OOP: $7.28
