Some of you may remember that we used to make frequent trips to a wholesaler guy who we fondly refer to as snack Guy.
He sells food and other household goods at wholesale prices.
We went to see him at the end of last week and spent $20.
For that we got eight boxes of Reese's peanut butter cupcakes. There are six cupcakes in each box, we got nine bags of chocolate Starbucks ground coffee Verona, 9 large bags of pumpkin spice Betty crocker cookie mix and two 1.5 pounds Pork Loins.
So I'm going to see what it would of cost if I walked into Walmart and bought the same things. And see how much we saved.
Reese's Peanut Butter Flavored Cupcakes 6ct - $3.48 x 8 = $27.84
Starbucks Verona half pound- $6.50 x 9 = $58.50
Betty Crocker Pumpkin Spice Cookie Mix Large Bag - $3.69 x 9 = $33.21
Hormel Pork Loins approx 1.5 pounds - $9.69 x 2 = $19.38
Grand total is bought at Walmart would of been: $138.93.
That's a savings of $118.93.
Not such a bad deal to get $138.93 worth of groceries for $20.00. Those pork loins just by themselves at Wally World would of been almost $20.00.
I need to add him back into the rotation of shopping. Always a good deal with him.
So that's the awesome deal I got recently. What about you? @porwest , you scored any good deals?

He's supposed to have 10 pound bags of chicken wings this week or next. We're gonna stock up on those.
