2 boxes Nature Valley Biscuits – $5.49 (I meant to buy the Belvita Biscuits, which have an Ibotta rebate. I was in a rush and accidentally picked up the wrong boxes. My children like these, and they were on a B1G1 promotion – so while they aren’t my target price, we’ll use them).

Total after Rebates and Coupons: $10.96 (I’m only including $7.96 of this in my grocery total for the week, because the deodorants come out of a different budget category. I thought they were a good deal for this brand, though, so I’m including them in my grocery run picture).
