Fun-da-middles Cupcake deal at HEB

I thought these cupcakes looked like a lot of fun and since my son's birthday was this week I thought this would be a great time to give them a try.  I stopped by HEB to pick some up and found that they had an in-store coupon for a free Betty Crocker Supreme Brownie mix with purchase of 2 Fun-da-middle mixes. To make the deal even better there were $.75 off coupons in the General Mills inserts on both 9/11 and 10/2.

HEB Scenario

Purchased 4 fun-da-middles at $2.88 each = 11.52

Received 2 premium brownie mixes for free

Used 4 $.75 off coupons = -$3.00

Total 8.52 for 6 mixes  - not a bad deal for specialty mixes

Teva Flip Flops $2.98 plus shipping

To say that I like Teva Flip Flops would be a bit of an understatement!  They are so comfortable and last forever.  I usually try to find them on sale but rarely find a great deal so I was thrilled to hear about this deal - Thanks to My Litter
