Ralphs 8 Hour Sale

I made it over to Ralph's to take advantage of their 8 Hour Sale going on today, and I am glad I did :)
So now it's time for me to brag. (You all knew that was coming.)

What I got:
2 Snuggle Fabric Softener 3.99 (used 2 $3/1 Snuggle MQ= .99/ea)
8 Oral B toothbrushes 4/$4 (used 4 $2/2 Oral B Indicator MQ= all 8 for free!)
4 Crest toothpastes 4/$4 (used 3 .75/1, and 1 .50/1= 2 doubled to a dollar, then 1.50 off= .50 total!)
2 Dole juices .99/ea
2 Boxes of cereal .99/ea
2 Popsicle big sticks  1.00/ea (I couldn't resist- they are my favorite!)

Total before coupons and in-store savings: $84.77
Total spent after coupons and in-store savings: $10.37! Savings of $74.40!
I originally thought I would save at least 2 more dollars or so, but the cereal on promo are the smaller 8oz. boxes that wouldn't work with the coupons I had- bummer!

*Wanna brag??? Send me your photos and detailed list of prices and match-ups!
