Tasty Tuesday: One, Two, Three Coffee Bars

In a hurry and looking for something tasty to make for your sweet tooth? Here's just the recipe you need. Simple enough that even your child could make them, and yet delicious enough the whole family will enjoy them, One, Two, Three Coffee Bars are pretty much always a winner. And even if you don't like coffee, I am pretty sure you'll like these bars- the coffee only gives them a warm, sort of nutty flavor.

One, Two, Three Coffee Bars

2 2/3 c. brown sugar
1 c. vegetable oil
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla
1 c. warm coffee
2 eggs, beaten
3 c. flour
chocolate chips

Mix everything together, except chocolate chips. Pour into a greased jelly roll pan. Sprinkle with chocolate chips. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until toothpick pricked in center comes out clean. Once bars are cooled, sprinkle with powdered sugar.

** If you prefer, bake in a 9x13 pan for 25-30 minutes.

Weekly Spending Summary

I went to a couple of stores twice this week, partly because on Saturday it was just too nice and sunny here not to go on a walk. So I took my walk and stopped at Giant and Rite Aid while I was out. I love living that close to those two stores!

Here's what I bought this week, along with some fresh veggies that I got at the local market (paid cash with money I had taken out of our grocery budget earlier).

Total Spent: $22.29
Total Saved with Coupons: $49.10
Total Saved with Sales: $38.50
Total Saved: $57.52

Giant: $20.07
Saved with Coupons: $21.60
Saved with Sales: $15.19

Freebies: Kashi (1 box), Oreos, Dole, Carolina Rice

I paid full price for the Adam & Eve apple juice and nearly full price for the Teddy Grahams. Do I hear you gasping? It's called poor planning. I forgot that I needed to take a snack for the children in our Mom's group and didn't feel like hunting down coupons for kid friendly items.

I bought the three Olay products to submit for a $15 rebate that is available right now. I spent $9.57 so I will actually make $5.43.

CVS: $0 (giftcard)
Saved with Coupons: $6.00
Saved with Sales: $8.98

Freebie: Colgate

I used a $4 Extra Bucks coupon to pay for my first purchase and a CVS gift card (earned through our Discover credit card) to pay for the second one. If I had not used the gift card, I would have paid $3.37. I got $2 Extra Bucks back from my purchase.

Rite Aid: -$3.04
Saved with Coupons: $21.50
Saved with Sales: $14.33


I was kind of frustrated with Rite Aid this week. They were out of several of the things that I had planned on getting, so I had to revamp my purchase a bit.

And yes, my total spent was negative. I originally purchased the Lamisil AF that was on sale, free after SCR and coupons. I wasn't sure I was buying the right thing, but the manager confirmed that it was the Lamisil that qualified for the SCR. Well, it didn't go through the SCR program, so I returned it. I guess because I used coupons, I actually was refunded more than I spent resulting in a $3.04 credit. I also should get $1 back via the SCR program.

Aldi: $5.26


I'll post my Monthly Spending Summary soon, so stay tuned. I'm anxious to see how it all turned out for the month!
