Coupons!

Ok, so many people will make fun of my coupons, or really ask me if it is worth the time that I spend in couponing. I want to show my purchases that I made today to hopefully convince some people that you definately save money with coupons.

Ok my purchase that I am most proud of today is Ridleys! Here is a picture of what I purchased. I would like you to guess what the total came to! In the picture their is 10 boxes of rice krispies, 5 bags of marshmellows, and 4 sicssors.

Ok the amount I paid was $1.65!! I was actually suppose to pay .65 cents, but the cashier forgot to do one of my coupons, but I figured it was not worth going back in they could have my dollar. My savings in coupons, and promotions was $54.61!

Ok my next stop today was Walgreens. Walgreens is one of my favorite stores to get hygine type items because they allow you to stack coupons on the same item. Today I did not get to many items, but I did get one 33 loads of purex laundry detergent, I bottle of Keri lotion, 3 packages of index cards, 1 package of printer paper, 2 baby bibs, baby binkes (No I am not pregnate but when I see a deal I have to get it, 2 carmex lip balms, and 5 tab dividers. Ok here is a picture and I want to see if you can guess what I spent here?

Ok I spent $5.03. Now some people might think that is not that great but when I saved $31.00 dollars in coupons and store promotions that is definately a deal.

Ok my next stop today was Walmart. Today at Walmart I bought 2 packages of Spitz sunflower seeds, 2 bottes of shaving cream, 2 Quattro razors, 2 travel sizes of secret deoderodernt, 1 travel size of tide detergent, 1 package of sticky notes, and 1 bottle of LA looks gel. Ok once again guess the total!

Ok I spent $3.61. I also saved eight dollars in coupons.

Ok my last stop today was target! I bought 2 five star notebooks, 3 packages of trident gum, 3 packages of bic razors, 2 packages of sharpie pens, and 2 packages of paper mate pens.

The total spent at target was $4.44 with saving $16.52.

*** The grand total of what I spent today was $14.92! My savings today is $110.21!!!!!!!

Ok now you might think I am crazy for posting this. You might also think I also bought a lot of random items that I do not need on a weekly basis. Yes, I did buy a lot of random items, but I have been doing this for about a year now, and I have noticed that things go through cycles of when they are on sell. I have noticed that if I have a stock pile of am item that when I need that item and it is no longer on sell I have a stockpile which makes it so I do not have to go out and spend full price for things. You probably also noticed that I do not have many items and that is because I like to do mostly food on Tuesdays, and Wednesdays because that is when I get my best deals on produce. I am posting this so everyone can see that coupons do work, and if you ever would like help with couponing I would love to help you!
