Couponing

Walgreens:6 Right Guard deodorants, Ajax dish soap & Clearsil face soap $3.83 + 2.00 off coupon off my next purchase!!!












Target: two pasta ronis, two satin care shave cream (small size), one package pads, 3 starkist chunk light tuna, Crest Kids, Oral B Trainer toothpaste (not pictured), Zantac(not pictured) $10.90    I could have saved a little more here, but Jade needed Zantac and the girls have to use different toothpaste still, since Ruby cannot have flouride yet. boo.:(  Oh, well. I was still stoked!


So, I am pretty excited to share these pictures! I have been clipping coupons for a month or so now and it has saved us some serious loot. Tonight was the first night that I really went all out coupon shopping and I was pretty pleased with how I did. I hope to save a little more on our grocery bill, but it will come with time. Is it crazy that I am so excited to get my hands on the paper in the morning to see what is on sale? 

As far as our grocery bill....I spent $64.50 and saved $36.14.

A friend of min estarted a Facebook group about couponing in our area and it has really helped get me motivated + I have a really good friend who should have her own show on how to save money thru couponing. She is amazing! There are a few websites that I have on my google reader that update quite a bit during the week. I still have a lot to learn, but so far, it has been so much fun. :)

You are doing great Les! And you definitely have he right attitude towards this. So many people think they can jump right in the next day, but i definitely takes time collecting and saving those coupons for when they are needed. You are on the right track and Im excited to share this with you! :)
