I saved over $336 which is a savings of 86%. I know people say that I am crazy (heck, I even say it) for buying so many boxes of cereal, etc. However, a lot of this food is going to food bank. Like the beans and the tomatoes, and the extra cereal. This promo really gave me a rush!
The first time I did the promo at my store, Jim, Cade, and I had walked over. Then, we shopped...and I bought 40 items. Jim and I had to take turns carrying Cade home on our shoulders since the stroller was packed full of groceries!
I am sure I bore most of you with my grocery shopping escapades, but I am a serious coupon addict.

I really want someone to to teach me how to do this... and then to do it with me because that kind of shopping is more of an adventure than an errand.
I'd need a side-kick. Please come be my side-kick. Or I'll be your side-kick. Heck, I'll even wear the funny tights!
I can't wait until I am in a big city where there is probably a Coupon Sense instructor. I had so much fun with you the one time I went with you!
hey, do me a favor?
