I can't remember where I put this receipt but I don't forget a good deal...

Children's Motrin $1.50

Nivea Lip Gloss .49

Rold Gold $1.25

Yogurt Packs .88 ea

Lipstick $2 reg. $9 ( gave as b-day gift)

P&G SALE!

So this sale was if you bought $40 worth of P&G products you recived $10 instantly... so I took 25% off ea item (assuming I would buy $40 worth) and then added my coupon.... The result was:

5 boxes wheatable crackers

2 Pampers diapers

2 crest toothpastes

2 Pop Secret Popcorn

1 Herbal Essence shampoo

1 Herbal Essence conditioner

1 Herbal Essence Moose

1 Herbal Essence Hairspray

2 Pringles

2 -8pk Bounty Paper Towels

2 -12 double roll pk Charmin Toilet Paper

THE TOTAL CAME TO $25.00...... I SAVED $75.00

I paid 1/4 of the origional price!!!

This kind of couponing takes some time but it is so worth it!

I love a good deal!

So this was a fun one...

I origionally was going to get the Joy dish soap (12.6 oz) that was on sale for .99 w/ a .30 coupon that would make them .69 ea. but I saw the Ajax for .79 ea and it was 16 oz. So it turned out to be a better deal not to use the coupon! :)

The eggs were again .99 ea for Large Grade A

the Ritz crackers were .99 each... I had a coupon for $1/1 -I got a penny for buying ea. box!

So total: Saved: $15.76 and only PAID: $5.50!! WAHOO!!!

It's a Rush!

For those of you that are avid couponers know exactly what it's like when you reach the check out line and watch the person in front of you spend 100's of dollars on their few items and then you with your full cart of groceries watch as the total goes from 100's to nothing! It is a RUSH! There is nothing like it! Whenever we tell people that we spend 100 dollars a month on food, toiletries, diapers/wipes, makeup, cleaning supplies, shampoo/conditioner, soaps... etc they can't believe it! (Especially because we don't live off of Hamburger Helper and Macaroni & Cheese!)

Yea for great deals, saving money and getting a rush!

Horray for great deals!

Savings in Georgia

My friends in Georgia are trying to implement the Grocery Smarts Concept, since it's not established there yet, and they have had great success!!! I think many of you will be able to identify with their experience!

"We got all this for $23! It was a 66% savings! I am so proud of my dear wife. What was more funny is that when I got home she said, "It was a total adreneline rush!""

Thanks Britt & Tommy! Keep up the good work!
