Couponing is Fun

okay,

so miss kelly has not kind of, but full on got me hooked on coupons. She has even given me some to get my momentum going.
I have to say that I am a beginner couponer. There are women in this blog land who have it mastered as evidenced by their receipts and pantry photos.
I went to Save-On tonight to see what I could do. They had that coupon machine, where you swipe your save-on card and coupons come out. I took full advantage of what it had to offer which resulted in amazing deals. I often feed Clarky fruit out of a can, but I rinse the syrup off of it first. The Save-on brand were 2.80, but the coupon was for 99 cents. I got 4. Another good deal was the cascade for dishwashers. they were 5.99 on sale and there was a coupon for 1.50 off. I had a couple of meat coupons from the weekly flyer 10 off chicken, and buy one, get one free meat skewers.
Anyways, my bill was $ 100.40, but with all the coupons I had it came to $65.86.
I saved $34.54! How Exciting.
This couponing business takes time. I didn't have my kid tonight so I had time to ponder in the supermarket and stop in the isle to fiddle with my messy lump of coupons.

until next time....
