Deals, deals, deals!!!

Okay, I was so excited about this that I just had to post it! In my last post I told you that I have been getting into the world of coupons. Well, today I went to the grocery where I purchased $60 worth of groceries. After sales/promotions and coupons - get this - THEY PAID ME $1.70 AND I got a $10 certificate to use towards my next shopping trip!!!! Wow - why was I not doing this before?!?! Bargain shopping is so fun!

Amazing! You caught on fast. I've been tinkering with the whole coupon thing for awhile now and sometimes its just too much with a little one year old. You have inspired me to keep it up though.
Do you ever read moneysavingmom.com? Great resource.

Wow~ that is good! How did you do it? I'd like to know the details..you must've had massive coupons, huh? Did it take alot of planning? I've saved maybe 10.00 most, at the grocery, but do pretty well at the CVS store and don't go to Walmart or Target much at all anymore.

ok I never thought I would see the day that you were a coupon clipper! And am I the only one who isn't doing this? I think I need to go visit Naphtali and get the whole scoop on all of this fabulous money saving! :) But hey Congrats you sound like an expert aready!

Good Job! I told Eric about it and he just gave me the look. You know the one? The one that says, "Bad wife. Be more like her." hehehe... :-)
