Couponing

I never knew that couponing would be so fun!!  I was so excited to be saving a large chunk of money!  Today was my first MAJOR coupon outing…I came home with 9 boxes of General Mills cereals (Honey Nut Cheerios, Lucky Charms, and Reese’s Puffs), 3 Dawn dish soaps, 2 Head & Shoulders shampoos and 2 H&S conditioners, 2 boxes Playtex tampons, 6 can Hunt’s tomato sauce, and a stock of Brach’s Mellowcreme pumpkins (frozen for next year!!).  We only spent $44 and SAVED $92!  This was a huge deal for me, especially since we are on such a tight budget!  I just wished that I lived closer to a Walgreen’s so that I could do this more often! 
I’m now thinking that I need to attend a coupon class so that I can get better and figure out how to watch for the best specials and how to save even more money!!!
