I am a JUNKIE!

Coupons! Coupons!! Coupons!!!! I can't stop myself from clipping coupons and finding great deals. I wasn't going to post this... but I can't help myself. One of my girlfriends and I agreed to wake up at 5am in order to get to Smith's double coupon days. It was quite a morning and these were the results... (note: when I get home from a great day of deals, this is how I model my goodies and make my poor husband guess how much I spent. He guessed $50 bucks.)


2 Boxes Fruitsnacks 3 packs Energizer Batteries

6 Bars Irish Spring 2 Candybars

4 Boxes Eggos 20 Bic Pens

2 Crest Toothpaste 2 Bottles ALL detergent

1 Reach Toothbrush 4 Cans Pringles

1 jar pickles 1 Box Bandaids

4 Boxes Cereal 1 Gallon Milk

1 Pack Oscar Meyer Hotdogs.......

GRAND TOTAL??????

$22.00!!!!!!!

Holy cow!! I was so proud... I even shed a few tears.

oh seriously Robyn....I am so impressed....my sister is a coupon dedicated goo roo too, and I'm going to tell you the same thing I told her. I'm very happy for you and love hearing about it but please please do not let my husband hear about all these great savings....it'll totally shatter the "wonderful wife" stigma I've got going with him. LOL seriously though I', going to take a day and have my sis teach me all the nitty gritty about these coupons,websites,sales,and getting all the loot for nothing!! I've just been too lazy to get into it and Aaric doesn't need to know that right now. Just kidding, but I am way impressed.

I loved the update on the Family..you guys are great and I wish we were closer!! But heads up I MIGHT be coming to St. George around the 20th! I'll hae to see but keep me in mind. Love ya so much!
