Well I do not like grocery shopping but ever since learning to coupon it’s become a challenge thing…
Kind of "Can I beat the system" or "How much can I save?"
What i do love is coming home with a receipt this long…..like a mile long…..
And folding it in half…..
Exactly in half……
The top half has everything that I purchased ON SALE
And the bottom half has nothing but coupons on it…..(reducing my original purchase price!!)
Then the total being 60.00 less than when I began scanning coupons….
Christmas even jumped up on the table to see what I was doing
Promise I’ll clean the table before you come home honey!!
The best deals of all?
- Yogurt marked down to 1.00, .50 and .30 because it expires today. Did you know you can freeze yogurt?
- Organic Coleman Chicken marked down to 7.00. I bought 5 packs.
- Organic Harvest Farm Steaks marked down 1/2 price. I bought 3 packs for my 9 year olds upcoming birthday. He loves steak.
- All of my yogurt that I bought I had dollar off coupons for so I made money on the yogurt.
- And completely filled up the refrigerator downstairs with Welch’s Grape Juice because it was on sale and I had 1.00 off coupons for each bottle making it 2.50 a bottle.
So I’m set in the meat department for a while.
Did you girls know you can visit your grocery stores in the AM and meat with an expiration date of that day or the next is usually marked down 1/2 price?
It’s a great way to eat organic…..on a budget!!!!!
Happy Grocery Shopping…
I bought individual servings of Nancy's organic yogurt (the kind that has a little section of organic fruit puree that can be mixed into the yogurt) for 59 cent each for snack on Tuesday! We stopped into the grocery store for eggs and I saw those little treasures (usally $1.20 EACH, but they were set to expire in a couple days) and snagged all of them, which was enough for each of us to enjoy one!!!! Yay!
Your cat sure it cute!
Good for you on the grocery shopping. I so am not a coupon shopping. I'm not that great on inventory management of food either. I would like to get better about buying bulk or the raw ingredients and not buying things pre-cut up or packaged or whatnot.
