I love saving money!!

If you know me well enough you know I love to shop!
But even better I love to bargain shop! I love to find
great deals! Well I have been shopping with Coupon Sense
now for about 4 years and I still absolutely love it!
I will admit that I get a "natural high" from shopping
at the grocery store. Most people dread it. I on the other
hand love it! Why? because I save so much money!
Tonight I went to Safeway. Pretty much just for the deals
and as you can see on my receipt below left I only spent
$19.18 but saved $58.77 so I got $78 dollars worth of
groceries for under $20 bucks. That's 76% savings. Plus I
got a $5 off my next shopping order for the next time I go.
Yep, that's why I love it! and I also run over to Bashas
every now and then and this was my last trip down there.
(See bottom left) Paid $25.34 and saved $38.20. Not my
best for them but it was the last time I went and still had
the receipt in my purse. I have really been able to build up
our year supply. Sure the basics you could live off of, but
what about the fun and yummy stuff? Well that is what I
get at the store. Right now the economy is so bad and who
knows what is to come and so I'm glad I have this "hobby"
right now and my husband likes it too!

You are such a smart shopper and what a way to "spend" time with your love of shopping! I think it's a great way to get your food supply.

I miss Coupon Sense! I did it while I lived in Chandler and LOVED it. Once I went to CVS at christmas time and my bill before the coupons was $127...after, $21. It was awesome! They have coupon sense here but it isnt as fun because Utah stores dont do double dollar coupons..or whatever they called that.

You are so smart to do that. I want to try to get started and get more food stored up as well as save some money. My SIL does it and saves tons of money. I'm sure you do, too. I don't know what I'm waiting around for...

Whatever is right... That was the night I picked up your 3 items and paid $9 for. Well I just counted the items on my receipt and it was a total of 27 items for $19 so "whatever" way would you prefer?? ha-ha

Is it that hard? I would love to do that. I really don't know that much about it?
