How did you do?

So because I stocked up so much last week I didn't really buy a lot this weekend, just the necessities with a few stock up items - I love the Tyson anytizers that were on sale this week. So I was wondering how you guys did? What were your costs and savings? I am dying to hear!!

Why do you?

I would like to start adding other couponers stories onto this blog to help show people how couponing can help improve their lives so I would like for you to send me an email with your story about why you coupon, how you came across couponing and what your best spent/saved scenario is. My email is: tkmiller81002@yahoo.com

It works!!

I had my very first coupon class on August 8th and one of the ladies that came to my class and ordered her 5 papers and followed what I taught her emailed me this today:

I did it! I did it! I did it!!!

Albertsons. I did a total of 3 transactions.

First Transaction: Spent $31.57, saved $42.19…. BUT I had a $5 coupon that printed out, plus the $20.00 mail in rebate (so really I only spent $11.57 on this transaction) (I also had a $4 coupon, among other coupons that I used, which was earned purchasing some ice cream last week.)

Second Transaction: Spent $3.64, saved $13.72 (I had a $4 coupon that had printed out from some ice cream I bought last week, so I used that on this transaction)

Third Transaction: Spent $1.57, saved $7.43 (I used my $5.00 coupon that printed out of my first transaction.)

Total after all of my coupons/rebates/sale items? Value of items: $100.12, spent (after my mail in rebate) $16.78

THANKS FOR SHOWING ME HOW TO DO THIS!!!!
