Coupon Madness

I’ve been reading a lot of blogs about couponing. I’ve never been good at using coupons but I’ve been inspired to give it a try. I bought a binder on ebay and have set up a system for coupons. Today was the first day I tested it out. I went to Albertsons and I spent a total of $93.82, but I saved $71.56, I’m very exited about that! Here’s some of the deals I got:

Buy a Tyson Heat N Eat dish (I got bourbon Beef) $7.49
Buy a Country Crook Sides $5.49 w/.50 off PC =4.99
And Buy a Fresh Express salad kit $4.49 w/ .50 off PC= 3.99
Then use the $5.00 off meal deal coupon
On the Country Crook the was a coupon for $1.00 store packaged meat (ground beef was on sale for $1.99 a lb so I was about to use the cpn on that)
Plus I had a .55 off cpn for the Tyson Heat N Eat.
Retail Total $17.47, total after cpn, $10.92 (plus I got the coupon for $1.00 off the meat)

They also had a deal where you buy one Sara Lee Pie for $6.39, then you get one pie free PLUS two free Breyers Ice Cream. So retail on that $25.56, but I paid $6.39

I used some other coupons too, but nothing too big.
