These days, the name of the game is trying to save MONEY! Who doesn't want to do that? The easiest way to save money is by couponing for the stuff you use everyday! Since I have been off work, I have learned to do pretty well with just that. A lot of my friends have asked my process and I want to do that with this blog. I hope you enjoy reading and learn LOTS!! Thanks for stoppin' by!

Todays Shopping Trip!


I may single-handedly lead to the destruction of all trees in Kentucky! LOOK AT THIS RECIEPT!

Thats what you want to see folks!

So before I tell you about my deals today I want to give my honest opinion on store choices.  I HIGHLY suggest BOTH Kroger and Rite Aid/Walgreens stores if you are serious about couponing.  While Walmart and Save-a-Lot may be cheaper to start out with they do not offer the same deals as Kroger and Rite Aid/Walgreens.  With that said you have to do your own thing.  If you would rather shop at Walmart then by all means; Go ahead but my blog will be *mostly* centered around "my stores" :)

Back to the deals ;)

Today I visited Rite Aid.  I also need to tell you that couponing takes a little bit of prep before hand. I always look at the stores ad online and check out my other favorite blogs for other "unadvertised" deals.  Today my Rite Aid list consisted of Dove Deodorant, Gas-X, Almay makeup, Old Spice, Olay Body Wash. I only bought 1 of those items! Im saying that so you know some deals may not work out!! It happens to the best of us!  I ended up buying Garnie Mousse (Clearance for $2.24-Had $1 coupon=$1.24!), '
Olay bar soap ($3.59 and got a secret deodorant FREE),
Suave lotion (clearance for $1.99-.50=$1.49!),
Uncle Bens Rice X2 (On sale for $2.29-$1 coupon=$1.29; PLUS $1 Up+Reward!) *Will cover that later*
Celestial Seasoning Tea X2 (Not a good deal but had 2 coupons and needed tea ;)
Old Spice deodorant X2 (50% off!! 2.89/piece PLUS had a Buy One Get One coupon! So I only paid $2.89 for BOTH!!)

Im not going to go over my Kroger purchases simply because the sales go off tomorrow but I WILL post the deals for this week tomorrow!
