Couponing

A couple weeks ago I posted a blog about my journey to begin couponing. This requires me to get all the coupons, check coupon blogs to see the deals, and wait for the right time to stock up on sales. I have my very own coupon binder full of coupons. 

I went with my friend Becky once and got 2 gallons of ice cream and 4 bottles of Tide Stain Remover for $1.29. I haven't gone since because I didn't know if I could figure it out on my own. But last night I went to the store and Daimian and I got a bag of carrots, 2 bags of lettuce, and 2 bottles of salad dressing for $1.99! 87% savings! My coupons made the lettuce free and the salad dressing .50 each. We would've paid almost $13 without the coupons. 

Here is my prize 2 dollar purchase:

Now, I know it isn't much, but for the first time shopping and figuring out my coupons by myself, I thought I did a pretty good job. More shopping trips to come :)
