WELCOME

I am a stay at home mom who is fed up with spending a large portion of income on grocery bills. It is my job, according to God, to be a good help mate for my husband. I am trying to live up to my job description. I am starting a journey into the grocery coupon world and invite you to come with me. I have never used coupons for grocery shopping and as of January 1st 2008 I am diving in. I will be using http://www.thegrocerygame/ , http://www.moneysavingmom.com and the http://www.couponmom.com/ website to guide me on how to save money. I am going to treat this adventure as a part time job and put in the hours necessary to make it work. I am excited and nervous to get started.

Wal-greens and CVS trip

I was not going to use the Wal-Greens or CVS list this week but I went back on and printed some stuff from Wal-Greens to get. I was really looking for the Pull-Ups that I thought I could get at Kroger on sale yesterday. Well I found them at Wal-Greens.

Pull-Ups size 4t-5t Jumbo on sale 2/$16 bought 5 packs had 5- $2.00 coupons getting them for $6 a pack. This comes out to .28 per pull up and Sams price is .37 per pull up. Plus every 2 packs of Pull-Ups I got an 80ct Huggies wipes for free.

Windex anti-bacterial spray was on sale buy 1 get 1 free for $2.59. I used 2 coupons and got 2 bottles for $1.10 each. They are something like $3.59 each.

I went to CVS to put in a prescription and decided to look around since I had $3 of ECB to use and I needed a Diet Coke. Here is what I got:
2 liter of Diet Coke 1.79 (expensive but needed)
2 Glade sprays on sale .99 each I had a coupon for B1G1 free so they were .50 each
The cashier said I could'nt get $3 off because I had only spent $2.29 so I picked up a candy bar. When I checked out the cash register printed out 3 more coupons.
I walked out without paying anything!! LOVE IT!!!
