When I am shopping with coupons I feel like this ballerina doing Swan Lake or something.
I feel like I am gracefully fluttering on tip toe through the store. I slightly bend forward to check a price on something not on sale. I do a flying leap past all the full priced items to land every so gently in front of the canned soup (which is on sale this week). I turn two full circles with hands over head celebrating my great find. I fill my cart with 12 cans of soup and push my cart with one hand while the other is extended out flowing gracefully to the side, all the way to check out. As I get to check out, I greet the cashier will a smile while removing my find from the cart. It takes another full circle to retrieve my coupons and hand them to the cashier. "Here comes the big finish" I think to myself. The cashier looks at the total and says, "Wow!" with great surpise. I give another quick spin, perfect performance! I take an oncore bow and work myself out the door.
I think all of the coupon people should have a tutu that we wear when grocery shopping.
Here is the break down. The soup is on sale at Kroger this week.
12 cans of soup 4 were chicken noodle 8 were tomato. sale 10/$5 I had .40/4 coupons (used 3 coupons) final= .30ea

That was a great post Kim! Is this deal at Kroger? Did you only have 1 coupon for .40 cents off or was it more? I am ready to stock up on some soup!
That is hilarious! I'd love to see you waltzing through Kroger in a fluffy pink tutu. I'll come along and we can be like the dancing ostriches in Fantasia.
So funny! You will have to break into Faith's dress up box for some bling before your next shopping trip!
