I honestly feel this was well worth my time & patience...both stores I went to were jammed! I spent a total of $143.45 for $445.30 in goods. I used a total of $79.20 in coupons, a world record for me, I think. You had to be a bit careful, I will tell you because some of the things seemed to be more than they are normally...little price jacking going on I think! At any rate, I mostly bought things that I don't normally find on bogo anywhere and things we use ongoing all the time.
Paper goods were very scarce. Laundry detergent, I got large bottles of Whisk with my coupons for $2.54 each, which is not bad for Whisk. Purex with Zout for $2.00, the large one. Truvia sweetner....my all time favorite is normally $3.99 for the 40 ct. package. I got those for $1.11 each....I now have 10 of those and I won't be buying laundry soap for a year at least! Marzetti Cole Slaw Dressing, which is normally $3.99 (and is a staple at our house for Potato Salad as well), were $1.25 I think. I am very pleased with the day, I'm tired, but pleased. I would suggest if you plan on going...they are closing at 6:00 PM nightly, go tomorrow with your coupons in hand....EARLY and with much patience! My friend, Launa, did very well too.
Funny anecdote....I passed a lady and her husband in a couple of different aisles and finally the man looked over at me (his wife had a huge basket, he was pushing it, and no coupons)...he looked over at me with my two big notebooks full of coupons and my full basket and he said..."you're having a ball, aren't you?" I had to laugh and I said is it that obvious? He said yes, I can tell you are in your element. ha too funny, I bet my eyes were glazed over too! ha ha. My friend, Tammy said I had a "Coupon Buzz"...ha!
Have a good evening and God Bless.
