    Talking Saved lots in coupons

    I was so surprised t the money i saved today. I went to schnucks i don't go there very often, but i had so many items i needed and they had them on sale. I stocked up. I spent $210.66 minus $91.00 in coupons. So i spent a total of around $119.00.. I have not stocked piled in awhile. so im getting myself back on track..

    And so many say that coupons are a waste of time Guess you showed them

    I love coupons, and in truth we wouldn't be making it w/o them. Well, at least not eating as good.

    Excellent savings!
