    Rebookie! You did great! Do you realize you got 13 items, meaning you paid about $1.80 per item? ~~~KACHING~~~ And except for the Mentos, you couldn't normally get any one of those items for $1.80. And as far as getting confused, well...I've been doing serious coupons for quite a few years now, and I still get confused. Take it with a "grain of salt", and learn from it. At least that's what I tell myself. Beats getting mad about it!

    Now try to keep track of your savings. It'll keep your incentive going, and it looks even better on paper. After about a month, you'll really see just how good you're doing!

    You go girl...lol!
