    Talking Yay for me!!

    Went to CVS today, after carefully clipping coupons, matching up sales with coupons, and printing out my extracare bucks. Total before all the subtractions was 65.77. After coupons, sales, etc, 28.11. Nice to see what a little time invested was able to get! All stockpiling stuff, as well...toothpaste, tp, shampoo, etc.

    You did great. I love the deals that CVS has that you can also pair your coupons up with.

    Good for you! Fun to just stand there gloating, looking at your loot.

    Good for you!! I'm going to start doing the CVS deals this year. I've been a little afraid of the technique but have decided to start small and see how it goes.

    Thanks! We took my brother in law with us, and when we got back to the house, he kept telling all of our family how cool it was that we saved so much money.
