    Default I did really well at the market today...

    I bought $31 worth of groceries for $14!

    I had a 5% off your whole order coupon from the market and also a $10 rewards coupon. Then I got stuff on sale and had a manufacturer's coupon for $1 off bananas. I got salvage bananas for .66, but the register gave me $1 off.

    Anyway, I usually manage 10-30% off my groceries, depending on what's on sale and what coupons i have, but rarely manage 50% or more.

    Yeah!

    Isn't that the greatest feeling? VERY nice trip and I hope many more like it come your way!

    I love seeing shoppers beat the "system"!

    Great shopping. It's getting harder to find good deals so you really did a good job.

    Good job with saving so much. I do really well at Walgreens with some of their sales and combining my coupons. Not as well at our Wal-Mart. It just seems like they don't have many good deals here.
