HI,
Hope you gals don't mind me posting a NEW thread.

I'm wondering what kind of deals did you get today or this week, or any day? and what did you have to do to get that kind of deals......silly questions, but info. like this will help me very much, since I'm still pretty new to being frugal.

I finally use COUPONS for the first time today when I grocery shop.

I bought 5 packs of 12 cans Pepsi product for $8. Store have a special, 5 packs for $10, and I have two 50Cents coupons, they Double their coupons today too. So happy

and still amaze by coupons. Got 60 cans of pepsi product for $8.
What I have to do to get this deal is, save the coupons I found a month ago, and wait until the store have their sales on that product. I learn this tip from many of the gals on here, and I tried it, and still amaze by how much I save. It would of cost me $19.95 total, but instead it only cost me $8 (I know, many of you probably got better deals before, but this is my first time, and I'm just so excited).

Thanks for reading.......and don't forget to share your ideas...deals...secrets...

GOOD JOB! Doesn't it feel great to save money that way? Just takes a bit of time and organization and you can save a LOT!

I don't coupon because we don't get the paper and I only really shop at Aldis, don't buy soda or many convience foods at all, mostly cook from scratch and grow our own veggies.

A good deal for me is when the feed store has ripped bags, they always tape them up really well and save them for me and discount them at least $1.00 each.

WTG You will get the hang of it in know time and will have a very well stocked freezer and pantry.

That is great! I would continue to use the coupons, buy lost lenders and soon you will be amazed at what your stockpile looks like!

Great deal! We don't use coupons often here b/c most of what we buy there are never coupons for (fresh fruits and veggies, chicken, etc...) but it's great when there is one. We also don't have doubles
