    I'm in Last night was my first grocery shopping trip of the new year. I saved $41.17 with coupons and $32.78 by using my Tops Cuisinart points to get a FREE Cuisinart mini chopper.

    We also got a new printer last night (only $29!) so I can print coupons again.

    So far this year I've spent $20 on papers for coupons.
