Adventures in Couponing


I don't usually use coupons, but I do watch for the especially good ones. Lately, though, with the prices on most everything going up, I've been looking further and further into couponing and refunding.


Yesterday, I went grocery shopping. I didn't deplete my final bill like a real coupon queen, but I was proud of my savings. I used a coupon I printed out from the internet for some lunchmeat i would have bought anyway bringing the price of a variety pack down to $1.29. I got a free box of Kashi Lean cereal. I got this one through Vocalpoint. :) An unexpected deal was at Krogers. I had received 2 coupons for Aim toothpaste in the mail for $1.50. I'm assuming everyone receives these. Kroger had these on sale for $1.99 so that brought my price down to .49 each. I was thrilled to get it. My savings were $7.75.


I signed with Nestle a few days ago. Today they sent me coupons for Juicy Juice which is 100% juice and not cheap. It's amazing that adding stuff to it makes it cheaper. Anyway, I like to get this when I can and it is at a good price.


Anyway, I'm digging deeper into this couponing adventure to help make ends meet. I'm also using refunding more and will let you know more about it soon.


Hope your day is pleasant.
