Coupons! Coupons! Coupons!

I never though cutting coupons would be so much fun. I have been very motivated lately(like most of the nation) in cutting my grocery bill. I started getting the Sunday paper so I could get my hands on all the adds and super savers!! Before I started doing this our monthly grocery bill was between $600-$650.
So the first week I kept thinking that it was pretty boring sitting at the kitchen table on Sunday afternoon reading the adds, making lists and clip, clip, clipping. I started by clipping out the coupons of what we usually buy and stopping at the closest grocery store to my house. Not bad for my first week. Total spent $ 119 Total saved $ 23. So as time has gone by I am getting better at this. Now I make my list, clip my coupons and then check out the adds and see which store will save me the most money(some stores double coupons). Sometimes I shop at 2 stores on the same day to take advantage of the best deals(bonus!! because they are across the street from each other). This week I spent $147 and saved $61.50. YIPPEE!!! I wish I would have been doing this a long time ago. Since January my monthly bill has dropped $ 104. It takes extra time but is SOOO worth it! I have also been learning a lot of tips from the savy saver blog. Happy shopping.
