Today was a challenging shop for me....
The challenge that I faced was due to the fact that my tween daughters accompanied me to the store. I coerced them into going by agreeing to take them to Shoe Carnival and Target if they went to the grocery store with me. They are a great help, but they tend to still whine about wanting this and wanting that...
I only gave in once and bought something off the list that wasn't on sale and that I didn't have a coupon for. Overall, it was a great shop. We stocked up on a lot of snack items such as chex mix and cheerios mix.
I have written about this before but I highly recommend subscribing to 2 Sunday editions of the paper. I get the Pantagraph and the Chicago Tribune. The money I save by subscribing to these allows me to buy multiple items with multiple coupons. I only subscribe to 2 papers since the grocery stores that I shop at will only double 2 coupons for the same item.
Today I spent $94 and saved $67!!!
I saved $15.25 for Meijer promotions.
I saved $38.73 for buying items that were on sale.
I saved $13.28 with coupons from my newspapers and Meijer Mealbox.
We are getting into the swing of things!!! Gotta love coupons!! :)
