Coupon Shopping Trip

I was able to go into town this evening and do some "coupon" shopping as I like to call it. 

Homeland, one of our grocery stores, had a pretty good sale on. I haven't been saving coupons the last few months so I didn't have near what I would have liked to have, coupon wise, when I went into the store. Breaks my heart that I got depressed and stopped clipping them.

Most of the coupons today I printed from Swagbucks so I will get  10 swagbucks for every single one I used. That will be about 120 swagbucks..so not too shabby. I like to use Swagbucks because it allows me to earn a little extra spending money for items for Christmas. That always makes it nice. 

Here is a list of my haul today. I didn't take a photo before putting it all up and now I wish I had :-)

10 packages Feminine Products   

4 toothbrushes

1 tube coalgate toothpaste

30 bars Ivory soap

8 bars soft soap

2 soft soap body wash

1 Bar Keepers Friend Cleaner

8 Boxes Suddenly Salad

26  Boxes  Hamburger Helper

4 Herbal Essence Shampoos

3 Herbal Essence Condition

1 Herbal Essence Mousse

8 Gillette Shaving Gel

4 Palmolive Dish Soap

4 Packages Hefty Food Storage Bags

2 Reach Dental Floss

6 Bags Bugle Chips

20 rolls Angel Soft Toilet Paper

5 Rolls Sparkle Paper Towels

Total Retail Cost $274.58

Total I spent $76.82

I also have $4 CVS ECB and $4 worth of registar rewards to spend in those stores. 

I saved 72% on items today. 

This helps my family to stretch our money just as far as we can possibly stretch it. 

For the record, I believe in giving to food pantries, shelters, and others in need. I do have a stockpile but I always try to share. :-)
