$1.75 !!!!!

My Albertson's receipts said that I paid a total of $1.75 and saved $57 -- wooHoo!!!

How did I do it?

I just imitated her exact purchases that she posted about and it worked. I am so pumped and had to share it with all of you because you should know about this site and all of the good deals that are waiting to be had.

Two weeks ago, if you had told me that I could save money by cutting coupons I would have given you all of the reasons that I didn't have the patience or the time to do what was required to save the money.
.
Well, let's just say that I have had a change of heart! I found out about this site on the news one night and then checked out her website. She gives the detail and step-by-step instructions that I needed to get rolling and now I know so much more about how to save money.
.
I used to shop only at Winco because it is super cheap but now I am saving so much using coupons and double coupons at stores like Albertsons and Safeway that I don't end up buying as much at Winco except for the basics and produce, etc.
.
The best part besides saving money is that we are building up a great "family store" in the garage for our food storage.
.
I have learned that I could easily become obsessed with all the deals but I just try to do a couple deals a week and NOT try to do them all because I wouldn't have any ink left in my printer.
