For the last couple of weeks, I have meticulously put together shopping lists in order to maximize my couponing deals. But after organizing everything the way I like it, I would get to the store and half of the items would be gone. I've come to realize that couponers are crazy and in order for me to play the game, I would have to be more active. So this morning, I got up at 5:15 to get to the store. And here are the fruits of my labors:
$7.35Smith's was having a great deal where you could buy 8 Kellogg's items for $1 each (plus I had coupons for most of the items). But it gets better. Kellogg's is also having a deal going on right now where you get $10 rebate when you purchase 10 participating items. What does this mean for me? Free groceries :) My total was going to be $6.35, but I found 2 packages of yogurt (not included in the Kellogg's sale) on clearance for $1.50 and I had two $1 off coupons.
Was all of this worth getting up at 5:15 am? The unemployed Natalia says yes. The rational Natalia who is now exhausted but can't fall asleep again says probably not.
