Not meaning to brag but....

So, the past couple of months I have been working on cutting coupons and making a food storage. I never thought I would say that grocery shopping is fun, but I have really been enjoying it! I'm not as good (yet) as some women I know are but to see the savings and see my food storage grow is amazing! Take for instance, Sat. night I went to Albertson's, (wild child aren't I!!) and did my shopping. I had spent a good part of the night before planning what I was going to shop for. I walked out spending $75.26!! Not to bad for someone who used to think she was doing well walking out spending $300! Now alot of the stuff that I shopped for wasn't things I would necessarily use this week, but that is what is nice is now I have storage growing and can try and plan as much of my meals as I can with what I have stored! My savings that night were $196.25!! How great is that! Plus, I got a free Redbox rental code on my reciept, and had another $1.00 off coupon to use next time I shop. I am also now at $0.90 off for gas the next time I fill up there! There was some things that were gone already when I got there, but I just went the next day and price matched at Walmart! For instance I was able to price match the Edge Shaving Gel for men for $1.50. Was regularly like 2.32 at Walmart, then I had a $0.75 coupon, Was able to pick up 3 cans for $0.75 a piece! There are so many amazing deals to find there if you can be patient and wait for the items to go on sale! I know I have felt a huge difference! Being the big dork that I am, I took pictures of my shopping trip, how weird am I staging food at midnight for a pic?? LOL! Oh well I wanted others to see my small, but big, success!!
