I got a lot of other stuff, the above were my best deal examples, I used my 3 Albertson's "doublers" of course.....

I ran out of room in my cart and went back for some other items I had coupons for: these were the items I'd planned to buy before I left home, knowing they'd all be deeply discounted, and knowing I had a lot of coupons for each item.....adding coupons to deep store discounts is SO amazing sometimes!.....

Ain't couponing grand?
Kelley, you're absolutely amazing? My only question is: where do you put all this stuff when you get it home? Love to read ALL your blogs! Peggy
ReplyDeleteFunny you should ask....We have 3 freezers. One with the fridge, one smaller ice chest, and we just got a new giant freezer for the garage. They're all almost full now. As for the non-perishables: We have two pantry's full! I just organized my basement space so we have room now for actual food storage space. Before that it was in an extra bedroom :) But I feel SO good now that I have a TON of food storage....relieved actually. It's nice to know I can take care of my family's needs on a tiny income. Thanks for stopping by!
