post Category: Coupons Rock, Life post postJuly 28, 2008

Sooo  a lot of you guys have asked about my couponing, how much I actually get, spend, etc. I really can’t explain coupon, it’s something that you have to figure out what’s best for you. I’ve been trying to keep my spending to under $100 a week, this week I am right under $50. You might be wondering where the meat & meals are…well I am actually stocked up on that well enough where I didn’t need to buy any meat or meal stuff. By the way OOP = Out of Pocket. Couponing isn’t something you can just grab a bunch of coupons & just go to the grocery store…you need to look at sales, prices, etc. For CVS I find great deals on HCW and order coupons a few weeks ahead of time so I can get multiples of each items.

Spent $14 on produce for the week
Store #1

 

Retail: $33.16 | OOP: $5.32 | Savings: $27.84 / 87%
Store #2

 

Retail: $139 | OOP: $26.68 | Savings: $112.12 / 81%

I e-mailed Chapman’s Icecream company and gave them my home address. They sent me a few coupons and one of them is for a $3.00 off a tub of icecream or yogurt. Chapmans is on sale at the grocery now for $3.50 - I might very well get myself some….for $0.50 hehe.

Wow that’s some awesome savings! I’m usually one to grub on free razors when my school gives them away. Razors are super expensive and if you can get them for free why not?
