MY Huge Savings This Weekend!!!!

lisa_n_joe · 06-18-2007, 08:47 AM

I bought a lot and saved a bunch.

First I went shopping at Target, beginning balance was $153.46. I had a 10% discount shopping card for Target (reward for their card) which took off $15.35, $74.84 in coupons, which had a total savings of $90.19 balance i paid was $63.27!!! The cashier kept laughing and asked how did i do it. Of course i told her about this site.

Then off to the Mall to Bath and Body. They were having their final semi annual sale.
I got :
4 candles they were BOGO at $9.50 apiece , soap for $1.00 (reg $3.50)and 2 lotions that were $4.00 (originally $10.00) total savings $33.50. I spent $28.00

Later that day I went grocery shopping at walmart. Once again i had a bundle in coupons and frees. My total before coupons and frees were $428.55 after coupons my total was $302.54 for a savings of $126.01. Of course a manager had to come and put her key in because of all the coupons. The lady behind me in line couldn't believe it.

So let's see, this weekend I had a total savings of $249.69!!!!! I think i did good and Dh is STILL talking about it...

I am fairly new to this site and still I can't figure out how you guys do it. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Wow, you go lisa_n_joe! That's great. I still don't know how you gals do it for all the different things you get. I am still getting the hang of massive savings with coupons. I can do pretty well with diapers at Target. But that's about it.
