Pictures and savings!

I’ve uploaded some pictures from the Kentucky Special Olympics to my picasa album.  I’ve still got some more to add, but I was killing Mike’s bandwidth for his game. :-P   Here is the link: Special Olympics 2011!

I’ve always liked coupons.  My mom and grandma taught me well when going clearance shopping or using coupons.  I must say though, as an adult I used them sparingly.  But seeing as though I don’t have a job here in KY,  we’ve had to cut back our spending.  Today, I went to Kroger and saved $43!! I’ve never said that much before! I was happy!  It wasn’t the extreme couponing like some of these TV shows show, but it was still $43 nonetheless!!!!  I’ve had a couple of people ask me how!    To put it in one word:  COUPONS!!!!  I had $12.45 in manufacturer coupons, that I had either printed off or cut out.  The other $30.55 came from the in store coupons/sales!!

Kroger had a lot of 10 for $10 sales going on this week!  Which helped a lot!  Yesterday, we received a “welcome to the neighborhood” circular from Kroger.  I was able to get a bag of chips for free, saved me $2.99.  I was able to also get a bag of Oreo cookies for free too.  Saved $3.19!  The circular also had spend $5 in the meat, produce and household departments and save $1.  I had 3 of those coupons!  I had a $4 coupon for Mike’s contact solution.  And miscellaneous other $1 and $.40 coupons.  Even the check-out gal said that’s a good deal! :)
