My First VERY Complicated Shopping Trip


I am sorry that I am so boring and keep posting about my grocery shopping trips, but every time I go I am just so amazed. I was really nervous for this shopping trip because it was a bit confusing and I knew it would take me a while at the cash register. But it really wasn't TOO bad, it started off actually really fun, the lady checking me out kept saying how proud she was of me!:) I was warned to left people know if they got in line behind you that you would be a while and to maybe go to a different line... so I did... and the first few people did go to a different line....but then for some reason some girl decided not to listen to me and stayed in line behind me and so I did start getting a little frazzled and started feeling rushed. All together though I would say the trip was a success... thanks to Liz for watching my girls so I didn't have to chase them around!
So for the totals....drum roll please.....

Total Grocery Value: $252.49
Total Paid: $63.73

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?!!?!!

Thats awesome girl! The girls can come over anytime to play. One day you will have to teach me how to save money! Way to go!

Awesome about the shopping trip! You will have to tell me your secrets. I have tried doing that a few times, but I just always don't need what they have coupons for. How did you do it?

I just got caught up on your blog. So cute. Ryder and I watched Sienna singing her ABC's and he was just laughing and laughing at her cute little giggle! So fun! I wish we saw you more!

You are such an awesome mom and so thrifty. Seth is a lucky guy!

Great job! Smart not to take the girls with you. It takes a while to get confident in couponing. Soon you will know the store policies better than the cashiers. Have fun with it!

DANG you are going to have to teach me this trick of yours...is this just coupons?
And I need to talk to you soon...watch out for that ;)
