Norma - Thanks for your kind words. Two years ago, before I really perfected using coupons, I did a coupon shopping trip through a local store with the local news. They had done it with a woman in another store, asked on TV for our comments. I said, "I can do that!" So, they set up a time and brought their camera crew. We had it approved through the store mgt. I purchased $42 and paid $14, thought that was good, but now can save 90% in most cases.
Thanks for the envelope of coupons. It arrived just in time for the Triple Coupon Shopping Trip. Yesterday was the first time I'd seen a coupon spit out at the register at Bloom when I bought a certain product. I've seen it happen at Bi-Lo, Publix, Ingles, Food Lion. It did it two different times, $5 each time on the next order, to be used on the next order, not specifically that product! The savings add up!
I still have Saturday and Sunday to do more shopping trips, and I have a good supply of coupons. After 3 trips to 3 different Bloom stores yesterday, I purchased $108 for $11 and used 3 gallons of gas which is $1.71 here.
The news lady on TV posted her savings, bought $100, paid $60. I posted my savings on her Blog and they had to be approved. I'll listen tonight to see if she mentions my post. She is the one who did the Coupon Shopping Trip with me 2 yrs ago.
