It was one of my best (savings-wise) outings. I had a $5 off a $30 purchase coupon, plus a couple of store coupons printed from the in-store kiosk, plus manufacturer's coupons. All those babies stacked up!

I got a variety of shampoos, razors, body wash, cleaners... all things we will use. I do not hoard for the sake of having it!

The total was $51 and some change. After coupons it was $20.19... and I got $13 worth of Extra Bucks for next time. Sweet!

It doesn't always work so nicely, and even with all those stacked coupons, sometimes the deals just aren't that great. But today I got much more than $20 worth, so I was pleased. I don't always do the coupon thing regularly. Sometimes life just gets too busy and I take a few weeks (or months) off from the coupon game. Today was a good day.
