Today was the very first day we tried coupon shopping. The result for today’s shopping efforts before coupons subtotal was $134.43. After using our small stack of coupons the subtotal was $123.63. Total coupon savings of $10.80. Not bad for a couple of amateur coupon shoppers that started coupon clipping a couple hours earlier from printed internet coupons.
After unloading the groceries my wife browsed a few other coupon websites to download and print are next batch of coupons for shopping. This adventure has already become addictive in a short time frame.
We stayed true to what we would normally buy at the grocery store and still saved money with are coupons. We are trying to make subtle changes in shopping with are coupons to really see how much we were spending and saving in these hard economic times.
With just a few coupons and a weekly trip to the grocery store $10.80 a week will be an easy $40.00 to $50.00 a month saved while shopping with coupons. When you have four kids in the house you can’t ignore the easy ways to save money. Let’s face it six people in one home is a large family by today’s standards.
All in all this new sport of coupon shopping is fun and exciting. I even actually enjoyed shopping with my wife. It was like what’s next or where is the next deal at honey. Heck we might even get to retire some day!!!
