Crazy Coupons


I am going to be a nerd- and post about my trip to the store today. Kmart (yes- I drove 10 miles to get to one) is offering double coupons up to $2 this week. Well, I learned that the crazy coupon ladies come out in full force for this event. IT IS WILD! However, with some preperation and planning- you can get some freebies and some good deals. I focused my trip on things we needed or use each month and things that we can save for a rainy day. We may end up donating a few items as well (as most things we bought were free with coupons- it was hard to pass them up).
My before coupon total was about $85. Do keep in mind that some things can be overpriced at Kmart to begin with. Still, I spent only $17.13 for all of the following items.
I love being able to save money on these items and spend it on other things or save it for the things we need to help improve our house!

Way to go, Mel! It does take some thought and organizational effort to make these trips worthwhile and successful! Not for the faint of heart!

Good for you! I was unable to do it this week because of my stupid internship, but did the doubles at K back in June. Looks like you got a lot of good stuff and I am jealous!
