I have never been one to use coupons. Don't know why, I guess I just assumed being a vegetarian I wouldn't find many that I could use.
Well, I clipped coupons out of the Sunday paper the last 2 weekend in a row, placed them in a little wallet size file and took them with me to the grocery store yesterday. I only bought items that we normaly purchase. My bill totalled $125. After they scanned my coupons I only owed $100. I saved $25.00!
I think with a little effort I could save even more.
I paired coupons with items that were already on sale, EX) if you purchased 3 boxes of Kellogs cereal, you save between $1.00 & $1.50 per box. I had a coupon for $1.00 off each box when you buy 3 boxes so I saved something like $7.00 off 3 boxes of cereal. I had 2 of these coupons so it is safe to say we are wel stocked on cereal for the moment!
