The best part of shopping was having a coupon for just about everything in my basket. The guy behind was grumbling about the coupons, but his jaw dropped when the cashier said that I saved $11.00 in coupons. That did not include the extra 5% off for using the stores credit card. My Ganga of the shopping trip was 5 bottles of Tide on sale for $4.47 ( the regular price is $6.99) with coupons of $4.00 off the 5 bottles. For a savings of over $16.00. It might seem like buying that much laundry detergent is hoarding, but I do an avarage of 21 loads a week, more when Eric is sick, so each bottle lasts about a week and a half. The savings did not end there. I needed to go to Joann's for some supplies for a class next week. I had a 40% off 1 item coupon and a very gracious lady ahead of me in line shared a 15% off the total purchase coupon. So that brought my total cost to &20.00. That brings the cost per student to a little more tha a $1.00 per student with some supplies left over.
I thought I screw up dinner. I bought salami instead of pepperoni for the pizza. You really do have to try salami on pizza, it was great. Well I have a few more things to do before bed tonight.
