The Coupon Junkie*

With my $5/$5 from Family Circle I got 2 Stocking Stuffers:   ...and with my $10/$10 I got:    Wrapping paper is Buy 1 Get 1 for .99... get 4 and pay $3.xx!

This was so last minute...like im talking 3am i decided id go!!! The store opened @ 8am, so my husband got home at 7:30, woke me up and we left! There was no one in the store! Surprising! My Trip went like this: 2 - Legos Org. $19.99 on sale for $14.99 used two target $5/lego coupons 2 - My little pony with remote Orig. $22.99 on sale for $17.99 used a target 50% off your purchase of 2. 1 - Little People Airport Orig. $39.99 on sale for $19.99 used $5/1 Fisher Price Coupon 1 - Little People Nativity Orig. $27.99 on sale for $13.99 <<<---great price!!! used Target $5/1 Fisher Price Q   [we already have one but got this one for my parents house seeing as my moms ceramic one always gets touched by the kids!] Total Before Savings =$179.xx Total Oop = $89.00 (from my xmas account) Saved $69.98 **I always focus on the little kids in my family first, then i do my parents, sister, and husband, seeing as they are either really easy or just giftcards!**

I don't usually got to two grocery stores, but I decided to today seeing as we needed a ton of stuff! So I did BigY and Stop and Shop. Lots of BOGO and BOG2 Items this week!!  My mom had gotten a $5 off any turkey @ BigY coupon last week and gave it to me. So i got a $12 Turkey [decent size for a family of 3.5!] We'll have it after TG sometime once we come out of our Turkey coma from my parents house! haha. I also had a coupon for spend $40 get a gold coin, plus we won two silvers! I also had a $10/50 coupon from Recycle bank! Total before savings = $178.54 My Total OOP was $86.xx  Saved 55% and got another coupon for spend $40 get a Gold Coin.

WELL... I had 2 Lego BDay presents to buy, 1 for this weekend and one in a couple weeks, so considering Legos aren't cheap I was trying to figure out how I was going to do this the cheapest way! So last night i checked my email and say there was a coupon for BOGO1/2! PERFECT! So I picked up two $34.99 sets. I also got two carters outfits and a pair of xmas Jammies for Braeden and a pack of M&Ms for a filler item [needed to spend $100]. [Sorry i don't have a picture to post... the people's kids who they are for read my blog ;-)] So my subtotal was $105. I handed over my $10/100 TRU Coupon and it went right through. Then gave my $3/3 Birthday Club Coupon as well as my Lego Coupon. After the cashier scanned the last 2 coupons he hands me back the $10/100 and tells me i now cant use it cause using the other two coupons made my total $85. I said yeah, but my subtotal was $105! So he starts getting up in arms about it. I didn't feel like arguing and i DON'T know exact
