 I'm new at this so how did I do?
Ok so 10/31/09 (Sat) I went to ShopRite and caught the last day of the sale. Here's what I bought: 2-18oz dial body wash-$2.49ea. 2-4.6 oz colgate toothpaste-$1.49ea 1-12.2oz box of Froot loops 1-land o lakes butter 1-proctor silex food chopper-$6.99 Before coupons total-$18.91 Coupons: $1/1 kelloggs apple jacks or froot loops 2-$1/1 dial body wash 2-$0.50/1 colgate (doubled to $1) $0.50/1 land o lakes (doubled to $1.) Total after coupons-$12.85 Iknow I'm new at this and a lot of you are pros but I felt such an accomplishment after I left this store. My mother was laughing at me because she couldn't understand how a person could get so excited over coupons  .

Well I say you did nicely! A savings is a savings, no matter how much or how little. What's important is you are doing it, are getting a rush from it, (always a good sign! LOL!), and you are happy with what you have accomplished! And this is only the beginning! The best is yet to come! Congratulations!  |

Thank you ladies. Like I said I know it's not much but it does feel good to save any amount especially in today's economy. One day I'll be good enough to start getting things for free!!!

You saved about 33% on your first try! Before you know it, it'll be 50%, then 60%, then 75%! We all started where you are - you'll be a pro before you know it! Just keep reading this forum and using AFC. Great job! |

| Well, i think it was good! I was so excited the first time i went to the store and saved about 30% on my first trip. Nowwwwwwwww after only being on here for 1 month this week, I have done so much better! Last week, I went grocery shopping and my total was roughly $96 BUT after my supercard and coupons I only paid $34.00. Ok, seriously.....I was almost crying!!!!! I'm a single mom and my food bill was always my second highest bill. Now it isn't ANDDDDDDD for the first time in 8 years....MY PANTRY IS FULL!!!! I LOVE AFC!!!!!!!! You are going to love it here and everyone is soooo helpful and kind.
