I know Monica wanted me to add up my triple-coupon-shopping SF CRTs.... so I thought I'd share:

I came home from Monica's with $609.15 worth of groceries.

After coupons = $25.91

Not bad, considering I bought my son a silly $1.00 notebooke and myself 3 of SF's reusable bags -- very cute designs.

Now I need to go find/clip more coupons for triples at my store next week.

Edited to add what I bought:

58 boxes of Kleenex
100 tictacs -- these will be used as teacher appreciation gifts at my son's school
12 Motts Apple Juice
4 Club crackers
5 Oatmeal Crisp Raisin cereal
6 rolls of Viva
1 Fruity Cheerios
8 bottles of kids' L'oreal
15 boxes of Kotex liners
4 Suave deo
4 bottles of Pert
?? Excedrin -- I left these at Monica's, not sure how many I bought
20 tubes of Colgate toothpaste
2 pkgs of Hefty plates
7 bags of Werthers
too many to count Menthos gum
and some other odds and ends

I know it would take too long to type it all out but what the heck did you get??? That is wonderful!!! I did very well but nothing like that.

Is it all for you (didn't know if you donate to food banks) and if so where do you plan on keeping it all?

Again- GREAT JOB!

I'll type out a list later....

To be honest, most of the stuff I will keep. I will share some of the toothpaste with my friends. Where will I keep it? At the moment, my son has used it all to build a 'fort' for his Lego men (on my kitchen table)!!

I spent $41.18 on $213.93 worth of groceries! That's an 80.8% savings!
($20 of that is Gerber grads snacks that I had .75/2 coupons for so they were the cheapest I could ever buy them, but not free).

[sweetsali]

Today my bill was $149.33 I paid 67.54 Saved 81.79!
My eyes got big and DH was with me. He was adding things to the cart and I actually got some meats within this price. Have not shopped for groceries in a Month so I think I did good.
My steals were:
12 Bottles of Nesta Tea for FREE w/overage of $1.20! (cashier put each Q in for $1.49 when I looked a receipt price was 1.39)
6 Packs of Mentos .17 each- $.55 off Q
Ziplock Bags for .49 Ea.-$.55 Q
Marked down Steaks for 1.49, 1.69, 1.39, 1.19 & 2.15! Each pack was at least 1lb! Coupons attached were for $2 off each pack
Turkey Hill Tea 1/2 Gal Free-.50 off Q
Deer Park 2.88-$1 Q
2 Nabisco Oreos 2/5-$.75 off Q made them 2.75 for two packs.
Luzianne Tea- 2.39 used .60 off made them .59 each (great for making pitchers of tea)

I thought I would have done better I needed more than I thought I did.

My coupon savings were $97.xx and I paid $40.xx. I got some regular groceries in there, too, so I was pretty happy! I'll post the frees after triples I got later!

[coupondazed]

Ill have to break it down later but I only paid $4.84 today for $70 worth of groceries! WHOOT! Oh I LOVE triples.

[coupondazed]

Oh I am really getting the hang of this coupon thing and triples and how to REALLY work them. My friends tease me that I get a glazed look when I hear triples will be arriving. I cant help it but tonight was my BEST run EVER! before coupons $65 and after....-20 cents!!!!!! Now if I was REALLY good I would have worked that into my grocery order and gotten some more items as to not loose my 20 cents but dang I have never walked out of a grocery store without paying anything before. My DH says If I can find a way to do that at Home Depot he will build me a castle! Any tips ladies????

[CARRIEMB2]

I think we need to get the tips from you!! Way to Go!!!!!!!!!!

I stopped by Whole Foods & Genuardis this weekend for Mambo Sprouts & the Olympics books. In WF I also found a tear pad with 55q's for Odwalla bars. DD lives on these. In SF they ended up being .01 . I also used the Back to Nature .70 q for free mac & cheese. Between these, the Suave body wash & deoderant among other things, we put a small dent in college shopping for her. We ended up with $150 worth for $15. I think DD caught the fever.
