couponing

In an effort to save money on groceries I have started some serious couponing. Our church had a "Couponing 101" conference that I attended and things started to click. I am still very new at all this couponing stuff but I feel good about the success I have had so far. We make a weekly trip to Publix. Yes, WE, we make it a family trip each week. Marshall loves going to "Puglix." Scott takes both kids in one cart and walks them around the store while I get all the groceries. Since starting couponing I haven't paid more than $1.50 for cereal and I have learned that toothpaste is FREE! I still have a lot to learn but I'm excited to save my family some money by using coupons effectively.

I got all of the groceries in these two pictures for $51.00

Before coupons my total was $130.00. I love watching my total go down as they scan my coupons. It just makes me happy.
