All of these items were bought with coupons.Each item cost .14 cents or was free!
Well the great debate is finally over! COUPONS REALLY WORK!
As I mentioned above, each of these items was .14 cents or free. Here is the breakdown: (+ means what I was credited; - means what I spent)
14 boxes of Honey Bunches of Oats cereal (203 oz) @ +.02 cents per box
9 bars Johnson and Johnson Buddies soap @ .00 cents per soap
10 packages of Clean Team wipes (620) @ -.14 cents per package
15 packages of Ocelo sponges (26) @ -.14 cents per package
6 bottles of Bath and Body Works soap (52.5 oz) @ .00 cents per bottle
2 boxes of Zantac (16 pills) @ +1.02 dollars per box
3 boxes of Scotch Brite toliet scrubbers @ .00 cents
(3 handles and 12 scrubbers) per box
Total: $ 1.18
Estimated cost for all items: $ 151.05
So YES, coupons really work and I should definitely "waste" my time!

Rachel you are a wonder! Super Shopper!
Congratulations of a month of great deals! Wow, you did great!
I've recently started using coupons, too. I recognize some of the same savings that you have in your photo. It's fun, huh! My husband now asked what I got for free when I've gone to the grocery! :)
how did you get the bath n body soap for that price? You did a great job.
(I am a friend of Beth's!)
Wow! You did awesome for your first month! That is really good especially for a beginner! I was like you for a while, wondering if coupons worked but then when I started and now have saved around $2,000 this year alone, I'm a believer!!
yes, I know you are Beth's sister in law! Actually, I met you once at the church. I believed you signed the song "How Beautiful" during an Easter Service (talking back in '99?)
No I do not do coupons. Still trying to see if it is worth it. I truly see the great sales everyone makes but the distance I have to drive and I only shop once a month. So the question I am asking myself is the price of gas going to spend my savings? But I get thrilled when I see others saving money! I truly save just by shopping once a month!
Thanks for reading my blog... sometimes I wonder who does and why! :)
