Why couponing is so great for your family!!

Last week I couldn't have cared less about doing any couponing deals.I really don't know what I missed & that's OK with me, some weeks are like that.
This week has been great so far & it's only been 2 days. I don't do any shopping on Sundays so that's why it's only been 2 days for me.
You'll need to click on the photos to see them up close, I'm having trouble with iPhoto right now. When I fix it, then I'll get them fixed here.
DAY 1:
The paper I got at Staples for FREE (after rebate/coupons), however I used previous rebate $, so no money left my wallet!
The rest of the stuff is from Rite Aid, oh I had a blast!!After coupons, +Ups & rebates I will make $16.57!! But you could really say I got all of these products PLUS $16.57 because once again I paid for all of those items at the register using previous rebate $.


DAY 1 Con't:
Onto Albertsons
I did this in 2 transactions at 2 different stores.All in total I paid $6.50, plus I also have 2 coupons for FREE milk to use later.

Monday was a HUGE day, it only cost me $6.50 for all of that!

DAY 2:
Albertsons (yes, again)This cost me $4, notice the M&Ms? There were peelie coupons on the Rice Krispies for FREE M&Ms at checkout. PLUS 2 more coupons for FREE milk.


Now, if you've seen the Kelloggs deal (here) you'll see how I did it.
Kelloggs is also offering a rebate of $10 for every 10 boxes you buy (select kinds). This is a program that is going all year so you don't have to buy them right now, but I would suggest soon. They may end the program early, you just never know. Go here for details on the rebate program.
So now I have acquired 10+ of the participating boxes & will get a $10 gift card soon.
Tuesday cost me $4!

Then all this came in the mail Monday & Tuesday.Always send away for free things in the mail, my pile is huge with this stuff and they're great little gifts if you don't use them.Plus, a lot of times you'll get some great coupons!


I may be all couponed out this week, but look at what I got in 2 days with only spending $10.50 OOP (out of pocket).
If you think you don't have time or it's too complicated and you decide that it's just not worth it, then you're missing out.Look how I just saved my family tons of $ in just 2 days, even with all 3 kids with me most of the time.
Kris & I would love to show you how you can incorporate this into your schedule.Does it take a lot of time? It is time consuming, but it doesn't rule my week.
