Went through all my coupons last night and decided to go use a majority of them (like the amazing Kraft ones where you can buy 3 packs of Kool Aid and get free cheese, hot dogs, Crystal Light, salad dressing and Wheat Thins).  Here’s the breakdown of categories of spending:

  • Household - $22.25
  • Beer - $16.29
  • Pet Supplies - $12.85
  • Pet Food - $.18
  • Groceries - $33.53

That’s a total of $85.10 and our original total before coupons was $166.35!  We saved $81.25 in coupons. Not too shabby.

  • 2 packs of tortillas: $1.56 each
  • 4 boxes of Orville 100 Calorie Popcorn Snacks: $2.32 each - 4/$1 coupons = $1.32 each
