We left town for the holiday and so I just had to get a few things to us get through the week. This was a trip to Kroger and here's the breakdown:
-French's Spicy Mustard: Normally $1.99 but on sale for $.99. with a $.35 coupon that doubled, the mustard was $.29
-The Greek yogurt was $2.89 each, for a pack of 4. Saved $1.50 with a Kroger coupon. Since I had two of those, each four pack was $1.39.
-I saved $1.39 on the sausage combining a coupon with a store sale.
-The peanut butter was 50% off and I had a coupon that doubled.
-The provolone cheese and the peaches rounded out the purchase, with no coupons.
All in all it was a $9.29 savings, spending $10.02. Couponers have a reputation for buying a lot of processed foods, but I hope this reflects a different story. It's also a picture of what normal couponing typically looks like. Television shows lead you to believe that 90% savings is normal. Saving 40-60% is fairly typical.
Happy Shopping!
