Trying to be a money saving momma


My new mission in life is to utilize coupons more effectively. Carrie and Courtney are my heroes, and they were nice enough to share some of their secrets. Check out what I bought today:

4pk 60 watt lite bulbs $1.99 with $1.99 rebate = FREE

Pert Plus shampoo $3.79 with $3.79 rebate AND $1 coupon = FREE plus $1.00 overage

2 pkgs. of ballpoint pens on sale for 2/$1.00 with $1 coupon = FREE

4 bags of Hershey's Bliss Chocolates $3.00 each with $2 off 2 coupon (twice) PLUS 4 $1 coupons PLUS $5 rebate = FREE plus $1.00 overage

WAHOO!

That's awesome Shelby! Coupons are great (when you know what you are doing!). I'm still trying to get that all down. Ben is way more coupon-savvy than I am!
