    What a day of grocery shopping!
    Found all the deals and items i wanted. and then came time for the checkout.
    I pull out the binder to put coupons next to the items they are for, and people start to notice the volume.
    A small crowd (7 that I noticed) gathers to watch the cashier ring in coupons. She was new, and held on to all of them until the end!
    There was that heart stopping moment when the total came up ($456.83) where it was like "holy hell, this better work, I don't have that much on me!"
    Total OOP was $286.16!
    I got applause!
    LOL
    As I was leaving the store I had a couple more people ask how much I saved, where I get all my coupons and "can I please see that binder?!"
    I left feeling pretty damn awesome!

    Treat everyone with politeness, even those who are rude to you – not because they are nice, but because you are.

    Oh jeez someone said that to me once.

    I love your brag OP definitely a nice little boost I bet! I hide in a aisle and get everything organized before going to the cash, its easier that way. I'd say almost every single time though I get dirty looks like I'm the most horrid alien creature to walk the face of the earth because gosh forbid I coupon and PM.
