Hubby's impressed :)

Decided to stop by SDM today to pick up some items and redeem some points. I bought:

Bounty $5.99
Flour $4.99
Sugar $2.49
4 Boxes of tissue $2.36
Oatmeal $1.99
Cheerios $1.99
Compost bags $4.99
2 International Delight cream $1.99
Arm & Hammer Spinbrush $11.99 (ridiculous price - Target sells these for $6.99)
Eggs $1.99
3 Cases of water $4.00

Total came to $55.13 and I redeemed 25,000 points so OOP $5.13.

I also earned 2860 points today.

When I came home, hubby says "wow" you got all this for $50? I said no I got all this for $5.13 and I didn't even use any coupons! It felt so good to be able to come home with lots of stuff for so little.

That's fantastic! Always nice when your hubby is impressed by your shopping :)

I remember when I first started couponing (and using Optimum points) my DH would be floored when I came home with stuff!!
Now all I hear is "Uh huh..."!!
Not that he doesn't care, he's just used to it.
We should all trick them sometime and say, "Look honey, I spent $439.00 on this!" just to see what the reaction would be!! lol
:)

Congrats on the great shop! Don't you just LOVE Shoppers Drug Mart?! ;)
