No more buying diapers or formula brag!! Goal reached thanks to stacking&sales stalki

[shmeelady]

Two months ago I made it my personal goal to fill my son's closet with formula, diapers and wipes.

Up until now I have just been picking up things every couple months, but I decided that with winter coming and school starting soon it would be better for me to just have everything I needed to not have to worry about it anymore!! Well today I hit that goal!!

I started the day with my final shop, I pre - ordered everything that is pictured. BUT unfortunately half of my pre - order didn't come in So I was only able to get half of the formula I originally wanted. BUT that is okay!! Because I still have enough to last my son until he is about 13 months!!


Total before coupons = $862.10
Coupons Used = $824.46
Total Spent = $41.75 ** $4.11 was taxes!**



I organized everything, and this is now what my son's closet looks like!!!
There is a breakdown underneath the photo along with my total savings... etc. etc.



On the top I have various lotions, soaps, shampoo's, powders etc.
3 Similac ready to feed 6 packs
2 Similac ready to feed nursers
11 tubs of wipes
3 travel wipes
3 wipe refill bags
1 Little Swimmers
40 jumbo packs diapers
1 mega pack diapers
3 boxes of pampers
3 mega packs easy ups
12 Similac Sensitive
8 cases pediasure (6x 4packs in each case)

Retail value of his ENTIRE closet (with the exception of the lotions, etc... I didn't bother to count what I have packed up there) is *roughly* a whopping $1,610.78

But thanks to couponing/stacking/sales stalking and a LOT of hard work, I paid a FANTASTIC $62.80!!!

That is a savings of $1,547.98

The best part is that my son is already 8 months old, so I won't have to buy anything ever again!!

I could post the picture of the Clean & Clear you helped me get. And, the Heinz Beans too...... but I can't stack.... so it would not even compare to this brag!!!

I just showed my hubby and he said "why can't you stack here? That's AWESOME"

Way to go!!! Must feel great to have those items crossed off your shopping list!!

Feels SO great. Formula & diapers is a huge expense and now that it is all taken care of I can focus on other things. Like coming up with my $3,010 for my textbooks. I thought my student loan was going to cover them this year but NOPE. Darn

That is some great planning - way to go!
