Saving Big on a Little Groceries - an Unsexy Brag (with video!)

[JacobandJenelle]

Hey everyone, Jenelle and I decided to embark on a great "unsexy" couponing adventure and see how well we could do. Weve been accumulating some coupons for a couple weeks now to try this out and we were overall pretty pleased!

Our trip occured at two stores today: Wal Mart, and Save On Foods. All stacking that is mentioned in the video was done at Save On Foods. Our savings today managed to bring down a huge $201.53 grocery bill to $124.58 ($76.95 in coupon savings). Thats a total of 38% savings! Not bad considering not everything here had a coupon; it was simply a normal shopping trip, taking advantage of coupons that we have recently accumulated.

The percentage never seems to be as impressive as the "sexy" brags, but in hind site its actually a lot! Near 40% savings on groceries is crazy, and with the amount of stuff we bought, it will last us near a 2-3 weeks. During that time period we can build up some more coupons for another grocery trip. We feel like its especially rewarding to save money on groceries using coupons because, well its much harder to do i suppose. As well as groceries are a bare necessity that we all need to live!

Anyways hope you all enjoy the brag. Feel free to comment, rate and subscribe. Let us know what you think

Happy Couponing!

some of them were from cereal boxes, as you mentioned. Some of them recently came from the Kraft Package that they had on a month or so ago where they sent out a big box of new stuff. It came with some of the FPCs used in this video. The $5 Chapmans (might as well be an FPC) was from emailing them. You can get it once a year! Hope this helps
