I Will Single Handedly End the Recession - May 28

[Patty Smyth]

I really feel like I have been lucky this week and although I'm not a super stacker or a freebie queen I am really pleased with the stuff I got this week. My friend Mafia Momma and I were just talking about how we are developing coupon radar. They seem to be everywhere now. LOL I swear I must have walked by them before oblivious to their potential. What a difference a few months at SC makes.

Being a thrifty shopper is a skill you hone over time! I'm no "superdupersaver" myself, but I've found that you do get to know where to get the best prices simply by paying attention to what the usual prices are. Now that you have coupons on your radar, I bet you will discover your "deal radar" improves over time too!

Just remember, it's not a deal 'cause you got it cheap, it's a deal 'cause you got something you will use, cheaper!

Let me tell you something, when she comes in my room at 11:30 at night, which is almost every night , and says I'm hungry, I hand her one of those and send her on her way. I usually buy them by the case at Costco but I'm trying to cut out Costco, you end up buying too much and things are tempting because they have stuff you can't find elsewhere.

nice haul

Nice deals, I have cut Costco as well I can't afford the 500-600 shopping trips!! And then still have to go and buy stuff from Safeway or RCSS because I needed a smaller amount than Costco sells. They have an liquidation store here that stocks Costco items so I can get my fix there without paying the membership fee.

Great shopping trip! Gotta go pick up my Dove soap tomorrow I forgot to add it to my list today.

[Wishbonelove]

Great deals Patty! I find that the kid's snacks are expensive to buy at regular price, so it's always good to get them for a price like that!! I bet you have a well stocked pantry.
