Welcome to my blogspot!

The purpose of this site is to share some of the cool deals I find around town. If you're looking to save money as well with coupons, I hope you see something that helps you save bucks too! :)

Recent Total Savings

Just for kicks, I kept my receipts for the past 5 days and here are my totals.  I made a few mistakes with some of my plans before shopping, but I suppose that's how you learn.  My shopping trips included 1 grocery trip to HEB, 1 trip to Target (for all the things I forgot at HEB, lol), 5 transactions at CVS*, and 1 stop for a pair of shoes at Sports Authority.  

Total price including store markdowns before taxes: $248.61
Total including tax after using company and store coupons:  $142.68

Now I know there are folks out there who get way better deals than that, but I don't think it's too bad.  Hopefully the next time I do this I can beat the savings.  

*most CVS transactions were done back to back to utilize their extracare bucks.
