Nice! Fred Meyers is my favorite. I don't have any of the discount stores near me.

I got the dog food coupons from the Humane Society when we adopted our dog. They finally arrived. It's crappy food so we're mixing it with our good stuff but I'm definately seeing an increase in poop! Yuck.

I've concluded that clerks hate couponers. I had to correct the lady at checkout three times to get the appropriate discount that the coupon stated. It really put her out and she didn't like me very much by the time I left. The first time she rang me up it was going to cost $18. HELLO! We're talkiing free here girlie. The next time it was $7 and then when she finally got it right she enjoyed telling me that I was still going to have to pay tax.

I am an avid coupon user... literally have hundreds of them. Love seeing your shopping adventures. I tend to budget real good and average $50-$70 a week for my family. Still getting into the habit a little bit better, but it is starting to work real well.

Thanks for all the great ideas.

Yes, you have to watch very carefully, they can somehow kinda scan but not actually scan the coupon (some cashiers at Walmart have been caught, using the coupon later for themselves)
I had an experience yesterday on the 6th the cashier scanned two of my coupons the cash register took the money off then she backed them back out or the machine did later and the store would not give me my coupons back , give me cash or give me a receipt. I wrote to the maker of the product that mailed me the coupons we will see but it was $6.00 so I was a bit upset about it. Plus I still don't have a receipt from that transaction because they insisted on keeping it. So far this month we have spent $170 on food but I really have to go all out this week and get some.
So we will be back to report the damage. Love the blog keep up the great work.
