My new addiction

I'm getting SOO into couponing! I'm really starting to get the hang of it so it's not so time consuming AND I'm getting better deals. Thanks to Jenny's help!

I'm so into it that when it's an item we use A LOT I buy extra coupons on Ebay. How crazy am I?! Example: Mike loves gum. He especially likes the Dentyne canisters because the fit into a cupholder in the car and are easily accessed. They are around $3 each though, that gets expensive. So, last week, they were B1G1 at Publix. I bought 20 $1/off coupons on Ebay for 1.43 inc shipping Which enabled me to buy 20 canisters of gum for $4.23 including the cost of coupons!!!

Then, Harris Teeter ran Super Doubles last week, meaning every coupon up to 1.98 was doubled. I don't shop there unless it's super doubles because they are SO expensive, but I went twice this week and was SUPER happy with the results...

Trip #1 (they limit you to 20 coupons a day)

All for $25.77!!

Trip #2 My best yet.

Grand total... $3.43!!!!! Even with the Bounce bar! :D

I know, I'm lame. It feels so good to do something that helps our family though. I only get things we use. With the exception of those pizza rolls. They were free. Threw em in the freezer for food storage. ;)
