Results Week: Week of 7/7

This week I decided to extend my usual couponing stops and added Target & Giant Eagle to the list!  I enjoyed getting different things again this week, mainly household items instead of hygiene.  Later this week, I will be added a second half onto the My Couponing Journey Page.  It will be my Back-To-School Results.  Sadly, I don't live near the main office supplies stores, so Friday when I need to go to the area of other reasons, I will stop in and get them.  Stay tuned for my results at the end of the week then!  Back to these results, Target was great with the text coupons offer FRESH to 82738.  They are great.  Rite Aid was a great week and sadly CVS was a bad week for me.  Everything I wanted was not on the shelves.  Maybe next week I will have a better week there!

Results Week: Week of 7/7-7/13
You Saved How Much

Couponing Tip:  Be a proud couponer!! Many couponers that start are hate the cliche that comes with coupons.  Many hate to carry their binders or coupon folders into the store, hate making people wait in line while their coupons are scanned.  My advice is to be proud, not ashamed or embarrassed. If you need, please tell the person behind you that you may take awhile in line, maybe give them an extra coupon or two for an item they have for the wait.  There is nothing to be ashamed about to be saving money!  Who cares if you have binder?!  Carrying a binder in a store is alot better than what some people wear to Walmart!  You seen the facebook posts, so you know what I mean!
