Clippin Q's

I've started getting back into clipping coupons these past three weeks. Ive made two purchases so far at Meijer with coupons and sale items. The first week I spent $37 and saved $25! That did include some produce and items that were not on sale or with coupons...
And yesterday I spent $52 and saved $49!! This purchase however was all items were on sale AND with a coupon! And of course its all things that we are going to use. I decided to take a pic of my buys tonight and price the items out. So for others that are thinking about it.. here is what I bought and saved $49 off at Meijer yesterday! Plus I received two coupons at the check out for my next order.. $3.00 off and $1.50 off my next shopping order! Ill add that $4.50 in savings on to the next weeks savings. ;)

Okay, so maybe not like the 75-90% off that the Extreme Couponers can do.. But I think thats pretty darn good for my 2nd week. :) And I've started a FaceBook group for the Jackson area, to get excited about couponing, Clippin Q's!! We've got some veteran couponers in there and really excited to see we are 20 people strong!
