  • About Me

    I'm happily married with 6 fur-babies! (2 dogs and 4 cats and they are all special needs.) My life is dedicated to helping animals in some way or another. I've practically made a full time job out of couponing. I've been doing this for a little over a year and I'm addicted! It seems to always amaze people how much I'm able to get for very little money so I thought it'd be nice to share! It is very time consuming but worth every penny saved! I also hope to help new couponers get into the game!

Serious Grocery Savings!

Published by couponanimal at 6:03 pm under Uncategorized Edit This

Today was a very good day for grocery savings! I went to Publix and BiLo. Both of these sales are good through tomorrow.

BiLo:

(4)Progresso Soups 9.86 -4.91sale -(2).50/2q doubled =2.91

Total including tax OOP: $15.92; Total savings: $53.75
(It should have been $1 less, but I think one of my internet printed coupons got stuck together. I try to crinkle them as much as possible to avoid that, but it’s hard when you have an entire stack!)

(2)Red Baron Pizzas 11.94 -5.96sale -$1/1q =4.97
(1)Toaster Strudel 2.57 -1.28sale -.35/1q =.94

I was extremely satisfied with both of these trips! I saved so much $ and got a couple of freebies as well. I was also happy that we got fresh fruits, veggies, fruit drinks and lunch meat. Healthy items tend to be the most expensive ones so it’s great when they are on sale!
I’ll be back tomorrow with CVS, DG and WalMart.
