Harris Teeter

This is a grocery store that I don't normally shop in because it doesn't have the best prices. However, periodically it has double and triple coupon weeks. It will double or triple coupons up to $1.98. This week was a double coupon week. My strategy is to bring in all my coupons $1 and up and match them up with things that are on sale for close to the double amount so they will be free. My favorite coupons are the $1.75 off because then I get $3.50 off! I got a bunch of items for free today. I'm only writing my post because I was so happy with my savings. Here's the break down:

Total before coupons: $121.01
Total after coupons: $39.29
That's $81.72 savings!

Normally when the cashier says, "Thank you, you saved $30 today," I think, "Yeah that sounds right." But today, I actually said out loud, "Wow!" I can't wait until triple coupon week!

Grandma and I really enjoyed seeing your pictures. Macy is getting cuter all the time. We always look forward to checking out your blog. It looks like you are a very good coupon shopper.

Earlier in the year we went to Madame Tussaud's in Hollywood with one of the local senior center excursions. Grandma also got her picture with George Clooney. The Hollywood museum only has the President and not Mrs. Obama. We really enjoyed our trip also.
