Saved 105% on Groceries....WOW!!!!

Hey bloggers!!!  Had a good experience at the grocery today.  Started going every week again to save more money.  My goal is by the end of Sept to have my grocery bill cut in HALF.....that's right HALF in ONE month!!  I told you last week my bi-weekly budget was $200 and I spent approx $150.  That meant I had $50 to spend today.....yeah I went a little over but my pantry is more full now then it's been in quite a while.  Starting next week my budget is going to be divided out weekly to $100 but I am going to try and cut back a little each week so by the end of Sept I am down to a weekly budget of $50.  Now back to today....before tax, coupons, and sale prices I spent $109.99.  Then you take away coupons, bonus savings on coupons, and in store ads I spent $53.45 and SAVED $56.54!!!  WHOOOOO HOOOOO!!!!!  I actually saved more than I spent and my frig and pantry are full!!!  The buy of the week for me was Johnsonville Italian sausages were on sale from $4.99 to $3.99 and I had 2 $1.00 coupons which made them $2.99 ea but the kicker was when I went to purchase them on the package was a coupon that if you bought 2 you got a package of the breakfast sausages FREE....that was a extra value of $2.99.  What an unexpected bonus because the Italian Sausages were already on my shopping list!!!  Also Dial handsoap that regularly sells for $1.76 and was on sale for .88 cents....on top of that I had a .35 cent coupon that doubled so my final price was .18 cents each.  Now that's a pretty darn good deal.  Well I hope this helps someone else save because it's so fun for me and I know it can be fun for your too.  Feel free to leave a comment or share tips!
