Update: Extreme Couponing

Tomorrow will begin my 2nd week of Extreme Couponing. Now I'm not talking about Extreme like TLC's crazy show. YIKES! Who really needs THAT MUCH stuff!? If I was fortunate enough to get all those items and have a place to store it - i would definitely be donating bunches!

 First Week in Review: I did a couple of deals that were posted online - such as Ivory soap at Walmart for $0.97 and used a coupon for $1.00 off. Walmart's policy is that they apply your overage to the rest of your purchase so that's awesome. My favorite deal though was not as extreme. HEB had a "Buy a Starbucks Frapuccino 4-pack and get the HEB version for Free". Well, I happen to like both brands and also had a $2.00 off coupon when you buy 2 Starbucks Frapuccino 4-pack. So I used 2 of those coupons which was 4 of the Starbucks 4-packs and then got 4 HEB one's for FREE!! YAY!! Retail value on my receipt roughly showed $45 and I only paid $20 :D It was a 60% savings on my receipt. WOOT! Even though it wasn't FREE or the goal of less than a dollar, to me it was amazing because they are both products I used and I feel like I maximized my savings. WOOT! Below are pictures of last Sunday's coupon clipping and also one where Roxie felt the need to "help". LOL!
