I never really considered myself a coupon-clipping kind of gal. However, in light of my desire to trim a few extra dollars off our grocery bill I decided to give it a try. In my spare time I’ve taken to scouring the internet in search of printable coupons for some of our regularly purchased items.
Today I bought some groceries at Target instead of Walmart or Meijer.
My savings are as follows:
Ghiradelli Chocolate Chips - $2.99
+ $0.75 off coupon = 2.24
10 oz Kashi cereal - $3.74
+ buy one 10 oz cereal get 16 oz ($3.84) free = $3.74
+ $1.00 off any Kashi cereal = 2 boxes of cereal for $2.74
Kashi 8-pouch hot cereal - $2.89
+ $0.50 off coupon = $2.39
= $7.37
($13.46 - $6.09 = $7.37)
I was pretty impressed. It took me a grand total of ten minutes to find the coupons online that I was looking for and it saved me $6.
Thank you, Target!
So if any of you out there are trying to save a buck, start surfing the ‘Net and give it a shot!
Anybody have any good money-saving or budget-cutting tips to share?
