Watch me work it, again.

Ok, I was finally going to post some NYC pictures today, but then something better came up!  Well, not better than NYC, but a better post than the NYC one would have been.  Pinky swear.

Remember last winter and spring when I was coupon crazy and I posted about a few of my deals?  Well, if you don’t remember, I did.  Trust me.  And, a lot of you were inspired and said you wanted to start couponing too!  So, did you?  Well, did you?

If you didn’t, let me inspire you again.  Ok?

How much would you pay for that?  Any guesses?  That’s 6 tubs of butter, 3 boxes of Bakin’ Miracle (like Shake N’ Bake), one package of frozen vegetables, and one tube of Nivea chapstick.

Before I go any further, yes, I realize that’s a lot of butter.  I even got a couple questions from a lady standing by me in the check-out.  She asked me if it was on sale, but the look on her face was more like “What’s that skinny bitch doing with all that butter?”  The butter is for us, and it will probably last 6+ months.  One of the keys to couponing is “stock-piling” when items are at rock bottom prices.

Speaking of rock bottom prices…how much did I pay for all that?  46 cents!  Yes people, 46 cents for all of it!

Not inspired?  Ok, well I thought I’d try.  Move along, show’s over, nothing to see here.

Crazy!!! I would feel like I was getting a great deal if I paid 0.46 for just the chap stick. How did you do it?!?!?

That is really a lot of butter though.

My mom and sister are also big on coupon-ing. My mom has actually been PAID to purchase things. Yes, you heard that right, PAID, as in she got it all for free then they gave her $ back!!! I'll be getting into it too once I have time to actually do our grocery shopping!
