I haven't posted for a few days and I feel bad for not keeping up with a daily post. I have been distracted with some fantastic happenings in my life. The most exciting is I received a job offer. I say "job offer" because not all the details have been worked out and therefore I don't consider myself fully employed. I'm hoping that by mid-week I can announce new job, here's to hoping.
So back to coupons . . . I have been working hard at my savings and have been rather successful in my shopping purchases. I even started a small stockpile in my storage closet to house the incredible deals I scored like Hunt's canned, diced tomatoes (100% natural, of course) for $.19 a can. Pretty AWESOME!
I have spent the morning planing out my next weeks purchases over a few cups of coffee. It looks like the big deals will be at the pharmacies; Rite aid, CVS and Walgreens. I've been reading blogs and mapping out my transactions to maximize my savings. I'll be sure to post about my purchases when I return from the stores.
My biggest couponing dilemma is Harris Teeter. I love Harris Teeter and I have manged to stick to my rule of only buying items if they are on sale, I have a coupon or both. The problem is that I can't seem to break the 30% savings rate. At every other store I'm saving at least 50%, if not 60 or 80%. I need to plan my trips better and look for more ways to save on high priced items, such as beer. Attention beer makers, please send me coupons. Although I appreciate your sales, it's not saving me enough money.
