Today I saved $35.30 in coupons. I shopped the sales at CVS, Walgreens, and Hancock Fabrics. My greatest savings were at CVS on grocery items.
My updated coupons savings for this year is:
$12.44 + 35.30 = $47.74
I hope I can keep this up all year. I want to see how much I am saving by using coupons this year.
As for the $1.00 savings challenge I may discontinue it because I primarily use my debit card and do not carry any cash.
