My first deal included 7 boxes of cereal, 8 boxes of granola bars (Nature Valley and Fiber One bars) 3 boxes of popcorn, 2 boxes of Fruit snacks, and a bag of Snyders pretzel pieces. My total savings on this trip was $56.84 and my out-of-pocket expense was $14.45.

I'm addicted
Okay, so I might be a nerd for this post, but I am totally addicted to bargain shopping! My friend Kim kind of got me started on it and it's just gone crazy recently. I'm not as good as she is yet, but I have done okay for myself. I guess it's a good addiction to have, better than gambling, that's for sure. So I just thought I would post a few of my recent bargains.
My first deal included 7 boxes of cereal, 8 boxes of granola bars (Nature Valley and Fiber One bars) 3 boxes of popcorn, 2 boxes of Fruit snacks, and a bag of Snyders pretzel pieces. My total savings on this trip was $56.84 and my out-of-pocket expense was $14.45.
My next deal included 6 boxes of Fiber One bars, 2 boxes of cereal, 2 boxes of popcorn and 2 things of eyeshadow from Max factor. My total savings on that trip was $37.30 and my out-of-pocket expense was $1.85, yes, that's a dollar and eighty five cents.
Tonight I made a quick trip to CVS and it was a very small purchase, but I got some deodorant, toothpaste, a toothbrush and some stencils and it cost me .47 cents and I got$12 back in extra bucks to use for my next trip. Not bad, huh?

Okay, you cannot write a post like that and then not share your secrets! Come on, friend, let us in on the magic! Great job!
Please do tell what is your secret? Bargain hunting is one of my favorite things but I haven't really done it for food yet...more yard sale stuff. Today we got an office chair, a sand and water table for Addie, 4 nice pillows for our couch and a movie for $14.
Hey- this is Valerie (Reynolds)Bauer- I really would love to know your secrets- Please! Yeah

ummm helloo! How are you doing that! I could use a good break on food! I don't have much storage, but prices like that I'd create some!
