Well, I didn’t get to use all of my coupons since some of the items were out of stock however, I used 59 coupons which was a lot of me. And, my cart was full, which never happens.
I had an awesome cashier which made things go a lot smoother. Once I got home I noticed some errors by me and the coupons scanning in. But, hey, it happens. In the end, my savings were awesome for all that I bought.
The final total was $48.52 after coupons, catalinas & savingstar deposit with a savings of over $165! Pretty Sweet!
