Extreme Couponing Shopping Trip
I was heading to ShopRite to check the Clear Men’s Shampoo Deal that reader Nate had let us know about. And before I knew it, my shopping list grew as I started pulling out coupons I had printed. This was a pretty sweet shopping trip and cost me under $5 after catalinas and savingstar deposit.
I also had the privilege of meeting a reader, Joseph. He and his wife were shopping away and proudly had his coupon binder sitting on top of his cart. He was taking advantage of some deals and let me know that he is saving 80% on groceries over the past year and a half. Way to go Joseph! And, he emailed me a picture of his shopping trip this morning which is at the bottom of the post.
