My First Coupon Crazy Experience

Well I first must give a shout out to Stephanie Lankford who gave me all of this great advise. So, I have always been one to pinch my pennies, and even now during this economy, I have been pinching even more. So, I started visiting these blogs: thecentisblemama.com, thecentisblesawyer.blogspot.com, and crazycouponmon.blogspot.com. These are ladies that show you the best deals at grocery and drug stores and how to utilize coupons to get the most for your money. Now if I have another price along with the total and I sho a different price it means that that particual item was on sale, or at different stores it may cost such and such price. So, with that said, here is my first coupon crazy experience.
