Couponing

Okay here are my deals from last week. I actually saved the receipts so I could see what I spent and what I saved!!

YOU CAN USE BOTH. I also had 2 $2.00 off of makeup coupons so here is what it looked like

Great week

So this week was even better week. Usually when I use coupons I get from the Sunday paper I have to wait and hold on to for great deals. This week was a great week to start couponing because you could use the coupons on a lot of deals going on this week.
