Taking a Stab at Couponing

I have been clipping coupons for years. In the past I would only clip brands or products that I liked and used, then would buy that item whenever I needed it. It wasn't until recently when my friend Jessica (http://myquarterlifecrisisjmu.blogspot.com) let me in on the secret of maximizing the coupon experience.

Here was my second shopping trip to Rite Aid on Oct. 27, 2009

I paid $3.02 for these items that I actually use! Retail would have been $18.36 at Rite Aid. I would have paid $2.30 more except the cashier (who was the manager) entered in $4.99 instead of $2.39 for the BOGO Halls coupon. heehee :)

I am hoping that I can stock up on some manly things with coupons so I can make my two brothers a useful and cheap Christmas gift. I will let you know if I succeed.
