Kaching $$$$$$$

Today I went grocery shopping and saved a ton a moolah! I forgot to take a picture but I wanted to tell you everything I bought and how much I saved because I was quite proud. Couponing is totally worth every minute put into it. I only went to two stores (usually I do just one but I couldn't pass up some freebies).

Here are the items I bought:
red pepper
2 lb. bag of baby carrots
red grapes
red leaf lettuce
bananas
tomatoes
cucumber
zucchini
5 lbs. of ground beef
5 lbs. of chicken-boneless, skinless
2 dz. eggs
1 gallon of milk
cottage cheese-large container
Betty Crocker Specialty Potatoes x4

Spent: $37.07
Saved: $28.11

3 boxes of pasta-different kinds
18 cans of cream of mushroom/chicken
3 cans of soup
3 tubes of Colgate toothpaste
6 cans of diced tomatoes

Spent: $6.66
Saved: $53.67

Total spent: $43.73
Total saved: $81.78

I couldn't believe it myself but I'll take it! I totally thought I was going to go over "my limit" but I was about $6 under. Yahoo!!!!!! Go me! Go me! Go go go go me!

DANG. I better hit the stores soon this week. Most of the good stuff is probably already gone. Very impressed with your savings! Which stores were you at?
