First "Couponing" Trip!


Today, I went to Harps for the first time because I heard about their double coupon promotion each month. I will be going back this weekend with the rest of my coupons after they restock, but this is what I purchased tonight.  I may not be the most extreme couponer, but I'm pleased with a 50% savings on things we will actually use.

12 packages of vegetable/rice steamers
Retail: $12.96 ($1.08 each)
Coupon: .75/3 doubled to $1.50/3 = $6 saved
Total = $6.96 ($0.58 each)

5 packages of Gardetto's
Retail: $8.40 ($1.68 each)
Coupon: .50/1 doubled to $1/1 = $5 saved
Total = $3.40 ($0.68 each)

2 cans Comet
Retail: $2.26 ($1.18 each)
Coupon: .25/1 doubled to .50/1 = $1 saved
Total: $1.26 ($0.63 each)

2 packages of crutons
Retail: $3.78 ($1.89 each)
Coupon: $1/2 doubled to $2/2 = $2 saved
Total: $1.78 ($0.89 each)


Totals:
Retail: $27.40
Coupon Savings: $14.00
Spent: $13.40
(Taxes not included)
