If you watch closely, you will find a lot of things that end up being
FREE after using the coupon. Peanut butter, bread, jelly, salad
dressings, and sometimes hotdogs come to mind, especially when your
store doubles coupons. I pay close attention to items that are on
special at the store & I have a coupon. I’m not really great at it,
but my usual weekly savings is $10+. I realize that’s not a hugh
amount of money, but my grocery bill is always under $60 so I can be
happy with more than 15% savings.
