And The Winner Is....

Laurie Wendell who said Spent $52.50 Saved $102.71!  Congratulations Laurie! 

For all the inquiring minds out there, this was not one of my incredible spent $18 saved $105 shopping trips.  It was an ordinary trip to the grocery store for my family.  The original total was $173.20 and after coupons it was $93.82.  So, I spent $93.82 and saved $80.23. Thats 64 items at less than $1.50 per item!  Not the best trip I have ever made but not bad for a quick run to Smiths!!  Remember, with just a few minutes of organizing some coupons you can cut your grocery bill in half!

Giveaway Hint!! Be sure to read the list of items purchased....

Be sure to check out the detailed list of items purchased, some of the bigger value and greater quantity items are in BOLD!

Good Luck!

A Quick Giveaway! Pick Another CHECKOUT LANE, honey! Paperback Book!

I know how badly everyone wanted to win my last Krazy Coupon Lady Book Giveaway.  So, I thought that after such a long time away from my blog I would start off with another one!  This will be a quick one so don't wait to post your answer, the winner will be chosen by Friday, October 8th at 5p.m. PST.  Here is what you need to do to win:

1. Post a comment on my blog telling me how much you think I spent and how much you think I saved on my recent trip to the Grocery Store!  (all comments go to moderation for preview before they post, so don't worry if you don't see them immediately, they will post once I read them.)

2.  Send me an e-mail with your e-mail address so that I may contact you if you are the winner.  This step is very important; especially if you are the winner!

I Love Shop and Tell!  It is a great, fun way to stay motivated to save every time you shop! I play this game with my kids and they love to guess how much we spent/saved! Attached is a picture and a list of what I purchased.  The person the closest, without going over, to the actual receipt total will be the winner.  If more than one person guesses correctly, the first person to answer will be the winner!   Good Luck!

Here is the list of what I purchased:
