This week I was so excited to go grocery shopping that I actually took all 4 kids with me. Crazy, I know! But my grocery store had Quaker products on sale for $2 each, which made my oatmeal free after my $1 coupons were doubled! But wait, it gets better! The store's flyer had a coupon for $3 off the purchase of any 5 Quaker products! I patiently waited until double coupon day, but I just didn't want to wait until after dinner to go shopping!
I must have been quite a sight! I had F in the infant carseat sitting in the main basket of the cart. M and G started out riding in the attached "car" in front of the cart, though it quickly became a game for M, G, and H to take turns getting in and out of the car. The bag with my coupon book was in the little seat in the back of the cart. After a few minutes, the girls shed their coats, which I piled on top of the "car". Where were the groceries going to go?

I was able to buy milk and plain yogurt to make more homemade yogurt, powdered chocolate mix to make more homemade hot chocolate, and black beans to make black bean soup. I got 9 boxes of oatmeal, 2 boxes of Oatmeal to Go, and 4 bottles of syrup for free, and the Activia yogurt was free as well! Gotta love double coupon day!!

"i commend you for all the couponing that you do. it amazes me. I don't have the patience for that... or to figure it all out! "
Not everyone does, I know! But it is fun once you get the hang of it! I encourage everyone to pick one store and just TRY. Hey, everyone wants to save money somehow these days! :-)
