Couponing

I have really gotten into using Internet coupons the last month. It's amazing how much money you can save by matching up grocery store ads and manufacturer coupons. In my area, I have found that Kroger provides the most savings. Kroger doubles coupons up to 50 cents. For example, if you have a $0.30 coupon, it doubles to $0.60 and if you have a $0.50 coupon, it doubles to $1.00 Using coupons with products already on sale even allows for FREE products! Wow! I have been getting 4-pack cottonelle toilet paper free for the past few weeks. I found this link in January and it was reset in February. You should be able to print two $0.50 coupons. Kroger sells cottonelle for $0.99; so if you use the coupon, it will double and make the toilet paper free. Here is the link: http://www.cottonelle.com/coupons.aspx Since I work full-time and almost always over 40 hours a week, I do most of my matching of coupons during my lunch. It is actually quite fun, at least for me. And, when my husband goes to the grocery store with me, he gets a huge kick out of my deals. I have got free dog food at Wal-mart last week. And you would wonder, why in the world would I want free dog food because I don't have a dog!!?! Well, we gave it to Jason's mom and dad's dog. If I see something free, I get it. I plan on donating anything above and beyond what we don't use. I know the food banks could use extra food, etc. since so many people are out of work right now.
