Learned something new this week... don't EVER do your shopping list the morning of your trip, it mucked me up a bit this week. :( I usually make my list and gather the coupons for each of the stores ahead of time, throughout the week. This week was hectic, so I did it first thing this morning... at like 5:45 AM... not a good idea. LOL Some of my coupons were for the wrong item, wrong size, ya, needless to say this week wasn't as good as some. Here's the coupon items / deals I got by store:

And this was where I discovered the first of my brain cramps, forgot the coupon for DD's juiceboxes, so paid full for them. Ugh! Also did diapers, wipes, the new All You mag, and a few other non-sale items. Only really saved $2 for the day here. :(

This was my next major brain cramp of the day. Had a coupon for the Wishbone, wrong size. Had couons for the Tyson Chicken, wrong one. Had a coupon for Bounty Basic 8 roll paper towels that were on sale for $3.99, I would have gotten them for $1.99 and they were out. :( They did offer to raincheck for me but my coupon expired today so I declined. Oh, almost forgot, I had a coupon for $1/2 Booth Bros milk and was all excited and neither PC or GU carry Booth Bros. Huh? Have to say I was a little shocked by this. Also had to get beer for hubby, so almost $14 of this total bill is that.
Well, that's it for this week. Hopefully next week I'll get my ducks in a row a little sooner in the week and plan a little better.
