Jamie, my boyfriend (who says he doesnt want anything to do with couponing, but really gets into it when we go) and I took a trip to Shaw's after work today. We didn't plan it out, but had looked at the flyer so we had a good idea of what we wanted. We set a budget of $50. We ended up getting way more than we thought we would be able to (we did go over budget by a little, but it was still with-in the over-budget, budget LOL). I still get a little anxious when we go. We have always been generic buyers. So, to go shopping and load the cart with name-brand items is very stressful to me. It all seems to work out in the end, so far anyway!!!
I alway's wonder with the coupons if you are really getting what you need or just a bunch of extra tissues. toothpaste, deoderants and stuff like that, that will sit around for awhile...I havn't figured it all out yet. But looks like you did well!
those pancakes are great! Emily loooves them! did you get any pasta and sauce?
