Couponing....again.

I couldn't resist. Had to try couponing again.
The Krogers store in our little town does not do double coupons. There is a Krogers about 30 minutes away that does! Last time I was there, I wound up trying to do too many, and after getting extremely frustrated, wound up spending more than I was comfortable with. At that time, I decided I was "Never Going Back!"
We had another engagment right by that Krogers so....
IDEA!!!
I know, there are times that those are fatal.
I grabbed about 20 $1.00 off coupons and while we were there, did a quick pit stop.
It was fairly succesful! Handed the kids a few coupons, sent them in search of those products, and I did the same. We were in and out of there in 20 minutes.
WOOT-WOOT!!!
Run down of savings:

                                                                   SAVED  = $52.25

Oh Yeah Baby! That's more like it!
I think food is harder to save on than stuff at a pharmacy, so, I believe I did pretty good! 
 This was the smoothest transaction I have ever made while couponing. 
Short and sweet is apparently better!
Make sure to check coupon policies before you go to stores...
All these coupons I picked up off Coupons.com
