Save your free coupons

Before when I used to receive a free coupon I would get really excited and want to use it on my next shopping trip.

I noticed that I wasn't really saving a lot because once I got into the store I was distracted by other sale items and then it just made me over spend.

My solution to the problem was actually my husbands idea, he suggested that I keep all my "free item" coupons and high priced coupons and wait and make one big shopping trip with them.

"Thanks Hubby"
 That is just what I did today I got myself a cart full of groceries for 36 bucks I saved a total of 54% I thought this was just great!


*Bonus tip*

When shopping and you see groceries with a 50% sticker on it a lot of us turn away and think "yuck it's probably going to expire soon"; but actually most times it is just over stock.
I love finding items with a 50% sticker in it because  it is exactly like having a coupon but you didn't have to waist one of you own!
A lot of the 50% items I do find don't have coupons circulating for them,so it's really nice to see these!
