Coupons

I have struggled with couponing for a few years now, BUT I am determined to figure this out. I got encouraged again when I saw a post on them on another blog. SOOO I started it up again. I ordered the Sunday paper and I joined a site called www.thegrocerygame.com. The grocery game website has a 4 week free trial and it tells you all of the items that will be on sale that week at the store you pick so you'll know what coupons you can use. I've learned that you want to buy the products on sale and use your coupon at the same time so you get the best deal. Items rotate when they go on sale about every 8 to 12 weeks or so. This weekend I went to Ralphs and I bought $246 worth of groceries for $129. I saved $113. I felt so good walking out of that store. I hope to do as well next week. I'll keep you updated.
