Oh the Savings!!

My couponer friends be proud....

Today, I was e-mailed the Food Lion weekly saver and saw they were having a big BOGO sale.  I realized that I actually use some of those items (which is what usually keeps me from "couponing" I guess). I also realized I had coupons for some of these items...so I went to work. Here is what I ended up with.

2 boxes of Kraft Macoroni & Cheese: BOGO & $.55 Coupon
2 Jars of Miracle Whip: BOGO & 2 $1.00 off Coupons
5 cans of Del Monte vegis: 5/$5 and $1.00 off Coupon
8 cans Progresso Soup: 10/$10 and 2 $1.00/4 cans coupons
6 tubs cream cheese: BOGO and Buy 5 get $5.00 off coupon
6 things of Kraft Cheese: BOGO and Buy 5 get $5.00 off coupon
2 Hillshire Farms sausages: 2 for $6 and $.75 off coupon
2 bags of carrots: BOGO

Before the cashier took the MVP card and coupons it was $73.15. The total afterward was $24.64.
Total Savings: $48.51

Not bad for my first time, eh? Maybe, my couponer friends could have done better...but I'm pretty happy with the results!
