September wasn’t a bad month for me as far as couponing goes. Here’s a quick breakdown of how much I saved:
Walgreens $45.22
Haircut $3.00
Shop N Save $22.05
Gas $2.51
Jiffy Lube $20.00
Off The Grill $2.00
That’s a total of $94.78 for September and brings my yearly total to $808.42.
The Jiffy Lube early bird special really helped out this month, and I was surprised I did more at Walgreens than the grocery store this time. But, I have started counting Walgreens savings from sales – not just my coupons – because a lot of the savings from sales combined with my coupons really drives the price down.
I don’t know if I’m going to reach my goal of $1200 by year end. Even if I average $100 per month in savings for the next three months, I’m still $100 short. But there will be extra shopping to do for Thanksgiving so that should help out a bit.
