My new obsession!!

I know a lot of you have been wondering "Where oh where is CorkY??" Life gets so busy sometimes don't you agree? I promise I have a lot of updates still to come, but I had to post my exciting adventures of this past weekend!! This post is pretty NeRdY I realize, but I have to share my knowledge! As many of you now know, I'm a coupon junkie! I've crossed over to the other side!! I've been converted!! And for all you non-believers out there, here is proof, that it really does work!! First I have to give props where props are due!! Melea on www.freebies2deals.com is amazing!! She does all the hard work, so that you don't have to! And I also got some of my deals from www.utahdealdiva.com , www.thekrazycouponlady.com , & the Savvy Shopper link from Freebies2Deals!! The women are awsome!! So now to my biggest deal so far. .. Smith's has this fun event going on from Sunday, May 16 through Tuesday, May 18 where they will round any coupon under $1 up to $1!! Check out my haul:
Before coupons, this was $123.41. After all of my coupons, it was $44.01, but then I got back $5 to use on my next purchase at Smith's, so it was really only $39.01!! Plus I got $.15 fuel rewards!! Is that awsome or what? I saved %76 on this load! Most of these items were free and only 3 items were over $1 after the coupons.
Here is my receipt, pretty crazy! And below is my shopping list and what the price for each came to:
Land O' Lakes spreadable butter with Olive Oil - (4) @ .50 ea
Yoplait Yogurt Cups - (6) @ .27 ea
Yoplait Greek Yogurt Cups - (7) @ FREE!
Betty Crocker Mashed Potatoes - (1) @ FREE!

Covergirl Nail Color - (2) @ 2.77 ea
So there it is! Pretty cool eh? You might be wondering how I decided on how many of each and that just depended on how many coupons of each I had.
Here's my deal from yesterday on Covergirl Makeup from Smith's. My mom and I made out like bandits! This makeup would have normally been $43! But I only paid $7 for it!
And last but definately not least, here's my Target trip with my mom! Paid $6 for this! The razors and Air Wick air fresheners were free!

I will post some family updates later on tonight! Happy couponing ya'll! Check out the sites I posted and if you're not a couponer and want to be, let me know and I'll give ya the 411!

Awesome deals! I was just wondering how you got all that makeup for such a good price?

The CoverGirl makeup is part of the P&G promotion going on at Smiths, so if you buy 4 P&G items, they automatically take off $4 at checkout. So you couple that with some the CoverGirl coupons that came out recently like the $2.50 off of 2 items and the buy one get one free coupons and I also had $1 off of one item coupons. The eyeshadow was $1.24 when you buy 4, so with the $2.50 off of 2, they were almost free. The nail polish was 1.77 when you buy 4, so they came to about .77. Make sense?

I love couponing but I never have the coupons. I have bought some off Ebay before. Do you buy the multiple sunday papers or do you just print ones off the internet?

Welcome to the other side, sista! :) Just don't cut yourself cutting coupons like I have. I went to Smith's today and got my haul. $29 bucks and cart full of stuff! :)
