I spent 34.00 saved about 200 dollars at Fry's!

This the grocery trip I'm mostly proud of. I'm happy to say I'm a extreme couponer!! I would love to show you how I did it. I'm not sure I will show you all of my secrets, but I do get the Sunday Paper, and my Mother In Law gives me her coupons. I do print coupons off the internet, I also sign up for bunch of samples and get coupons from that.

Fresh and Easy Rules- so remember this! Spend 50 or more get 10dollars off Spend 30 or more get 3 dollars off Also remember the limits on the Safeway coupons Along with any limits on Fry's products. When there are limits you have to seperate orders if you get more than the limit.

This took about 3 day prep time for, include coupon cutting, printing, planning and calculating and scanning the ads. Now with this shopping experience note that Fry's is taking other grocery stores coupons. I happen to get a 10dollar coupon, and a 3 dollar coupon from Fresh and Easy. So added savings!

Alright let me get on with the show! :D This how my grocery list looks like, okay mostly I had to be more descriptive for you guys to understand.

NOTE: Fry's is doubling their coupons up to a 1.00 each.

Acronyms:

SWPC- Safeway Price Coupon
FSP- Fry's Sale Price
FE- Fresh and Easy
FC- Fry's coupon

Instead of taking 10.00 off the hotdogs because I already got 2 of them FREE.

She took 4.00 dollars off each hotdog making it 16.00 Surprising! Extra 6.00 dollars

NOTE: They do not include the savings you get when use the Safeway and Fresh Easy Coupons in the Savings Total, because the count those as refunds not coupons.
