Our very first (totally disorganized) couponing trip at Target

Ok... So there is a huge billboard by Kenny's work that advertises for the Sunday Austin Statesman, and all its coupons. Not sure if you have been sucked in yet to one of those crazy couponing shows yet? If you have than you know how these people are super intense and get a million dollars worth of food for 10 bucks.

Well im not one of them... yet ;)

This Sunday Kenny picked me up a copy of the Statesman and well let me tell you I found tons of coupons inside! So last night I clipped and today I printed off matching coupons on http://www.target.com/. Kenny met me there with Shep and we shopped.
Ah my heart was beating so fast! Every time Kenny mentioned a coupon I felt as if he was disclosing some secret plan to rob the store. In the end I was blessed to have a very patient, kind and understanding cashier. And after all was said and done this is the result.

1 Tide HE (96 Loads), 1 Downy HE (150 Loads), 2 Nature Valley Granola Bars, Cake Mix & Icing, Another Cake Mix, 2 Toaster Strudels, Oral B Floss, Crest, Colgate, Viva Paper Towel, Cookie Mix, 2 packs of Trident, 2 Dove Bars, Some fruit, 3 Pillsbury Crescent Rolls, Yeast & Kleenex.
