I kid you not...

How much did I pay for these items? I wish I could wait for your guesses, but I'll take your "ooh's and aww's" instead! Before coupons this would've cost me $22.09. Ready for this?
After my coupons, I spent 21 Pennies. I kid you not!!!
I had a total of $8.50 in catalina coupons* from a previous order as well as a coupon for every item shown, except the M&M's**. I tagged those on at the end so I could get my subtotal over $3.50 to use my last catalina. (That cat actually deducted some of the tax, too, which called for an override). I also used 3 "double your value" coupons. The toothpastes were on clearance (cha-ching) and it seems like Finish puts out a high value coupon every 6 months. It keeps me stocked up, indeed!

* A Catalina is a coupon that prints at the register after you are done paying. Some times it’s a coupon and sometimes a gift certificate that is used like cash on your next purchase. In my case it was the latter. ~Athriftymom.com

Um, you're weird...

Just kidding. I bow down before you and hail your greatness. I feel like I'm doing awesome just for remembering my grocery list and resisting some unnecessary clothing item. Seriously, I set a pair of cute little toddler jeans back on that rack, and I'm like, "Go me."

You had not asked me already. I use a TBS oxyclean when the load is really dirty- a perfect example would be when we all had the flu, I was doing so much laundry like it was going out of style.
I haven't heard that about the fading. I have not noticed any color fading in our cloths.

OH yeah, and you are for sure covered when it comes to dish washing detergent! That is so amazing! You work those coupons!! :)
