Notes
*These aren't particularly great prices for Egglands Eggs and Coconut Milk, but I needed them - so I paid what I had to! Thankfully I had coupons to off-set the non-sale price a little bit! :-) But they do skew my figures slightly. If I didn't factor those items in and only got the on-sale with coupon items, the sale value of what I bought would have been $33.58, and after coupons I would have spent $8.44 or 75% savings.

A commonly asked question is: "Sure, you saved all that money - but how long did it take you to get all of that organized?" Well, honestly - this morning I spent about 5 minutes before I left (because my coupons were already clipped and sorted in my binder) and I spent about 35 minutes in the store. I had to go grocery shopping anyway - so the 5 extra minutes I spent this morning saved me about $38.50!

Also, I did buy other things not pictured/itemized - but they weren't on sale and/or I didn't have a coupon for them (fresh produce, meat, etc.). But, since my ticket totaled more than $50 before coupons, I was also able to use a competitor coupon that is in the Citypass book for $12 off of a $50 or more ticket. So, when all was said and done - I paid a total of $42.17 (with tax) for $104.55 worth of groceries!
