#coupons strike again!

This time I was on my own.

The wife set em up, and I knocked them down.

The mission was home supplies.  Toilet paper, soaps, deodorants and our new favorite, toothpaste.

We ended up with 106 items, and we shouldn't have any needs for deodorant or toilet paper for a year... an what's left will be donated to Operation Breakthrough.

I've bought in, but it can be time consuming,

Check out took some time as we tried to get everyone on board.  When we finally were on the same sheet of music, check out went smooth and I was out of there.  It's not one of our monster runs, but we had some things with the boy come up that didn't allow us to spend too much time on couponing this week.

Until next time!

Miss #Coupon strikes again

So the wife scripted up another outing.  Here's the highlights.
  • When I got home from work to go to the store, we still had to cut, sort and match coupons for 3 hours.
  • We hit the store around 8pm.
  • By the time we unloaded and went to bed, it was 2:30am.
  • I had to park outside since my half of the garage was covered for 3 days.
  • I had to buy two shelves, rearrange our basement and become a stock boy to fit everything in our basement so I could park in the garage over the weekend.
  • We could have had more items had we had the energy and didn't have to pick up the kids from the family that sat them while we went out.
  • We need to narrow our focus on items.
  • Operation Breakthrough Rose Brooks will be happy campers.
