Since I have decided to make an honest effort to put my top match up's from each store on my blog, I just wanted to say a few things about coupon shopping. Coupons can be fun but you could become easily burnt out by all the weekend trips here and there trying to grab all those deals.

I know I can do better with coupons. I could probably end up saving 80% most of the time, but honestly it is too time consuming. When I was saving the maximum amount I was spending at least two hours a day going between sales papers and coupons and then working major math magic to make sure I was doing everything the right way. I have more time than most...I have no children to take care of so my evenings are what I want them to be, but for most people that is just not the case. I still save a ton of money at least 60% each time I shop, but I spend a lot less time working on my deals. I find that is my happy medium and sometimes I save more. Right now I have cut out all my drug store shops because I am so stocked with shampoo, body wash, deodorant, toothpaste and all those other personal care items that there is no need to spend time tying to get something I have 20 of...LOL Stocking is good, and it also allows you to take a break for awhile. Now I am just grocery shopping and that is good! I have three deep freezers, a large walk in pantry and a bedroom dedicated to stocking so I don't feel the pressure to hit the grocery store if I don't feel like it. Trust me no one here is starving!!! My main advice to everyone is to start slow and be satisfied with the money you save. Every trip is not yield a great saving event, but who can complain about 60%?

I just want everyone to realize that. So I will post the deals that I would personally run after and a few other good ones :) And that is what you will find here. I am not going to post the whole ad, just because something is in the ad doesn't mean its a good deal! Good deals are all you will see. Enjoy :)
