My First Couponing Adventure

I was so excited about my first time couponing that I felt the need to share the awesomeness of my experience. The whole idea of couponing is combining manufacturer and store coupons to get the best deals. I cannot take the credit for planning all of this out as I had help from http://thekrazycouponlady.com and my good friend Rachel. Both Rachel and I are new at the couponing business, but she definitely has a better grasp on how to make it all work out. We did four separate transactions to get the best of our money. So here is the run-down of what we did.
Total Before Coupons: $101.36
Total After Coupons: $43.97
Total Rebates: $54.00
Notice that the rebates were more than the total I spent. I actually made money by shopping today. Now I'd say that's one of the coolest jobs ever. All of the purchased items today were from Proctor and Gamble and so we were able to earn a coupon book with $100 worth of coupons to use another day!! Below is a picture of the goodies I got today!
