I have been couponing for the past 20 yrs and must say, i do rather well. I always save at least 60-75 percent of my total bill by using coupons. I also get items that I will be getting for free that we dont use and donate them to the local shelter and food bank. Coupons are a wonderful thing if you use them right. We have a stock pile of the foods we use most so there is no special trips to the store to get something we ran out of. Keep up the good work. It really does pay off in the long run.
