Hey Local Folks! 8/11


Today is 10% off day at the local Five Star groc shop! Did you remember to clip your coupon from last Wednesday's Market Newspaper? This coupon will save you 10% up to $3.00. Not a bad savings for a little piece of scrap paper.

Also, The Market comes out every Wednesday. If you don't get this FREE paper in your mailbox, be sure to pick one up at any of the local gas stations.

Here's a tip: They go quick!

Wondering how Cheapo did with 10% off?

Total: $57.68 - $18.88 coupons = $38.80

So, there you have it!! Want to see how I worked yesterday's coupons? Try it for yourself! You'll be amazed at how much you can save each on groceries.

So far this week, I have saved $30.43 JUST by clipping coupons and matching them up with sale items!!!
