My best deal yet....

I have been saving up coupons for the last several months. I have 5 copies of the Hearld Journal delivered on Sunday so I have 5 of each coupon. Well yesterday was a great pay off to all the coupon maddness. Karen and I left for Logan at 5:30am. Albertsons was allready packed when we got there just after 6. Some of the items we wanted were already gone.

Here is my list

8 lotions
14 progresso soups
4 ragu
8 knorr sides
8 onion soup mix

We stood in line to check out for 1 hour. It was like the day after Thanksgiving.

By 9am we were in mom's car headed for Layton for our annual birthday shopping trip. It was so much fun to hang out with my mom and sister. I used my birthday money to get me a new shirt and shoes for the upcoming wedding.

The great end to a great day was coming home to a clean house. My wonderful husband had done the dishes and cleaned up. The twins were in bed sleeping, and I was able to spend a few hours organizing and putting all my stuff away.
