What does a Quick Trip to the Grocery Store Cost You?

I thought I would share my quick run to Homeland today with my readers.  After watching the TLC Show Extreme Couponing, I thought some people may feel using coupons is overwhelming and requires long hours of work.  Not so!
I used Deal Detecting Diva's coupon match ups and some finds of my own for this run to the store to pick up some things we needed and some freebies. (We needed black eye peas for the new year!)
 Here's the math on these 10 items:
Retail cost - $26.70
One Card Savings - $8.80
Coupon Savings - $13.10
Total Out of Pocket - $4.81 plus tax :)
81% savings!


Happy New Year!
