This would have been a REALLY amazing month but for 2 things: my DS's bday stuff and all the cleaning supplies I got this week LOL. I have a years worth now on almost everything! Anyways... here is my breakdown:

OOP: $476.30 (includes paper cost in this figure)
Total Retail Value: $1592.00
Saved: $1081.70 (67%)


I thought I would add the following information for those who think papers are not worth buying:

Cumulative COUPON savings: $466.33
Cost of Papers: $34.00
Bottom line COUPON savings: $432.33

My SIL did some "I'm making this meal" shopping. She probably spent as much, if not more, than I did, even buying things already in the house. Sooooooooo frustrating!
