Just totaled up my remaining grocery receipts for 2009.
Value: $5904
Actually spent: $3444
Total Savings: $2460
Percentage saved overall: 42%
Average spent per week: $66
Total savings just in coupons: $1094.96
Not bad for our first year of mega-couponing and sale-shopping! I was hoping to stay under $100/week, so we managed that quite well. The last few months we weren’t shopping as much because I had so much stockpiled in the pantry and freezers. We also did more shopping without coupons, so that affected our percentage a bit.
And I really miss all the free toilet paper.
