It’s been a while since I posted one of my shopping trips. I asked Bryan to stop at the store on his way home for a couple of things, and when he came in with the goods I just couldn’t resist taking a picture.
In his defense I do want to mention that the man does know how to spot a deal and use those coupons! See how he did here shopping at Piggly Wiggly. He also spotted a sweet deal at Publix during this shopping trip.
I had decided not to do a big shopping trip this week as I am pretty stocked up on everything. I did need some bread and milk though, and I wanted to get some of the chicken that’s on sale so I asked my hubby to stop and grab a few things.
He was hungry going in so you know how that goes. We now have plenty of Tyson Chicken, Hot Dogs, and sandwich meat. I accidentally left out of the picture a few Sobe Waters. They were out of the chicken I wanted, but my man is so awesome that he thought to get a raincheck!! You can see it right there in the picture.
He ended up getting $110 worth of groceries for $99.
This is just an example of how we used to shop before we started using coupons. If I had been with him in those days during this trip I would’ve thrown another $100-$200 worth of groceries in too.
While this is a rare shopping trip for us, I’m so thankful that we’ve found a way to save money on our groceries by using coupons. You can see some of my coupon shopping trips here.

Disclaimer: Bryan works very hard for our money so that I can stay home with the children, and he is well within his rights to spend as much as he’d like at the store on whatever he’d like to buy:)
I don’t let my husband do any shopping for this reason,lol,and he can spend the money how he wants but does love a stocked pantry too,so he leaves it up to me,but he will ask for coupons,for eating out,I trained him well,for this!:)
That’s so cute…and I love the disclaimer. I need to remember that more often.
My hubby is so coupon crazed that he won’t buy anything without me unless he has the coupon book to check. And going out to eat without a coupon is almost non-existent, unless it’s a special occasion. Even then, we check retailmenot and restaurant.com! I am also a stay at home mom so I am extremely appreciative and won’t fuss if he “slips up”.
