First REAL shopping trip with coupons

Well I went grocery shopping at Bi-lo using coupons and the sales ad. I purchased several items that were buy one get one free, the meal deal of the week and normal sale items. I used 4 coupons and one was doubled. I had things like Ice cream, Cheetos and bread. I have a weekly budget for food and the goal is to spend less than my budget and get more food for the week.

I ended up spending $63 on $94 worth of food for the week. I saved $30 and also got $.05 in fuel perks. That was good for my first week of doing this. I look forward to what the future weeks will hold for me as I adventure the ups and downs of using coupons.
