I DID IT!!! I DID IT!!! I DID IT!!! I finally got my crap together and did the whole grocery smarts thing! I have to admit, I was very intimadated (after all, Jeff is the grocery shopper at our house, and that is something I am VERY THANKFUL for) but after a quick and painless trip to the web site (http://www.grocerysmarts.com/ code g84ckc) and a few (six I think, THANK YOU again Liz) phone calls to Liz to talk me out of my curled up rocking huddle in the corner, I DID IT!!! I went to Albertsons last night and bought:
8 boxes- Cinnimon Toast Crunch
4 boxes- Frosted Flakes
2 boxes- Trix
14 cans- Progresso soup
4 boxes- Pillsbury Toaster Strudel
4- Grands Biscuts
6 boxes- Chex mix bars
2 bags- Chex mix
3 bags- Cheerios snacks mix
3 boxes- Sunkist lemon bars
8- Betty Crocker warm delights
4 boxes- Betty Crocker brownies
8 boxes- Betty Crocker fruit snacks
2- Betty Crocker frostings
2- Betty Crocker cookie mixes
4- Mentos Gum
1 Gallon- Chocolate Milk
79 Items ALL FOR: $37.03
WOW I might be hooked!!! I do have to disclose that I followed Liz's advise and went later at night (9:00) and that was definatly a good idea because there wern't very many people there. After I got everything (it was very easy because most of it was in a display at the front of the store) I went to the check stand, the checker was SO nice and she started ringing me up. After 3 transactions (I did 7) a women got in line behind me, and I started to panic I was litterally shaking. But, when she heard what my total was she asked me how I was doing this (she was very nice too). I did calm down a little (after all from start to finish it did only take 7 Minutes), and I did the party dance all the way home (sound effects included!!!) So if anyone wants to get a butt load of groceries for CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP!!! (This means you Becky Hancock) get on this web site http://www.grocerysmarts.com/ and start clicking on the links to down load your coupons, call the support line 1-800 LIZ (Thanks again Liz!) if you get a little paniced, just do it!!! It might be my new drug of choice!!!

I couldn't be prouder if you were my own child!!! So was Jeff with you for any of it? I think it would be fun to see him on the coupon high... Not that you weren't a show all on your own!
It is addicting. I said on Jen's comments that i sip a soda throughout the store and it is my free time. Kind of relaxing and enjoyable at the same time saving so much money huh?
