1st Coupon Experience

I've been inspired by my friend Tracey to start saving $$$ using coupons. This involves checking several coupon blogs, getting a few Sunday newspapers, and going to several stores to get the weekly sale items. Here's how I did...

Walgreens: Spent $26.10 Saved $49.70
I had to go through the checkout line 7 times! And I learned about Register Rewards (RRs). I bought 3 boxes of Kotex tampons, 3 of pads, 40ct Claritin, 20 Huggies diapers (s6), 3 boxes mac n cheese, big bag craisins, and 2 small cans of pringles.
Jewel: Spent $8.02 Saved $31.72 (sales + coupons)
With this deal I got $3 CAT which I think is money I can use on my next purchase. If I were more experienced, I would have used the $3 on the yogurt and made the total spent $5.02.
Target: Spent $5.87 Saved $4.42
I eat Kashi cereal every morning for breakfast.
So what do you think Tracey, how'd I do?
