So, after work, I bought some fabric, patterns, and elastic. Without sale prices, coupons, and employee discount, it would have been $227.17.
I paid $44.07.
*gives self a pat on the back*

Have you done anything you're proud of recently?

Hmm... I've done a lot of art I'm proud of semi-recently, but in the past week or so, I've only sat on my bum. x__x But... in a way, I guess that's something to be proud of? I have a really hard time relaxing without feeling anxious.

@Kaderin Triste: Are you bad at the grocery store because you break the rule about not going if you're hungry?

Um well as to what I'm proud of? Lol I was recently able to do some writing after years of not being able to.

How is this possible? Where do these magic coupons come from? I am a sale shopper myself, but mostly it's just 10-20% off original prices. And the items are never on sale when I need them. Am o cursed?

There is a lady who has bought out all of the salt in the store next door. It's on sale, two for one, so she got 18 of them. But that seems quite extream!

Our closest by grocery store always has some stuff 35-50% off. Most of it is stuff they stop selling but sometimes also stuff close to expiring date. At one point a brand was on sale. It was tabs for a dishwasher. It was 1+1. However there where also two packs with 50%. So I got 1+1 and 50% off.

@xogizmoox: Does it take a lot of planning on your end to get the items and coupons to match up at stores? I know some stores near me are changing policy's and such.

@xogizmoox: Does it take a lot of planning on your end to get the items and coupons to match up at stores? I know some stores near me are changing policy's and such.

Basically I get Sunday paper coupons (I don't buy the paper my library gives the coupons and sale papers out for free they only keep the paper itself) I end up with 4 of each package of coupons every week.... Then I usually get CVS coupons in my app or mailbox lots of 20% 50% off etc and usually a bonus bux offer ($2 off next purchase etc) then I get meds there so I get $5 bonus bux after every 10 scripts our house has 12 meds total so I earn bux often then I look for offers like buy this get free bux back.... With CVS the sales usually match the newspaper weekly coupons too so say I caught a 2/$4 shampoo sale and newspaper has save $2/2 then I throw in my bonus bux or the %off coupons or if it has a buy this get bux offer it's usually buy this for $3 get $2 or sometimes it is the exactly amount back so I may go back in with the FREE BUX buy a SECOND ONE get more free bux to spend later so I got a second item FREE and also I have $3 off a later purchase ......that's CVS..... Then next albertsons (and other affiliate stores) has a app every month at least but here lately WEEKLY in the app it has free items no purchase nessisary stuff like free cookies, candy, chips, ice cream, pasta, one week I got a deli whole rotisserie chicken (normally $7) OFFER OF THE WEEK IN APP FREEBIE........ next up I have survey apps and sites too I do quick surveys and get gift cards and some are paypal so I use these to buy more stuff and free once again I usually cash out my gift cards for Walmart or CVS or Amazon /EBay.........next I go on websites of my favorite items or something new I've seen advertised if you email the customer service say I love your product (name) blabla I was wondering if you have any coupons or samples of new stuff you can send me and often you get a reply with stuff I have received a few FREE PRODUCT coupons in the past...... Walmart has savings catcher so I earn cash there sometimes if another store has the item cheaper (say store A. had something on sale for $1 but they ARE SOLD OUT) Walmart will price match it or savings catch it so you earn free Walmart credit...... I also have a few apps that if you buy the weekly items (the offers change) but example buy these cookies earn 70cents you take a picture of the reciet on your app and it credits for your purchase (one app pays check, one PayPal, one Walmart /Amazon) cash out at $25 AND EACH APP USUALLY MATCH UP WITH THE SAME PRODUCT So say it has cookies on it this week OREOS we will say OK they are on sale for $2.99 then my newspaper coupon has a save 25cents then one app has 70cents earned one had $1earned one had 50cents earned so basically almost free cookies (the apps don't give the money off instant at store but you get it back) I am on a few sites that send full size products to try and give feedback and the stuff is free but they are join by invite things :/ .........and then I got one app that pays you through PayPal and you get payed to PLAY GAMES it lists games on it and the list rotates but say I like casino apps and candy crush and I saw them two listed so I download the games and get payed to play them so many points a day and since I play them daily anyways I might as well get payment right now it pays slow but heck if you play the game all the time anyways it eventually adds up..... lots of stuff gives free stuff on birthdays too shops and restraunts and I have a few other things too but yeah lots of free I will keep my invites to apps etc links in pm because I am not sure if they allow linking on this site) even though it is not avi site links :/
