Well, it's been quite awhile since I updated here. I've been very busy and making lots of changes in my life, so the blog kinda fell to the wayside. I've still been shopping and saving like always though!
I have big news! I will be teaching a couponing class this month at my best friend's church! I'm very excited and am preparing materials for the class presently. There will be at least one door prize (cause free stuff is awesome!). Hopefully, everyone will learn a lot. If this class goes well, I hope to hold a class on drugstore deals later.
So, for anyone still reading this blog, I'm taking suggestions for what you would want to learn at a couponing class. Feel free to email me or leave a comment below. Thanks!

Food Lion -- saved 42%
I went to Food Lion last week to take advantage of their deal on charcoal: buy Kingsford and get FREE Hidden Valley Ranch or KC Masterpiece. I also had some coupons to take even better advantage of the deal. I know some people don't like Food Lion because they don't double coupons or offer a lot of BOGO deals, but I've done really well shopping there regardless.
Trip summary: I did two transactions to maximize my number of FREEBIES. I also had some coupons that could not be used together in the same transaction. I was able to get 3 FREE Hidden Valley Ranch; 2 from the deal and 1 by coupon. Go to GatherRoundTheGrill to get FREE item coupons to use when buying KingsFord.
I bought 1 whole chicken, 3 bottles of Hidden Valley Ranch (FREE), 10lbs of Russet potatoes, 3 gallons of skim milk (almost $15!), 4 boxes of FL Mac&Cheese (FREE), 2 cans of Campbell's Chicken noodle (FREE), 1 box of ice cream pops, approx 4lbs of ground chuck, 2 small containers of Skinny Cow ice cream (25 cents total), 2 bags of KingsFord briquets, 2lbs of carrots, 2 18oz boxes of Cheerios, 1 Vlasic pickle spears, and 3lbs of pork ribs (just $1.30!).
Total before savings and coupons: $102.52
Total out of pocket: $57.98
------------------------------
saved 42% --- I may have saved even more; when my Food Lion does markdowns, they only show the lowest price on the receipt, not the original, higher price. I was also glad I did this in Georgia; very little food tax helps with the savings.

Bi-lo --- saved 54%
Bi-lo is open really late and it's just across the street, so I stopped by there too on Wednesday night. Since it was late, I didn't pick up much.
Trip summary: I bought 2 4lb bags of Dixie sugar and about 6lbs of pork chops. I haven't bought much pork lately, except for ham, because the prices have been outrageous. I try to pay under $2/lb.
Total before savings and coupons: $27.55
Total out of pocket: $12.70
----------------------------
saved 54% ---- it's nice being able to save on the essentials!
