My next stop was at Rite Aid!!  We have an AWESOME Rite Aid and have some of sweetest gals working there!!  They just love Emma and I believe that the feeling is mutual!  She enjoys going in there too because they know her by name and love seeing her sweet smile!!  I wanted the Oral B toothbrushes but they were sold out:-(  So I settled for diapers and here's my breakdown:

I bought 2 Pampers cruisers diapers at $8.97 each!
Total $17.94

Used 2- $1.50/1 Pampers, 2- $4.99 +UP, and a $3 off of a $15 purchase coupon

Got $4 +UP

I made $2.04!!!

How awesome is that????  I GOT PAID TO BUY DIAPERS!!!!!!  Seriously people, in this day and age, as expensive as everything is, coupons can really help you to save a TON of money!!!  Since I began couponing 3 months ago, I've saved over $1320 for my family and have a HUGE donation box!!!  The donation items will be going to 2 local shelters and to our Ladies group at church to make baskets for people in the hospital!!!  Lovin' my FUN new hobby!!!!
