Anyone else completely inspired by these crazy couponers seen on Extreme Couponing? My husband and I freaked out last week as we watched one woman take her grocery bill from somewhere in the $600- range and end up paying $2.57 after tax. I have to say though...they make it look easy. I was buried in newspaper, printed off coupons and I have yet come up with a free tube of tooth paste. Is this why I always throw out the coupons? I am coupon deficient? Could be. Well my sister and law and I are going to see what we can do with the next grocery bill. I think if you could ultimately save 50%, you are doing great. I will scan my receipt when we commence to do this experiment and let you know how we do. I am skeptical. Just like body can take a photo, it takes an artist to be photographer...now I think I may not have "what it takes" to be a couponer...but I will give it a go. And please...for pete's sake...let me combine some sort of coupon to get something free...you say it can be done....SHOW ME:) I will get back to you if the coupon manufacturers are listening and magically I get some in the mail.
Oh, wontons were put on the back burner for a bit. I have misplaced a full packet of wonton wrappers that I had in my freezer. How do you do that? I don't know. Probably when I cleaned my freezer out and wiped everything down...maybe they got tossed? Could be. So I will be heading to Fred Meyer to get some more. But baseball starts this week too...so I may have to share a different recipe. One that doesn't involve experimentation...we will see what I can come up with! Happy Monday....op Tuesday... 12:14! Time for bed!
