Loving me some Jewel!

The Spend $30 get $15 in catalina sale has been a life saver for me and my family. Up until now,food has been ultra expensive and the "deals" were seemingly dried up.
Well..my pantry is full and the bank isnt broken! heres an example of deals I did:

5 bottles of All Detergent: @ $3/10=$16.67
Used two $1.00 off coupons=14.67+tax
GET $15 back in CATS...then

Bought 5 Breyers Ice creams @3/$10=$16.67
Used two $.50 off=$15.67=tax
Used $15 CATS=
OOP of .67+tax
GET BACK $15 CATS...then

Bought Green Giant Veggies with various coupons to get just above $15, paid with $15 CATS got $15 more CATS..then
Bought 15 Betty Crocker Cake Mix=$15 got back $15 CATS

and so on...

I have spent hardly any OOP and have a ton of great items. THANK YOU Manufacturer,JEWEL and forums for helping me to do this!

good cvs day

had some ecbs that were about to expire, so i went to cvs and the coupon machine must have missed me, because it gave me 4 great coupons. first, $3 ecbs free, then $1 off colgate max, $4/$20 Diet/Nutrition and $2 off Colgate power toothbrushes.
Colgate max is on clearance for $.75 at my CVS and I got 6 of them free!!!
I also got:
5 Propel (Get $3 ECB Back)
1 CVS Bar Soap(.99, get $1ecb back)
3 Johnsons Lil Buddies Soap ($3/3=free)
2 Natures Bounty Vitamin D caps @4.49(BOGO and $2 ECBS back)

Not a bad trip!

Although I wish I had picked up the crest whitening strips, as they are a money maker with the $7 off coupon!

I have my coupon MOJO back now! :)

Oh and I forgot last week I picked up a great deal on Goldfish thanks to Jill Cataldo!

a little coupon depressed

I'm having a rough last week or so. I'm just not that into the deals lately. I dont want toothpaste of glade anymore! Plus, I dont have any extra money to get the items I do want! I could sure use some inspiration, so please feel free to comment! Ive been cutting back, scrimping, saving, couponing to the point my family thinks i'm nuts. I dont care when they make comments. I gotta do whatever I can to help my family out..Im just feeling like its not enough.
On the upside, gas prices dropped a little, which helps.
how do you get by?
