Day Thirteen: Color Outside the Lines!

With sadness, today I opened my last package of clearance paper from Walgreens.  Back in December, they had 325 sheets of college ruled "filler paper" for just 87 cents!  These made great filler items as well, to permit the use of Register Rewards if I had coupons for each item in my transaction.  At almost 4 sheets to the penny, these have been a great tool for printed coupons.  The smaller size (10.5" x 8") has not interfered with any of the coupons printing, nor have the lines given barcode scanners any problems.  This will definitely be something I look for again in future, as the first package of paper I bought was $8 for 500 sheets or 1.6 cents per sheet!

Newly added to "Printable Coupons" today is http://www.homesolutionsnews.us/offers.shtml.  They have been a great source of savings, often coming up with new coupons.  While printing a Lysol coupon linked from Stretching a Buck this afternoon, I noticed that there were FIVE tabs full of coupons, not just one!!  Be sure to check out all of them for more goodness! 

Yesterday's shopping haul is below: 
Walgreens - $9.43 spent, $39.48 saved (submitting full amount for Kraft $10 mail-in rebate), $1 RR (net loss $3.50RR)
CVS - $2.82 spent, $22.02 saved, $10 ECB (net gain $1 ECB)
Homeland - $43.15 spent, $85.90 saved, $5 catalina (net gain $5)
Total: $55.40 spent, $147.40 saved, 72.7% savings
