My First Couponing Outing

I did my very first couponing outing this evening. I was so excited! I was also a little worried though. The last time I went out with internet coupons (to County Market), they told me they don't accept internet coupons. Since most of my coupons tonight were internet coupons, I was a little afraid that they might not take them. But, they took them and all was great! Here's how I did:

Total bill (not including tax): $61.79
Coupon total: $50.46
Total out of pocket (not including tax): $11.33
