I recently have been putting quite a bit of time and effort into my new hobby...couponing. I have even gone as far as to put together a "coupon book" which I must say, I'm pretty stinkin proud of.  :) Each week, I have been browsing through the local grocery store ads (mostly Meijer and Kroger) and putting together my grocery list according to what is on sale that week and making sure that I have a coupon (which many times will double) to be sure that I am getting the best deal that I possibly can for the product.  Last week I went to Meijer with coupons in hand. I left the store with 5 bags of groceries all for the low price of $4.00!!! No joke .Pretty awesome huh? Yeah...I thought so.
