A happy shopping week. I told my hubby that my shopper's saving fix was filled :)

Good luck -- Sorry I didn't post where I got these ideas - Walgreens was all over the place - try Dixie Coupon Chick, Grocery Smarts, and a random post - unfortunately the $6 RR glitch was fixed or I would have added another $3 to my list AND 9 more bars of soap!!! :) Smiths was through Savvy Shopper Deals and Grocery Smarts; & Sunflower was just their ads and Double ads for Wednesday - I used last weeks add on Cherries and this week's on grapes - we are going to be HAPPY!

Good luck with your shopping experiences this week.
