Coupons are AWESOME! Reason # 15…
In my pre-coupon days, I bought Great Value Brand everything thinking it was the best way to stretch my budget… those days are history! One of the many benefits to couponing is being able to (most of the time) buy name brand items for the same price or cheaper than the store brand version. While I am definitely not opposed to store brands, sometimes… they just aren’t the same! Mayo, macaroni & cheese and diapers are a few on my list! Here is what I bought this week!
