My Recent Shopping Trips: Harris Teeter, Target & Walmart!


I had a BIG week of shopping!  It was so nice to get back into the swing of couponing...I haven't been able to do much lately because my daughter ended up breaking both my laptop AND my printer a few weeks ago (who knew she would dump an entire cup of coffee into my printer AND pull my laptop off of the table within a few days of each other??)!  Well thankfully, we were able to find both a new laptop & a new printer last weekend during the Tax Free holiday for very reasonable prices!

Since it had been a few weeks since I'd been out to grab the major deals, I spent more this week than I normally do, but I won't need anything for the next 2 or 3 weeks except bread, fresh produce & possibly milk.
