1st in Savings !!!

I was absolutely amazed at myself earlier.  I have been on this coupon adventure for about 2 weeks now ... trying to get down how it is done and collecting a small stash of coupons ... well today I decided to venture out to CVS - their BOGO (buy one get one) free deals were too good to pass up on a few things.  Plus they had some awesome sales going on!  First off .. they had Purex laundry soap for (bogo) free and also Colgate toothpaste (+ i had a coupon for $0.75 off for this too!) ... then they had 12 pk Pepsi products 3/$10 ... 2 litter Coke products $0.79 and Pepsi 2 litter products for $0.88 (they were out of the pepsi product 2 litters though).  Well ... I got my laundry soap, my colgate toothpaste, 3-12pks of Pepsi, 2-2 litter sprites, and 1-2 litter Coke, plus 2 ice cream bars (yes i know - not on the coupon venture lol - kids were with me though!).  I spent $23.13 with a total savings of ... get this ... $18.83 !!!!!!!!  Now that is savings !!!!  I was so happy with myself =)    Pics posted below!
