5 lbs Signature select potatoes
12 - 5.3 oz containers Chobani zero sugar greek yogurts
6 count mega rolls Signature select toilet paper

My total before all savings: $163.11
Total after savings $74.10 

I used to be one of those "extreme" couponers. No, I wasn't on the tv show but I did similar grocery hauls. When my girls were growing up, I had quite the stockpile in the basement. It's not so easy to do that today not that I need a huge stockpile anymore but coupons are almost extinct. So, my savings yesterday is pretty amazing, I think
