You know coupons are a part of your lifestyle when...

...last night our family took a night out with dinner and a trip to Storybook Island to see the lights (before the possible blizzard and sub-zero temps hit this week!).  As we sat at Culvers (my new favorite burger joint, making the distance from Burgerville a lot less painful) I told the kids we were going to make another stop on the way home.  Amy screwed up her face and said, "Walgreens?"

Since we live a little outside Rapid City, when we "go into town," I usually have a stack of coupons ready to run into Walgreens and grab a few of their super-cheap sale items.  But tonight I was actually able to say that I had no plans for Walgreens, and we had an even cooler plan for the kiddos, besides waiting in the car with Daddy while Mommy bought shampoo.

I did hit Wal-Mart and Target on the way home, though.

I was watching "Extreme Couponing" last night on TLC and totally thought about you! One guy bought over $2,000 worth of groceries, but ended up paying less then $100. MADNESS! COMPLETE MADNESS!!!! If was organized enough I would hop on that boat!
