House Updates and a Coupon Trip

I hadn't posted any coupon trips for a while. Since I had a pretty good trip last week during Harris Teeter's super doubles I figured I'd post about it.


I got:
Two boxes instant potatoes
Laundry detergent
Potato Chips
KoolAid
Hormel Pork Loin
2 Packages of frozen Chinese Food Dinners
3 Boxes pierogies
5 Frozen pizzas
6 Green Giant boxed vegetables
4 Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls
Butter Spray
3 Packages Yo-Plus yogurt

I saved $70.32, I spent $13.06, and I got a $3 off coupon on my next shopping trip. Not too shabby!

We also finished painting the last two rooms in our house. HOLY COW I'M NEVER PAINTING AGAIN!!! Here's a picture of the dining room when we bought the house.


Here is the dining room now. We used the drawing my brother, Doug, had created for our wedding as our start piece and then worked from there. It only took three different gallons of red paint to get the correct shade :) Ah, the joys of painting.


We also finished our upstairs bathroom. I'm sorry to say we did not take a picture of this before we changed it because it was NOT pretty. The walls were done in a neon-teal blue color. Changing the color of the walls did amazing things to this bathroom.

Love the house and the deals. (Gracie said she wants the boxtops. Told you she is obsessed.) ;)

Your house is beautiful! And I am jealous with your good deals. I think I'd pay $13 for those two boxes of instant potatoes... okay its not quite that bad... but pretty close. :)

Leda, I'm totally blog stalking you. I'm jealous of your house. Also, I just found out that you came out for Rachel & Chris' wedding. I work with Rachel. How small is this world? Hope all's well!!
