Coupon Deals Week #1

My Relief Society has asked me to teach a class on couponing and saving money on groceries next month for Enrichment Night. I am kind of excited to do this! So, for the next month I am going to be blogging my couponing adventures each week.The idea being that I can turn my blogs into a flipchart to show the ladies how to combine coupons with sales to get optimum savings. I'd also like to show them how to use multiple coupons to stock up or start their food storage. This week great deals are (drumroll, please):
