The Official start of my Super Couponing!

So here we go:
I went to Walgreens yesterday & of course they were out of EVERYTHING I wanted & had coupons for, what a way to get me down! So I got 1 thing of EOS lip balm, spent $3.22 with tax & got back $3 in Register Rewards (RRs). Then I went over to Jewel & got 13 (yes 13 yikes) Hunt's snack packs ($0.88ea), 6 boxes of Mrs. T's Pieorgies ($3.49 BOGO, w/ $1 Q off each one) and 1 International Delight Coffee Creamer ($0.99, w/ $0.55Q) So my total was $16.35 plus tax - $3 in RRs = about $13.50 (I lost my receipt what a shame :/)
Today I went back to Walgreens because I was told they'd have the razors I wanted back in, & they did!
So I bought 3 (in seperate transactions) Schich Hydro 5 razors $7.99 - $4Q  =$4.16 ea & got back $4 in RRs ea... so $12.48 & got back $12. Then we headed over to Jewel again for frozen meals...
Could have done better here but I couldn't focus due to a crabby baby throwing a fit :/
1st Transaction:
2 Healthy Choice Frozen Meals ($2ea) ($1Q)
1 Healthy Choice Steamer Frozen Meal ($2.50ea) (2 - $1Qs)
2 Marie Callenders Frozen Meals ($2.50ea)
3 Hunts Snack packs (i know why the hell did I buy more of these? because I needed to reach $25 in participating ConAgra products to get my $10 Catalina to print out!) ($0.88ea)
Total: $11.28 - $8 in RRs (where I should have used a $10 cat but I was distracted) $3.28
2nd Transaction:
6 Healthy Choice Frozen Meals ($2ea) (2 - $1Qs & 1- $0.50Q)
1 Hunts Snack Pack ($0.88)
Total: $10.51 - $10 Catalina (again I screwed up, I had another $0.50Q I couldn't use here because I wouldn't have been able to use the $10 Cat... I should have used the Cat on the 1st transaction and the RRs on the second... ah live and learn!) $0.51

Total spent out of pocket : $33
Total Catalina's/RR's in my pocket $24...
NET $9 spent on all that stuff above... wow, not 1/2 bad if I do say so myself!!!
