Cinnamon rolls.... coupons....and a crazy lady

Ok, I have been coupon shopping for a little over a year now and have snatched several bargains along the way. But today I don't know what came over me. One of our local stores was tripling coupons up to .50, but they have restriction, for every 3 coupons being doubled you have to have $10.00 in sales (before coupons). That's a lot to keep up with. So Emilee and I headed to the store and Briana keep home the little ones. It is much easier without Belle standing up in the cart and Andrew taking off in every direction. It was on our way home it hit me, "why did i just buy 12 cans of cinnamon rolls?" Yes, they were only .25 a can, but did we need 12 cans? You have to be careful, coupon shopping can pull you in just like anything else. I'm sure that is what the retailers and manufacturers are counting on.




I wonder what we should have for breakfast tomorrow : )
