Whatcha Working on Wednesday

It is Wednesday so it is time for Whatcha Working on Wednesday at Leslie's blog My Country Home .
Today I am planning on working on turning this little box into my new coupon storage box, I have a note book and it is not working out, I am going to make dividers to fit the container and they will pretty. Sorry about the coloring. My craft room is bright green and at 4:30 in the morning it makes things odd colors.
Coco went with me today. For the first time I can remember in my life Fry's Food had a case lot sale. I had a bunch of fun this is the car before I unloaded:

This is the trunk and the back seat. This is the cans all neat until I have room in the house (it is finally cool enough that they will be okay out here) and the dried goods. I got a 3 different kinds of broth, 2 different kinds of beans, tomato sauce, tomatoes, pasta sauce, green chili's, flour, sugar, oatmeal, macaroni & cheese and 2 more cases of drinking water for our storage . Most of this will get us through the first 6 months of next year. I will use up my pantry goods first.
I got enough mac n cheese for all next year! They had meat on sale that would have been $10 for just one of them and I got them for less than that for all 4 and the lettuce I had 2 coupons for plus they were on sale. I almost forgot I also got a DVD player for our living room that was $24. So this is my receipt and one up close. Do you see that saving? I spent $211.84 on all that and I saved $217.27

WOOOHOO!!! That feels so good to have all these items in my food storage. Now I need a little nap and work on the container for coupons. Hugs, Bobbi Jo

I have food storage envy! We have maybe a three month supply. I'm so glad you left a comment, I was messing with my blog and lost all my "friends". I couldn't remember your address.

Yeah, it feels so good, doesn't it? Wow, you did great. We got DVD players last year for Christmas for $9.99 during a 4 hour sale and I was thrilled. Great job!!!
