March Coupon Savings

First of I'd like to apologize for not posting anything for awhile. I'm back now!

I know March isn't quite over yet, but I just had to post the coupon savings I have from this month. If you'd like to use a spreadsheet like mine, I downloaded it from Thecouponproject.com. I use the Google docs version so I can get to it from any computer. 
March 2011:

Total shelf price: $927.30 (If I bought all the food and other items without coupons or waiting for a sale this is how much it would've cost me!)

Coupons: $416.93 (I counted store coupons in this total as they are technically coupons. Rest assured I never use a store coupon without a manufacturer's coupon unless it's for the house brand.)

Sale discounts: $220.88 (This is the discount from the item I am purchasing when it's on sale. I try to buy as much as I can on sale and with a coupon.)

Total savings: $637.81 (Total of sale discounts and coupons.)

Total out of pocket: $289.49 or a savings of 68.78%!

I spent less out of pocket this month and saved more with coupons. Who says coupons aren't worth clipping? ;)
