AWWW FIRST BABY STEPS!!

Take note that 1, this was a long time ago, 2, they still used to have coupons that did not say ETS all over them and 3, I took like a whole week to plan this trip and it was the most intense thing I had ever done at that point. Look at me now. :) If I could do this back then, you can do it now.

Before taxes, coupons and price matches I would have spent $64.34. After applying the coupons and price matches to this trip I only spent $ 23.59 which turns out to be a 63% savings! I only started couponing at the beginning of this month so this is a pretty big feat for me!
