Another long day

I have a long day once again around here.  I have to pay some bills and fill the gas tank in the van.  The gas will not be so bad since I do have about 40 cents at the moment off of the gas from my card at one gas station.  It will be more after I get done with the store today since I need a few more things from the store so I can cook for the weekend.  I need acouple of extras that are worth 200 points pluss the regular points on the card around here.  When I can get things on sale around here even better on me.  The wierd thing is about this is that I did forget some things that are on the list while I was at the store on Sunday.  My Husband was hollering about all the food we did get and realized in what I was trying to do for the place.  The bill was 196.33 before the card and coupons.  Between the both the saveings was 66.82.  I had 16 dollars worth of coupons also with 4 dollars on the double dollar coupons and 50.82 on the card.  So I got out of the store for 132.04 that includes taxes.  The folks behind me in line were shocked over what the total was.  What else can I do except to try and rake the grocery store over the coals.  With some folks around who refuse to use coupons, the cards, and sales togeather it is thier loss on alot of things around the grocery store.  Those folks are the ones that never had to streach out the dollar in thier households.  When you get use to streaching out the dollars it becomes easier over time.
