Grand Plié a la Seconde—Pas de Bourreé—Glissade—Jeté—Assemblé

*Grand Plié a la Seconde is the founding step, the beginning. The opening act of a shopper’s plan is the store, the retailer, and the sales within.

*Pas de Bourreé are the steps between; clipping the coupons, watching the blogs, matching the ads.

*Glissade is the prep. Making a list and organizing a plan creates a graceful interlude for the main event.

*Jeté, the flying leap; the actual shopping trip.

*Assemblé, where everything comes together.

The finale takes place at center stage with the register, the sale, the coupons,

and the shopper taking a final bow. Let us dance our way to savings!

Walmart Bust!!

I'm still a newbie when it comes to couponing, so I'm giving out tips as I learn them.

Tip#1: If you want to do a good shopping trip at Walmart, hold your coupons(P&Gmostly) until a week or so into the month. The first and the end of the month gets the most traffic because People are excited to get the deals, and at the end of the month they are trying to use all they have left before they expire.

So after this Tip let me tell you about my Walmart Run that went Bust...

This was my list:

2 Tampax Pearl Compaks ($3.99)--- OUT
2 Crest tooth paste($.97)--- not big enough
2 Dawn+olay(CVSpm $.99)--- not the right size
2 J&J First-Aid kits($.97)--- we bought, no issues
4 Febreze NOTICEables($2.50)--- $2.97 - more expensive & OUT
2 Febreze refills($2.50)--- IDK - not worth buying w/o NOTICEable
2 Febreze w/gain($.97)--- $1.97 - More expensive & we bought
3 Cascade trial size($.97)--- shelf cleared
2 Tide single load($.97)--- shelf cleared

So I ended up with 2 J&J First-Aid kits and 2 Febreze w/Gain... and my mom asked me to get her ice cream... Final Total = $6.07
