Getting back to what I am good at..... saving money

I have been through a lot these past couple of months and I am working every day to get my life back to the way it used to be.  I am putting more time and energy back into my coupons and it feels great.  Just wanted to share today's savings with you.  I shopped at Fry's, Safeway and CVS.  I spent $43.96 and saved $136.57 ($35 of that was from coupons and the rest was for using my store cards for in store discounts.  I am  happy when I save over 60% so this was excellent!
I bought 9 boxes of cereal, 5 boxes of cream cheese, 4 large tubes of tooth paste, 2 bags tortillas, 4 boxes of frozen pizza, two bags of chips, 2 bottles of salad dressing, 4 boxes of cookies, crackers, dole fruit cups, 2 pounds deli turkey, 2 deodorants, 15 lunch ables, 3 grill seasonings, 8 Greek yogurt, 2 16oz sour cream, 2 mayo and one pack of gum. 
I also took advantage of Safeway's hallmark card deal they have right now.  I bought 3 cards (have to be over 1.49 each) and received $5 for my next visit.  When I checked out from all of my stores I ended up with $8 to use on my next purchase so I actually bought all of my groceries for about $35 after tax.
