Yeah. If I weren't the coupon queen, I'd right with you. I only shop
Safeway for stuff I can get really cheaply with coupons, so I make out
when I do my (once every two or three months) trips there, armed with a
handful of coupons and a list.

For my thirty-seven dollars last time around, I got six huge sacks of
groceries that I would have spent nearly ninety bucks for normally.
