If I was excited--Danny was ecstatic.
The expression he got when he handed two packages of Oreos to the cashier along with a follow-up coupon--and didn't have to pay a dime--was priceless.
Cashier: "guess you don't owe nothin!"
Danny: big grin. I worked the system.
And we all know how much Danny likes to work the system.
We decided to keep a running total of all we save using coupons, sales, or deals (these are on things we would have bought anyway--unless they were free, like the Oreos).
Currently, since we moved here, we have saved $121.38 on all purchases. Which comes to 40.23% of what we actually paid.
