Kroger and How to Get enough Coupons

Hi! It has been cold here. It was -10 with wind chill 2 nights ago.The real cold night was when I waited up till almost 3 Am to go to my local convience gas station and pick up extra leftover newpapers for the coupons . They throw the papers in the trash , so the people let me take them. I got 6 whole papers , so lots of inserts . I went to Kroger afterwards, and this is what I got: 2 (1 pounds)Brauwager-$1 each, regular$2.99 ($2) , Tyson BBQ chicken breast-$5 marked down to $2.99 -which I had a $1 coupon , so it was($2 )-17 oz.,Heartland rotini pasta $1.59 marked down to $1.39 and I had coupon doubled to $1.10 , so($.29),4 pack Promise Active yogurt (FREE COUPON)--http://www.promisehearthealthy.com/ . They give away 500 coupons per day.One organic potato leek soup marked down to ($1.49),1 loaf bread (2.00),1 dozen eggs organic marked down to ($1.39),8 serving package mashed potatoes that just need water added $2.18 and I had a coupon for $1 , so(1.18).I had 10 items to check out for a total amount of $20.20 then when coupons taken off , it was ($10.33).Actually, I know I can do even better than that . but like I said before, I've been sick and not even feeling like walking in the store , but so better last 2 weeks. Thank for good Lord for that!!

Wow! I need to find out if the store up the street throws out their papers or not. What day do they get rid of them where you are?
