About half the coupons were manufacturer coupons, and the other half were internet printables. For details on where to find the coupons, check out the AWESOME double coupon deal list posted at PinchingYourPennies.com.

Total: $49.04

My total started out at about $120 (egads!), then went down to about $93 once they scanned in my Fresh Values card, and then finally ended up at $49.04 after all the manufacturer coupons.

The Double Coupon event runs now through Tuesday, August 31.

Thank you to all those who put together this fabulous list! If you find other deals, be sure to share them in the Smith's thread on the Utah's Screaming Deals forum.
