I am fast becoming an addict of using coupons, and working hard to get the best deals. I have been saving more and more, which is great.........but..........

I find I am spending around 1 1/2 hours minimum in the grocery store each week (one big trip). I can't even take my son anymore because he is done for after about 45 minutes. But still, an hour and a half?!

I always go with a shopping list, and my coupons that I will probably or most likely use.

Do you all have any tips for speeding up the process? Do you just get faster as you have more experience bargain shopping? Do I just need to stop being obsessive about this, spending 2 minutes at each selection?!!!

It does get easier as u become more seasoned. Are u stockpiling? I am at the point where I only get certain items if they are free. U don't have to get every deal. as u become more seasoned u really learn to tell the difference between a true deal and good sale. I started shopping at midnight in order to take my time. I can shop in about 1 hr now with the kids being horrible(like they were today, ). Good Luck and happy bargain shopping.
