My deals as of 6/16

So as I mentioned in my last post I started couponing! Yes another crazy couponer out there. But I'm so sick of paying ridiculous prices at the grocery store for things when I could be using that money for savings, wedding things, and other important expenses. So, here is what I have bought up to this point and I am planning another small trip either tomorrow or Saturday.
Not much but I only paid a total of $0.89 for everything you see here plus an 8x10 from Walgreens. This is what I got and how I spent it.

Walmart
Cottonelle Flushable Moist Wipes
Dial Body Wash
Total before Coupons: $3.71
Total AFTER Coupons: -$1.03

Yes, they paid me $1.03 to take these items from the store. I used the following coupons:
$2/1 any dial product
Free Cottonelle Flushable Moist Wipes (I got this from the Cottonelle website)

Walgreens
Airwick Air freshener kit $7.99
8x10 Collage print $3.99
Total before Coupons: $11.98
Total AFTER coupons: $0.99 (this is after receiving $3RR)

The coupons I used were:
$4/1 Airwick kit
Free 8x10 collage print (from walgreens website)
And I also got a $3 register reward to use on my next purchase.

Petsmart
2 Pawsafe Cleaners $3.99 each
Total before Coupons: $7.98
Total AFTER Coupons: Free

Coupons I used were:
Petperks card made each cleaner $0.99
2 $1/1 pawsafe cleaner

I think I did really well for my first time after starting to coupon and I can't wait to see what I get at the end of the week.

Updates!

Well I don't have many updates to share but I figured I would post since it has been forever! So, because of school I haven't been able to get much of anything done for the wedding but I look at ideas every once in a while. I went and tried on a dress the other day which I loved, but it's a 2010 design so I'm sure I won't be able to find it many places.
Ok, here is the dress it is a Christina Wu 15417. Keep in mind this dress is a size 20 and I am no where near that so it is quite big and the shop didn't have any dress clips to make it tighter. I was only able to hold it tight at the top so the rest of it is quite baggy, and its quite long. Here is the dress on the model:

That's my only actual wedding update, but on a side note my best friend just got engaged on June 9. I'll try to get in the crafty mood again soon, so I  can post more updates.
