Extreme Couponing...maybe one day!

Let's just say I'm addicted to the new show on TLC "Extreme Couponing."  I would love to save our family money on grocery items we regularly use.  I am re-training myself...and hopefully one day, I can get items for almost nothing.  If you have coupons you don't use, I would love to have them for my collection.  The more I have, the more I can get ;)  Here are some finds I did recently this week.
CVS
3 Aquafresh Kid Toothbrushes $1 each
Used three $1 coupons
Total= $.24 (just paid tax)

1 Colgate Toothbrush $1 each

Used six $3 coupons
Used $1.99 ECB rewards

4 BIC Men's Comfort Razors 4 pk.= $3.99 each (buy one get one 50% off, so 2nd one is worth $2)

1 BIC Women's Comfort Razor 4 pk.= $2.69 each
Used one $2 coupon
Total= $.69
