2 Small Trips to Target & Walmart

I went to both Target and Walmart today -- although I didn't buy a whole lot at either place.  I've been feeling a little "under the weather" the past couple of days and didn't want to overdo it.

Here's a picture of what I bought at Target.
My total without coupons would have been $18.34, but using coupons, I got all of this for $1.95.  I saved $16.39 or 89% off of the original total.
