I need help.

I need some help. It appears I've turned into a compulsive shopper. Fortunately for the family, it's groceries I'm buying and nothing we won't use. However, I'm not a terribly organized person, so this is what our pantry now looks like.



Yes, I'm a little embarrassed to admit that's my pantry. LOL! But, in all seriousness, I am learning how to coupon effectively (not just taking the random coupon to the store at a random time). I'm searching out coupons and using them when the time is right (when that item is at it's lowest point so it ends up free, or almost free). In yesterday's trip alone I got a couple Pasta Roni's free, a couple boxes of cereal free (actually, the coupon was worth more than the cereal so the store ended up paying ME to take them), those cereal cups were free (2) and one was 9 cents. The Planters peanuts on the ground were $.39.

Anyway, needless to say, I've been finding some great deals that are hard to turn down. But, I need help organizing it now! LOL! So, as motivation, I'm posting these before pictures. When I'm done, I'll post after.
