Should I call it a kill?....

I stopped in Target today for a 'haul' - AKA I popped in Target to focus-shop on some good coupon deals. I did well on quality brand name items I need & could use. Here's the deal:




Food Items:



V8 Fusion Juice - big bottle (2)



Kashi Crackers (2)



Kashi Cookies (3)



(Kashi Special: buy 4 get 1 FREE)



Ortega Diced Chilis (2)



Ortega Diced Jalapenos (2)



Non-Food Items:



Aveeno Sunscreen Lotion (1)



Target Brand Nail Polish Remover (1)



20# Tidy Cat Scoopable Litter (1)



Tums 24ct (1)



NexCare Bandaids (1)



Papermate Ballpoint Pens 2-pk (1)



Scotch 'Magic' Tape (1)



2 Kid shorts for Zoey (under dress shorts I found on Clearance)




Here's the stats less the dry details:



Without planning & stacking coupons: $57.27.



With Zoey Shorts (no coupons), Target & Mfg Coupons: $29.25



Take Zoey's shorts out & my total would have been ~$23.50



- That's $1.31 an item!!!

Mind you, with Zoey's shorts it's an additional 15 cents an item. I was far too lazy to take a pic of all the items DESPITE I think that's "cheezy" when people post that on the coupon sites anyhow. Either way, I was feelin' a bit like a bad-arss to score the quality brands I did at that cost.

Am I crazy for getting so excited over my Target shopping "kill?" I wanna know if I have any hiding closet coupon friends...
