How to figure out how much you saved

Because I know you forgot how to do the math....Don't worry, I did too!

Here's how to figure out what percent you saved on your bill.
First, the breakdown: Example-
Paid out of pocket: $94.47
Total of Manufacturer coupons used: $78.00
Total Store Sale Savings: $209.08
Total Store Savings and Manufacturer coupons: $287.08
Total Savings Percentage: 75%

First figure
out the grand total of your bill as if you didn't use coupons or store sales.
$381.55 ($287.08 + $94.47)
Divide the amount you paid out of pocket by the total amount of saved (coupons and store savings)
$94.47 (total amount paid out of pocket) / $381.55 (Grand total amount of out of pocket, coupons, and store savings) = .2475
Then
multiply that number by 100
so......24.75 or 25% (this is the percentage that you paid for your groceries)
Now
subtract 25%-100%=75% (this is the percentage that you saved on your groceries)
Total Savings 75%

First of all I want to say great blog! I had a quick question in which I'd like to ask if you don't mind.
I was interested to find out how you center yourself and
clear your mind before writing. I have had a hard time clearing my mind
in getting my ideas out there. I do take pleasure in writing but it just seems
like the first 10 to 15 minutes are generally wasted simply
just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or hints?
Cheers!
