Save Some $$$$$$


I've been learning the fine art of coupons, rebates, and bargain shopping. I've always been a big fan of getting a good deal - who isn't? But as I've been learning the past few months it does take practice and time to truly succeed! Now my friends you might be surprised to know that I purchased all the above products for $4.00!! Amazing huh?! I shopped the ads, looked at my favorite frugal blogs (links are on the right), combined manufactures coupons with store coupons and added them to sales and did a few mail-in-rebates (and I did get my money back!)Couponing takes planning, but it's such a thrill to walk out the store knowing you got all those NAME BRAND products for just $4.00! I'm happy to say that I'm addicted to couponing and if you read and follow the suggestions the ladies give in their blogs you will too! You will want to get a newspaper subscription for at the least the Sunday paper so you can get the coupon ads or pick it up late Sat. afternoon or evening at the grocery store . . . you might want to pick up 2 or 3 or even 5! My best advice on how to get started is click on the blogs on the right and read away- they tell you exactly what coupons to use and combine and what stores to use them at! You won't be sorry you did!Have fun.

Now you know the pure thrill of getting a good deal. You also know how I acquired stock piles of random stuff. The good thing is, yes its just like food storage, but just house storage stuff. Even after your done with school you will have items to last you!!! Hooray for you

It's totally addicting too! I've been too busy this week to do any 'deals', but I guess saving money all together is a good deal too!
