Well, I guess I am not doing to well with the Fess Up Monday blogs, am I? It seems like my life that was already busy has gotten kicked in to an even higher gear lately! I love to blog. But unfortunately, I am a full time working mother. Which does not leave much spare time to sit in front of a computer and write like I would love to. So, that means my blogs are sporadic depending on the blurbs of free time I might have come up. I wish I could be your one stop source on all things coupon! But, time limits me. I noticed today that I lost a reader. And I don't blame them. I cannot promise multiple blogs a day or even a blog every day. I certainly cannot post every hot deal or sale. But at any rate, I do hope that you will continue to follow me when I am able to be on here. I am always happy to help another couponer in any way I can! My only goal is that I can inspire you to save by seeing what I have been saving. If I can point you in the right direction and help you change your shopping habits for the better, I have accomplished what I set out to do.
So, having said all that, do you have anything you want to share? I'll go first. I had not been on a large grocery shopping trip for about the last 3 weeks. So, it was not a fantastic shopping trip this week. But I did manage to save more than I spent. I spent $49.43 and I saved $78.04 . $25.15 of that was coupons. The rest was in sales. So, you can see, it's not just coupons that saves you money. The key really is knowing
when to shop and
when to use those coupons!
Happy Saving!
~All thanks to God~

Sorry you lost a reader...I did too! Oh well, can't please them all. : )
I have the time to blog just nothing inspiring lately to blog about. So it's been a little bleh on my blog.
Ohhh...I went to Publix this past weekend and spent $65, after coupons and sales...The total was $98 before coupons/after sales...So that was $33 in coupons! It was awesome!! We all went as a family and I was telling my hubby over and over "oh my gosh I can't believe we just paid $65 for almost $100 of groceries!!".
Thanks for your inspiration!!
I haven't seen many sales around here and have been busy busy busy too. So I've been making several short grocery trips a week for milk, bread, that sort of thing. No wonderful sales to report, but I'm really only running in and getting the things I NEED, so I don't think I've been spending much. However, we're upgrading the house so have been spending LOTS of money there! :( and :)
Keep up the blogging as time permits!
