So I am sad to say that we are like many other families in the country who have been impacted by the economy and it seems like despite the fact that we do everything in our power to stick to a budget that squeaks money runs out before we are ready for it to.
But I find it a thrill to find a good deal and make it better. For example Jayme ran my sisters paper route for her one Sunday and due to some mix ups we ended up with a bunch of extra Sunday papers which means COUPONS GALORE!! And add that to the fact that there was some superb deals this week I was on a major high. Some of my biggest deals where Smiths had Danimals yogurt for a buck eighty eight add that to the fact that I had a dollar of coupon on one Danimals making it only eighty eight cents each!!!! So we scored six of them also Farmers Market has Hamburger Helper ten for ten and I have three coupons that save seventy five cents on three making nine of the ten only seventy five cents! Oh another one Smiths had Charmins twelve big rolls on sale for five ninety nine and I had a dollar of coupon for it, Yay. I love it and case lot sales :)
Just in our Smith's shopping trip we used like six dollars worth of coupons coupled with case lot sales are total went from 99 dollars to 47 dollars.
So now what I want to hear from you guys is what is some ways you found to stretch the buck???
And where do you find good coupons and or deals besides the Sunday Paper??
Kara, I'll share my ideas once you share your extra coupons! :)
