This weeks shopping trip I saved 50% all together.


I've just recently started the extreme couponing. Let me tell you, it can be addicting. The amount of money you save is magical! I was asked today if I am going to be one of those people who buys something just because it was a good deal. The answer to that question is NO. If it is not something I would use I won't buy it. Unless I can get it for free, I will then donate those items to my local woman’s shelter. Everything I bought this week I WILL use. It looks like I won't have to buy tampons for awhile. Thank heavens!! I hate having to buy them almost every month. And ladies you know how spendy those things can get for the good kind.

Buy shopping sales, clearance, and using coupons you can save big too!! Even small savings count. Every penny you save is a penny you can spend elsewhere. Subscribe to my blog to see how I keep doing it. You might even be able to take some of my savings ideas and use them at a store near you. If you have any questions please ASK! I won't know them unless you voice them. I love saving money, and I love helping others do it too.
