Do you ever have weeks that you get all the coupons ready and then never get to the store? I have driven around with list, coupons and resuable shopping bags ready, for the last three days. Each time we are near a grocery store it just doesn’t fit for me to go in (usually it’s […]
After a few weeks of big trips, this was a break week for us. I actually would have loved to hit the stores for a few deals, but there was no time! I spent three days playing in Rhode Island at the CVS headquarters (including one day playing in the snow). Super traveler Sarah (my […]
It’s hard to believe we are already two months into this year! Looking at our budget so far for the year, things have been going great. Eating out of the pantry for almost the whole month of January put us way ahead. We hve enjoyed using some of that cushion to get restocked with the […]
This week I made a last minute trip to Publix to grab the first week of Italian Days deals. With an hour to spare until the store closed and the ad ended, I still managed to find all the deals in stock! We went to a different Publix in town that is mostly a college […]

Happy Friday! After being nearly washed away yesterday, we spent today enjoying the beautiful sunny weather hiking in the woods. I hope many of you enjoyed this gorgeous day after your rain/snow. Shopping for us this week was pretty straight forward. I hit Kroger for a ton of fruit thanks to a 4 day sale […]
This week I hit Walgreens and Publix. My husband was sick all week, so my trip to Publix was just for a surge of Vitamin C and fresh produce. I used a few coupons, but really didn’t buy much that had coupons available. Walgreens though was a fun trip for the couponer in me. Publix: […]
