It’s been kinda rainy lately in my area, so while we are cooped up in the house, we like to do crafts! This week, A.C. Moore has a 50% off coupon plus a sale on Fall decor, arrangements, and so much more!
Keep in mind most craft stores accept competitor coupons. Often there’s a limit of one per customer, so if you need more than one item take a friend or spouse with you.

We’ve come to the final two days of September, and I have to say that I feel awesome about this month! We really felt like our changes weren’t that big in the grand scheme of things (though I do know going back to using two cars will be nice).
This week we did well, but we also knew we had some wiggle room with being ahead already. After not shopping for two weeks I needed every penny of our grocery budget to get what we needed. My husband and I also went out for a date night and ate dinner out, but we used a Restaurant.com voucher so our dinner only cost $18 including the voucher and tip. Pretty sweet!
Weekly Savings:
$37 – not eating out (normally spend $55 a week for the whole family)
$50 – no miscellaneous cash purchases (snacks, fast food, etc.)
$80 – gas savings from one car living
Total Savings: $167
To recap, the goal this month was to try to squeeze down your budget to save an extra $1000 (or 10% of your income) over and above what you are already saving. We did this through reducing some spending, but also through finding ways to make some extra money. I also managed to save $200 by re-pricing our insurances, something everyone should do at least once a year.
Our extra savings total for the month: $1072
This is a sweet blessing going into the winter months. We already have an emergency fund, but to know that we have extra padding just helps you to feel a little more relaxed. It was also great to see that we can tighten down the hatches and find money if needed.
Sadly my children didn’t agree with the ease of this and have been begging for a sale on juice and snacks… and to eat out. Obviously we need to do a better job of showing them that many things in their lives are luxuries. Maybe we should spend our extra savings to take them on a mission trip to third world areas…
I do have more goals to continue putting extra money aside each month. We still have a few things to sell on craigslist, and also am working on switching our cell phone carrier to a much cheaper plan.
How has this month gone for you? Were you able to put some money aside? Share your joys (or frustrations) below in the comments or link to your savings.

Are you itching to get a new phone? The minute a big brand releases a new model, folks start scrambling to see where to get it and whether or not to change providers. I’ll confess I also jumped on that bandwagon. I’m due for an upgrade with Verizon, but I’m not loyal to anyone (loyalty just means you pay more generally). So for the past few weeks I’ve been digging to see who has the best rates possible.
We are in a unique situation, my phone many times is my internet. We live in the boonies and could have dial-up, satellite or 4G. Since you can’t run a website off dial-up and couldn’t work if it was raining on satellite we opt for 4G. I guess you could say Southern Savers is currently powered by Verizon… What that really means is that I need as much data as they’ll give me for the cheapest price!
Today AT&T announced that they were doubling data for FREE on plans 15GB or higher for anyone that signs up for a new contract or existing customers that call customer service. You need to call/sign up before 10/31/14 to get the free bonus. The double data bonus will continue forever for your plan as long as you don’t change plans.
This new announcement made me continue my search again this morning… just exactly what plan is the best??
Smartphone Data Plan Prices
So to break down the table for those that want it spelled out.
- If you need only one line: Sprint wins. It’s true unlimited data (vs. the two prepaid companies that will reduce your speeds after you reach the limits noted in the chart.)
- If you need multiple lines AT&T, T-Mobile and Sprint all come in with a plan at $100, but again Sprint’s is giving you more for that $100.
The real thing to realize is that no matter how you look at it… Verizon never wins. The problem though is service area. If you travel a ton you need to take into account what the network looks like for each provider. This is where Verizon usually wins, they know that and feel like price wise they don’t need to compete because of the strength of their network.
Want to take the leap and try out another plan?
Both T-Mobile and Sprint are offering to buy you of any any existing contract that you are in up to $350. You can get this in a Visa gift card or right off your next few bills. Note this is just for data plans and not for basic phones.
I would love to hear from folks on what plans you have and what you think about your network coverage etc.
