New Year's Resolution
Save Money!!!
Today I realized that I have never followed thru on a New Years' Resolution until this year :( This year I vowed to save more money and I most certainly have! I've been so happy with the results that it makes up for all my previously failed resolutions :)
My very first coupon mission....
(Sidenote: I also resolved to lose a few pounds and let's just say I'm still working on that lol)
"Everything pictured here only cost me $15!!!!!
(Yes! Only fifteen bucks! Total MSRP = $133) Starting the new year
right, saving money and hopefully losing a few lbs. :)" 1/6/12
At my one month mark of couponing I gathered together all of my receipts to see how I did and I was beyond proud of myself...take a look at what I wrote...
"Just realized that today marks one month exactly that I've been
"couponing" so I decided to tally up my savings and see how I did - it's
hard to believe but I've purchased nearly $1000 in merchandise and
saved about 82% by only spending $180 out of pocket (which includes
three pairs of shoes which cost $180 regular retail by themselves!! :))
Once I can pull off a major grocery haul I can officially be crowned a
"Coupon Queen" - Martin's get ready! :)" - 2/4/12
To date, I still have not tackled Martin's but then again I may not need to - Kroger has shown me just as much if not more in savings :)
I wanted to share with you some of my coupon adventures in hopes of inspiring you - you will be amazed at what you can do too...Enjoy!
