Shopping Yesterday

Our CVS had a coupon in sundays paper that if you transfered a script from any other pharmacy you got a 25 dollar gift card. HELLO free money. I had a list of had to gets. So thats what I did.
25 dollar gift card
2 pk of mens Deodarant 4.99
Denture powder glue (hubby will ONLY use this kind) 5.99
Aleve 20 gel caps 4.99 with a 1 dollar off coupon on the bottle so 3.99
4 cans of Chase and Sanborn coffee BOGO at 3.69 a piece.

So all that and I still have just over 2 dollars left. Since this was stuff we had to get I was excited to get it all for FREE basically!!!

UGHH

So on top of trying to save money. Im trying to lose weight too! Man did I blow it today. I cant even imagine how many calories I have eaten today... I know a whole 8 pk of cinnamon rolls has to be alot though! Oh well.... Starting this minute Im over it. Moving on. Not beating myself up. YA OK. Im awake now. But really Im moving past!

CVS

I keep reading all these blogs on CVS and keep thinking WOW how do they do that. Well in this sundays paper, there was a coupon for a 25 dollar gift card if you transfer a script there. Well either way I have to fill this script so I figured might as well transfer it to CVS. So tomorrow when I pick it up I will get a 25 dollar gift card!! YAY!

Im an Addict

Im totally addicted to freebies and samples! LOVE THEM! Not sure what my mail lady will think when they all start arriving but hey its FREE. I just hop around to blogs and click links, not to shabby.

Getting Started

So Im excited and confused! Im reading blogs on couponing like crazy, maybe too many. I clipped coupons out of this weeks paper today and clipped them all. Thats my first change, in the past I would just clip what maybe down the road sometime I would use. Today I clipped them all. I get that to get the best deal you have to wait and find the great sale to go with the coupon. What I dont get is where everyone I read gets all the coupons. How did everyone start? When you have NO coupons at all, how do you start???? Im sure I will learn! I even looked at the CVS ad today and I NEVER have been there! We shall see how this all works out! I am excited though to get started!

Shopping and Saving

I have been an avid blog reader for a long time. Here and there I have started my own blogs, just to get bored with them. Lately I have been moved to start saving, it seems everywhere God keeps showing me coupons! So today I started using them!!! I had 5 coupons for free items out of a magazine called ALL YOU. I got 25 dollars worth of food for free!!! We stocked up at a local store have a 12/10 sale on alot of items. Grand Total I spent 51 dollars and saved 56 dollars!!! Im so excited!
