Shopping on a Sunday

Not much shopping today, due to the flood a d NFL season opener for the Cowboys. I made it to CVS. I bought a colgaye toothpaste at 2.99 and two boxes of cheerios at 2/6.00. I used 1.75 worth of coupons, a 4$ extra buck, so out of pocket I spent 3.74. I also got four extra bucks back. No money maker, but a good day. You can find the whole list of goodies at www.iheartcvs.com. Let me know what you found!

Cvs trip

I finally made it back to CVS. I was out of extra bucks, so I started all over- not a bad trip, though. I had a 4/20 from my email so my trip was:

Two degree deodorants that were 2/15, then I had two 2$ off coupons. I also bought two Aussie styling products @2.99 each, minus two 1$ off coupons-

Spent 12$ out of pocket and earned 9 extra bucks, pretty good way to start over! Let me know how you did!

Menu planning

One of my best money saving tips is menu planning- this one simple step is a lifesaver. I make my menus based on what I have in my pantry and what is on sale. I also am following weight watchers, so I am using a lot of their recipes. And yes, it is possible to eat healthy for less. Here is my menu for the week:

Monday: sandwiches after softball game madness.
Tuesday: mexican dip: taco meat, corn, rotel tomatoes, refried beans and tortillas
Wednesday: crockpot chicken with broccoli and cauliflower
Thursday: turkey burgers with ww fries.

If you menu plan, please leave a link!

VocalPoint

I just wanted to let you know about a great mailing list I am now on. It's www.vocalpoint.com, and just about once a month they will send either a super great coupon for a new item, or a try me free. The last one I got was 2.50 off a Bounce Dryer bar and 4 1.00 off coupons. Definitely worth your time!

Trying again

Ok, I know I've said numerous times I am back, but this time I am going to try and make it work. It helps me stay on track and help my family, and hopefully I can help others along the way.

So here we go! My coupons are a mess after Kroger double coupon day yesterday- I got 80 dollars of groceries for 8 bucks :D Yippee Kroger! I hope they do that more often- the manager yesterday said that they were looking to do this once a quarter. It was great!

So I am going to blog on Shopping on a Sunday and will try to blog two other days a week. I am also going to link to CVS, Walgreens (grrrrr), and Target and any other amazing deals that I stumble upon during the week. I may also come on to ramble on occasion!

Hope everyone has a great Sunday,
