Vacation and savings!

I have been on vacation for 2 weeks and I brought my coupons with me. If you had told me 2 months ago I would actually PACK coupons, I would have laughed in your face and told you YAH right!! BUT! I have saved almost $200, while here, just on groceries (and using Target card) at least! Tonight alone, I saved $21 and some change! That means that for the formula I purchased, I paid for one and got one free basically. How cool is that! And the $$ I saved the other day "paid for" Mom's new vacuum!

Life is good :)

Had to get some things from WM...

without coupons.... UGH!

Later this week, I'll be going through my q to make a trip up to Fry's for our time here at Mom's :)

I am missing my coupons!!

$aving$$

Got a notice that our loan has been adjusted to reflect the 6% interest rate - instead of 11! I have a few more phone calls to finish up this week, but we should be making excellent progress in the savings arena!!!

woohoooooo!

So behind!

The GOOD thing is, I haven't had to grocery shop in about 3 weeks - woohooooo! The bad thing is, I'm way behind on my couponing! This week, since I'm almost finished with this term, I'll have more time to get my binder together. I'm taking it with us to AZ, so that while we're there if we need anything I'll be all set :) I have to get my coupons together for the girls on FB and get those out this week!

It's been a month!

After adding up all totals, it looks like we saved just over $400 the month of May! We're hoping to beat that in June :) I'll be off the blog for a big while Brian prepares to head out -
