I love saving money

I am a stay at home mom.  I like to contribute to our financials by saving money for our family.  I am the accountant in the home, I always use coupons when I can, and I am a bargain shopper.  Even if I was a bazillionaire, I would shop a deal!  It just makes sense to me, and I have the time and energy to get it done. 

I have saved a lot of time and money by getting organized with my coupons and looking through the Sunday ads.  I blogged about my solution for organizing coupons here.

This week, with the push of a friend, I started shopping the Walgreens and CVS deals.  I have them both about 2 minutes away, and they are across the street from each other.  These were my savings for the week...

CVS:


3 boxes of cereal
2 dish soaps
1 feminine product
1 toothpaste
2 deoderants

Total:  $13.09
Saved:  $15.72
ECB's on next future purchases:  $4.77 (so basically got everything for $8)


WALGREENS:


8-pack paper towels
1 box kleenex
2 bubble mailers
4 count razors
1 scotch tape
1 dental picks

Total:  $12.96
Register Rewards for future visit:  $5.00 (so essentially I got it all for about $8)

Not bad for just getting started!  What deals have you scored this week?
