Couponing

So Monika has got me hooked! I have been couponing now for two weeks and am already looking forward to Saturday to get the paper and see what things are on sale. The past two weeks we have saved $30 or more each time and have received 2-4 Free items! I suggest this to everyone, it's quick, fun and saves you $$$$$$.

the site that makes this so great is www.thegrocerygame.com you can do a free trial, but then I think it is $5 a month (which I think will be worth it, I haven't signed up yet but plan on it)

This site lets you choose what store you want to shop at, and then will have a list of all the items that are good deals that week. It will categorize them from ok deals (might as well if your going to buy it anyway), stock up on them deals, & (my favorite) Free Items.

It will break it down to what the item normally cost, then the sale the store is having, what manufactured coupon you need (it even directs you to the date it came out and the place to find it), and what the end cost will be.

You can select items from the "Master List" that you want and then it will make a new list of just what you selected.

Anyway....All yall should try it!!!!!

Smores

So two weeks ago Brett and I really were itching to go camping......so we finally had a weekend were we didn't have obligations. The only down side was it probably wasn't the best weekend to go, it was supposed to rain, but we decided to be troopers and still go. We went to Hunstville State Park and we found these camp sites with "shelters" (see below pics) so we jumped all over that!!! It was fun...but cold....we struggled to get the camp fire going because of the wind, but Brett being the man that he is got it going enough that we could have SMORES!!!!!! That's the best part of camping.


SMORES!!!!
