In my quest for frugal new, I also have been concentrating on my personal accessories. This has inspired me to use my talents to buy beauty products for the outside as well as the inside. Most of my coupons have been used to buy groceries. For the month of March, my discounts have not been deep. It seems like I find most of the deals toward the end of the month, rather than the beginning. I started out buying vitamins. For the past several months, Kmart, Walgreen’s ...
I have doubled my efforts to save more and spend less this year. A new saving pattern for myself and my household. So far, our furnance needed repair. We need some major car repairs which we have already estimated to be about $650.00. I had some extra insurance taken out of my check, so I do not have as much money to pay with.

Today, I was able to buy five gift sets of perfume from Hedi Klum and Beyonce for 20.00. Walgreens had a 50% off sale. I brought two sets at 10.00 down from 19.99 and three sets at 7.49 down from 14.99. The origninal price came to 45.00. I had 5, five dollar coupons off for each of the sets. My total was 20.00. I found two more coupons an I plan to go to another Walgreens for other sets. Not bad, not bad at all. I will report back with my other findings. Stay tune.

Being single parent and low paying jobs kept me from buying presents for my children and family. During those early years, thank God for my family. They would buy my children presents so that they would have something under the tree. I will have always love them for that. It wasn't until I started selling ...
I have always been a magazine nut. I would have at least 2-5 subcriptions and still would constantly buy magazines. I love all types of magazines, crafting, cooking, decor, general, gossip, educational. you name it, I would read it Besides my other habits, magazines rank right up there in the top 5. I have become more obessive since the show extreme couponing has aired. I find all kinds of coupons, tip and information in magazines. I stopped buying magazines for a while since the price has ...
