    Talking Proud of Myself!! Today was my Frugal Spending Day!

    Two Ate Lunch for $4.88!!
    Went to McDonald's today and my mom and I got 2 Big Macs, an ice water, large mello yello and large fries (we shared) for only $4.88 with a coupon.

    Shopped and spent only $21.00!!
    24 pack Mtn Dew
    Gallon of water
    2 Tropicana OJ's - On Sale 2 for $5 and had $1.00 off coupon
    4- 15 ct. Pizza Rolls - On Sale $1 each and had $.60 off coupon
    Arm and Hammer Toothpaste - On Sale $2 and had $.60 coupon
    Laura's Lean Beef - On Sale 2.99 a pound (I know this beef is
    higher than regular beef, but super greasy beef at dinner
    time upsets my stomach all night)
    Store Brand Dozen Eggs - On Sale $.79
    Confectioner's Sugar
    Baking Powder

    I'm just tickled to death about spending under $30 for this much stuff! The coupons came from online sites. Does anyone else print coupons? Can you recommend some good sites?

    here are some helpful coupon sites

    www.smartsource.com (printable coupons)
    www.coolsavings.com (printable coupons)

    i know of a few other websites, but you have to pay for the coupons (like $.05 each, but its well worth it) pm me if you would like those websites

    What a day! But I have to admit I'm a little envious -- online coupons! None of the stores around here will take them anymore. There's been too much fraud.

    So what can I say -- you're both lucky and smart! A winning combo for sure.
