    Default My pre-fall kick off

    This past weekend was my back on track kick off...Friday i went grocery shopping budget is $183 for Sept i had $10.10 worth of coupons so i spent $79.00. I am hoping these groceries will last for at least two weeks. I will need to go to the store for bread.

    I stayed home all weekend which saved on gas.

    Today i went to cvs to get the deals and i had $2.20 in coupons.

    for under $5 for my stockpile i got a small dawn for $0.77 and two tubes of toothpaste for $3.58. I also received another cvs extra care buck after buying 4 vitamin water (one of my weaknesses)

    I am so proud of my accomplishments this weekend and thought i would share with you because i know it helps me to hear your stories. Happy September

    Great going!! Just found out this weekend that our Longs Drugstores ( which was bought out by CVS) - will honor cvs cards - or whatever they are - anyway - I went online to sign up and the card will be here in two weeks. I don't know what it means, I only know that I was envious reading about all the great deals found by FVers - maybe I can now participate too in these savings
    Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.
