    Count me in! However, I don't count ECB's so my total will be lower.

    So far this month:
    CVS $0.88
    Walgreens $5.75
    Walmart $3.10

    I'm in - coupons are not as fruitful in Canada as they are in the US, but I do occasionally manage to wrangle a store to pay me a cent or two to take an item off their shelves! Happens all the time in the US, but is so rare here (at least it is here in my area

    I've never kept track of my coupons savings though so I'm totally ready to start to do so now.

    Thanks for the challenge!

    Well, as my status says, I'm clipping coupons like a crazy woman tonight. I had such a HUGE backlog of coupons that I just didn't get to in December with the holidays so I'm tackling those tonight.

    I did save a few dollars w/ my shopper card earlier this week when I went in for some emergency items. I'll have to locate that receipt in my purse for the exact amount saved. That's it so far this month...these no-spend days help overall but it takes awhile between postings about savings!
    May Goals:
    Only $300 for groceries this month - $206/$300
    Monthly coupon/valued customer savings = $14.08
    No wasted food!
    Stick to budget!
    Track spending DAILY
    Get checkbook balanced
    Save $200 toward EF: $85/$200

    2012 FV Challenges: Try New Recipes Challenge: 22/52, Menu Planning Challenge: 21/52, Grocery Reduction Budget Challenge, Change Jar Challenge: $27.81 as of 1-14-12, Lose A Pound A Week Challenge: 3/48, No Wasted Food Challenge

    2012 Goals

    1. To pay off CC (only $917.15 left!) and never again charge more than I can pay off each month.
    2. Snowball the CC payment into Sears Credit Card bill (no interest) and get it paid off ASAP.
    3. Snowball the CC and Sears card payments into hospital bill (due w/ Baby #2 via C-section in mid-January). Pay that off ASAP.4. Snowball payments into DH's student loan (as of 12/4/11 there's still $4770.84 remaining). Pay off by 12/31/12.
    5. Keep our grocery budget to $300 each month.
    6. Use Dave Ramsey's budget sheet and get on track with this each pay period.
    7. Get and keep checkbook balanced and keep an eye (weekly if not daily) on our e-statements.
    8. Get savings account up to $8,000 (incl. emergency fund)
    9. Make 2 Christmas gifts per month: 0/24.
    10. Get our home organized: use a receipt book, keep my coupon organizer in check, have a touch-once policy for paper (touch once and then file or toss).
    11. Achieve "give or get" goal of $1500 for the board I serve on by 9/30/12.
