Disbelief

I can't believe how fast this semester has gone. I'm kind of shocked that we are into week 13. I'm very glad though. I'm ready for christmas break. Well, you are going to see a lot from me this week. I forgot to blog last week, so i'm going to blog 4 times this week to make up for it. Even if I don't get credit for it, I still do the assignment that was assigned.

So my local grocery store, Summerfresh, had a great deal going on Saturday and Sunday this last week. They were doubling coupons up to $1. That never happens. So I got all of my coupons out and went to the store Friday night to map everything out. There were a bunch of other people there as well, so I knew I would have to get there early. I got there about 20 minutes early and luckily I was the first person in the store. I only ended up not getting one item. 2 girls decided to completely clear the shelf of some uncle ben's boxes of rice that I was going to get for $.49. I asked if they could spare a couple and they said no. I moved on and got everything else I wanted. It was a great grocery trip. I ended up getting $150 worth of groceries for $35! Needless to say when I walked in with bags and bags and my hubby found out how much I spent, he was so excited. I love my coupons.

My husband is starting to get a little relief. He has been going to a chiropractor about every other day since the neurosurgeon hasn't scheduled his appt yet. He can walk a little straighter and is feeling a little better.

Some also very exciting news.....Since I've started couponing I've saved my family a ton of money. For my hard work and effort, my husband bought me a brand new Toyota 4Runner. I've never had a new vehicle in my life and I'm so excited about it. The payments aren't too high because we had a lot of equity in my other vehicle.

Until next time.....

  1. Congratulations on the new vehicle! I would rather spend my money on that than groceries any day.
