This Economy SUCKS

And with the fear of loosing my job at any moment, I've decided to save as much money as I can, while still contributing to the economy....so I am now a coupon cutter. Which, so far, has saved me a pretty penny, while filling the stomach of my household of 6.

Before, when the economy was fine, cutting coupons was a passing thought. To which I never did. I could kick myself in the behind for that, because I could of saved a LOT of money!! But now, with job losses going up, the price of everything going up, and my bank account the only thing that's shrinking, I've decided to put a belt around my bank account, and get it in gear.

So, there's a couple of websites that i've joined, to help me on my money saving crusade....

www.grocerygame.com I spend $15 every 8 weeks, for this nice person to make me a list every Friday, for the 2 stores that I shop at, of everything that's on sale for that week, and where the coupons are located for me to save even more. Everything is spelled out in terms that anyone can understand. They also have this great message board in case you have any questions.

www.couponmom.com is another great site. This one also posts lists up, and it's free!! The only downside is that the list only shows what's on the flier where as the other one shows sales that aren't even posted.

www.smartsource.com is a good place to go to for printable coupons, for grocery stores and regular stores.

www.redplum.com is another one for great coupons.

Since doing all of this, which has only been a week, I can honestly say that i've saved about $150 on my grocery bills, and I would advise anyone that's trying to save money to do it as well.....

Well, until my next shopping day, which will be Saturday...have a great one!
