I Quit - sort of.....

For almost 3 years I have spent ~$15/mo. (over $500+) for my CouponSense subscription. I have recently found a plethora of websites, let alone, RSS feeds that give me all the info I need. Now, I don't really understand what RSS Feeds are....all I know is that I get LOTS of updates in my gReader & those updates keep me "pumped" & motivated to save $$$. Online I can find all the match-up deals, printable coupons, specials, catalinas & more...without paying! So saving $500+ may not sound like THAT much....but there's lots of things I could do with $500+....cute platforms & a handbag!

Anyhow, as I was saying....saving $$$. I get such a total thrill out of saving $ on things I need. (Drives me crazy to see those crazy coupon people buying all the things they don't even need.) Do understand, I am highly competitive - ask my hubby about playing Monopoly with me. Also, I don't buy all the processed, packaged foods that are many of the coupons offered. I use my coupons to buy toothbrushes/floss, deodorant, cleaners, sunscreen, scotch tape, hair product for the kiddos & more. Oh wait, I got a GREAT deal last week at Target on Morningstar Chik'N Nuggets - so I do buy some frozen goodies.

So I quit my CouponSense...and as I type my hubby is shopping cars online & stressing about getting a deal. I'm already thinking about how he can get a better deal....

About Me

My photo
I am a wife, a mom, a daughter & friend trying to journey the best path in life. My goals are: Great wife, Fabulous mom, and Good community member. I am overly critical and hard on myself. I am fearful (like everyone else) & do my best to show strength. I am striving to be stronger, kinder & more understanding in my day-to-day life. I love my husband completely & love being on "our team" together. Another goal...get closer to God (or whatever you want to call him/her). I want stronger faith in my life & I have people who are inspiring me in that area.
