This more than any week is really amazing to me. I cannot believe that I got all of this, even though it's not a lot, at such a great cost. It includes some high value items, like a new sweater, 5 packs of razors, nail polish, chicken, and I got it all for just above $30. I cannot believe it! I think it is really starting to hit me, this couponing thing. I am so blessed that I have been able to do this for my family and save so much money!! Going from over $100 a week on just essentials to about $75 a week to get the essentials and so much extra is amazing to me!! So if you are just starting out, stick with it, you will get better at it and see savings! I promise you, you will! And if it's not something you have tried yet, do! It does take some time but it is well worth it in the end. Look up couponing blogs in your area, so many of them do a lot of the work for you. Follow my blog, I hope it helps and I have three amazing blogs that I follow that help me so much each week, I would not be doing this well if it wasn't for them and their hard work! Get shopping and saving for you family!!
