New Direction

This blog was originally intended to keep family and friends updated on our daily happenings. It also allowed me a place to let my feelings out in word form. I have such an easier time writing it than saying it but, in the current financial situation our family is in, I have decided to start following more coupon saving blogs, learning new ways to save for my own home and hopefully pass the savings on to those who are interested.

In the next few weeks, this blog will be undergoing a make-over to get a streamlined process for how I want to post, what I want to post etc.

It is very exciting to me that I just started using coupons a little over a month ago and went to 2 different stores tonight and only spent $13.29 and got the following.

6 cans of Chunky Soup
1 box of Apple Jacks
1 3 pack of Dentyne gum
1 single pack of Dentyne gum
2 packs of Mentos gum
1 Kashi frozen meal
2 Bumblebee Tuna kits
1 Card
1 Gift for my nephew
1 package mailer
1 Cremora coffee creamer

I know a month ago I would have spent $1.98 a can for the soup alone which would have been around $12.00 therefore all the rest is almost a freeby. I can surely get used to grocery shopping like this.

That is the reason I think I am taking this blog in new directions so, I can pass on the savings to others!

More to come....
