Couponing and my January savings so far
Many people say they do not have time to save a few pennies, but if you value your time and money, the small amount of time you use clipping and scanning newspaper ads for specials, can truly save you tons of money each month! This is my savings for January so far. I used my savings to splurge and buy me some scrapbooking supplies. We have a group that saves hundreds when we shop! It is free money if you only use it!
Post your savings here... for example, some of my latest savings were:
Amount Spent is actual money I paid, Amount Saved is including couopons and specials in store
CVS receipt: Amount Spent:$24.82 Amount Saved $224.34
CVS receipt: Amount Spent:$1.22 Amount Saved:$11.74
CVS receipt: Amt. Spent:$64.42 Amt. Saved:$91.48
Walgreens receipt: Amt. Spent:$18.18 Amt. Saved:$35.50
Krogers receipt:Amt. Spent:$77.10 Amt. Saved:$25.03
CVS receipt: Amt. Spent:$4.47 Amt. Saved:$4.50
The break down is like this: I spent in these stores $190.21
I saved in these stores $392.59
So, instead of spending $582.80 like I used to before coupons, I cut my groceries down by almost $400!
