{getting back into couponing} days 5, 6 and 7~clip and shop!

extreme couponing, bandwagonWell, here we are, wrapping up the first week of the new year. One of my resolutions is to get back into saving money on my groceries, pay attention to what I’m buying, pay more attention to what we’re wasting and overall just be a better shopper. It takes time, it takes effort, but I think the savings I will see are significant and worth the time and effort.

So if you’ve been with us since Day 1, we are now at Day 5. And today’s task, and the task f0r tomorrow and the next day…. clip your coupons and shop!

We should be all ready–we cleaned out our pantries, we looked at the sales ads, we planned our meals for the week, so now it’s clip today’s coupons, complete your list and go.

This week, I’m choosing Superfresh. I go back and forth between Superfresh and Acme, usually going to Acme. But I like the P&G deal they have and the cereal is a good price. Since I don’t need much–just milk and produce and a few other things, Superfresh is just a better choice.

Another thing I’m going to try to resolve to do–shop alone. Even if it means I go at night when I’m tired, I’m going by myself. My kids just really mess up my deals and couponing mojo and I can’t think.

Have a great week!
