Monday, March 7. Another Victory at the Grocery Store. Oh what fun my shopping trip with mom was today! Let's see.we hit up Acme first. But, let me tell you about the trip to Acme on Saturday! I STOCKED up on meat that was marked down! I found EIGHT packages of ground turkey on sale for 2 for $5.00 WITH a $1.00 off coupon on each of them! I won't be buying ground turkey for awhile. I also picked up two packages of pork chops - each with $1.00 off coupons! I hit the clearance freezer for some single-serve...

Monday, March 28. Pretty Good" Shopping Trip. So, I did pretty good this week at Shoprite. I still stayed well under our budget, but I spent more than $5! I knew that I wouldn't be breaking any records this week and accepted that before I walked in the door of the store. Here's what's on the menu this week:. Monday - Not cooking because of Weight Watchers and I have a workshop. Tuesday - Pan-Seared Chicken with Garlic Sauce. Friday - Not cooking because I have a workshop. Saturday - Chicken Pockets.

Monday, March 21. Another Week of Groceries Under $5! Well, I'm SO glad I shop with my mom. My brain was so exhausted from this weekend, that I forgot how some of my coupons work! She reminded me that $5 of my coupons needed to be used on Kraft, Nabisco, and Coke products - none of which were on my list. Thank goodness I take along my coupon binder because I was quickly able to pull out additional coupons to combine with the items I needed to "buy" for free. Here's what I got. 1 Garlic - $.44. 20 Off bec...

Clips – My Work Syndicated. Rock the Vote – Fish and Otherwise. Election Night 2008 – a Triumph of Hope over Fear. November 5, 2008. We walked to Oak Street in Chinatown and were excited to see the longest line we’ve seen there. As we moved closer, we saw that it actually snaked around the block! But this is what this election is about. It’s about how things might be, it’s about hope, it’s about seeing the best in our selves and saying. When they show the tapes of the Civil Rights movement: the fire hose...

Monday, April 4. Another Great Shopping Trip! Well gang, I did it again! Saved TONS of money at the grocery store. I even took a picture of all of the goodies I got! Yes, I know, I'm turning into one of THOSE women. I picked up $134.39 in groceries for $57.65. That's a 57% savings. I also got $10 in coupons on future purchases AND mom gave me $7 more for purchasing a few items for her. So, I really only spent $50.65. We hit Acme and Shoprite this week. I totally cashed in on some great deals. FREE gallon...

So, here's what I purchased:. 2 lemons (80 cents). 1/2 Gallon of Milk. I only ...

Monday, February 21. Shopping Success and Frugal Hawaii. I wanted to take a moment to let you know how my life in frugality is progressing! Right around $2000 - that's food, rental car, baggage fees, souvenirs, etc. Not bad! We hit grocery stores for PopTarts, Granola Bars, milk, bananas, and soda instead of hitting the $50 breakfast buffet (although we did go on our last day). I don't think either of us felt like we sacrificed anything on the trip! I'd like to think that Hawaii was free. Go us! NowAcme ...
