I MISS YA'LL...

I've been missin' my blogger friends lately...but I've been in the woods from sun up to sun down for a couple of weeks now. I love hunting MORELS! Been finding them by the gallons this year...best year in a LONG time!!! Havin' a blast...I'll be back in a week or two :) By the way, I'm only ONE Follower away from my bunny giveaway!! Very excited to hit the big 100! See you soon!

Coupon Shopping Trip

ok...I finally did it! I went coupon shopping today!! My total bill came to $111.50 and I only paid $80.24 after $31.26 of coupons and ad~matching was deducted. I saved over 28%...and that's pretty darn good for me. It was actually kinda fun...and it felt great to save my family money :) It didn't really take THAT long to get it all organized...maybe next time it'll take even less. Monday night my church had Misty from The Frugal Family give a couponing class, and I really learned alot from her. Then I watched Extreme Couponing this week..WOW!..they are EXTREME!! I'll never have a supply stored up like they do...I don't even want to! I won't spend an hour a day doing it, but I will spend an hour a week to save. It's a great way to save money on groceries and household items and get my daughter's college fund built up.
