My Savings
PostedThis week was not a big shopping week. Once again it was nice to take some time off from coupons. There are no inserts in today's paper, and the store sales were disappointing considering it's Labor Day weekend. We just got some snacks for football season and a few essentials at Bi-Lo.

*Not the greatest shopping trips, but there were things we needed like OJ and TP that I unfortunately didn't have coupons for. Plus fresh deli meat adds up, but lasts for lunches the entire week. I was still under budget for this week!
*You have probably noticed that I haven't done much drug store shopping lately. There are 2 reasons for that. 1-the sales have been slacking. I am hoping around the holidays they will pick up again. 2-I need to deplete my stockpile! I have no more room for toothpaste, body wash or shampoo! These are the most common items to go on sale, but we just don't need them! By not drug store shopping I have saved $10/week since that's my allotted amount.
*I am also going to start adding a new post of what I got free for that week. Things that come by mail or I have found in other stores besides grocery/drug stores.
