"Frugal is the new BLACK!"

My new favorite saying is, "FRUGAL IS THE NEW BLACK!" I am now officially a "Couponing Mom". I was inspired by my good friends Courtney and Adelle. I cut coupons, do the CVS and Wallgreens thing, and have saved a TON of money the last month while doing so. I am not buying it unless its on sale and I have a coupon for it. Ok well it at least has to be on sale. We have cut way back on eating out, and if we have, its been with a coupon. It is almost addicting! Here's to saving money!

Sometimes I think we are the same soul just split into opposite ends of Mesa. I totally have been doing the coupons lately, and yes it is addicting. I feel like such a house frau, but everytime I get my receipt that tells me how much I saved I call to brag to Court about it immediately!

Do you make the collage on photobucket? And do you make it that size the same way as any other pic?

You are looking amazing BTW!

Ok, the picture montage is just the funniest thing. You're hilarious. I NEED to get on the coupon boat, I've been saying that forever, and yet, I just don't seem to be getting it done. Teach me?

Welcome to the couponing club! Once you enter, you may never pay full price for ANYTHING again! Ha ha ha! It is truly addicting!

Linz, I have a girl in my ward that posts every week about her favorite deals and she tells what coupons will work, etc. Her blog is azdealsbyallison.blogspot.com hope this helps. I hope that when my life calms down a little I can get on the coupon boat but right now I am lucky to get to Walmart and grab stuff and then get home.:) Good luck!

I REALLY need to jump on that bandwagon...and soon! I have no time, so I haven't done it yet. However, I'm going to try and get into it this summer, and hope that by the time next school year comes around I'll be a pro! :)
