I kept thinking i'd do something special for my 100th post... but that means a little extra effort at the moment... and this too has been something i've wanted to post about...
Ways to Save Money... i do several differnt things to save us money. One of which is cutting coupons. These days though it's not just cutting them, it's uploading them to your store card(s), and printing them off line, as well as getting the Sunday paper(s).
I thought I'd just post a few links that i've found helpful in hopes it may help someone else save a little here and there!
If you shop at Kroger, Foodlion or CVS check this page out:
http://southernsavers.com/
She also gives you the upcoming insert deals- very cool!
She will tell you what is on sale for the week and what coupons are available for those products. If there are printable coupons for the product, she puts the link right there so you can print it off.
The CVS link on Southern Saver is wonderful! She gives you "Deal Ideas" and then also at the bottom of each weeks post she'll tell you what her plan is for the week- she rarely spends any money there - but walks out with lots of product!
Also- if you're a CVS shopper- or want to be; here is a link to a great blog entry entitled CVS 101
http://www.thethriftymama.com/2008/08/cvs-101.html
This entry will give you the basics of How To Shop at CVS!
I get FREE stuff at CVS every week! If I can't use it, i always know someone that can!
If you are a Walmart Shopper check out:

Also- Kroger again- you can upload P&G coupons to your Kroger Card.
At Kroger you can double coupons up to 50 cents PLUS use the coupons you've uploaded to your Kroger Card for more savings! Go to:

If you want to save a small percentage on purchase at 100s of different stores (including Martins and Kroger and lots of online stores) for a college fund go to:

Aside from coupons there are a couple of blogs that I've found to be a good source for coupon information and freebies and current deals, they are:
http://www.5dollardinners.com/
http://www.thethriftymama.com/
http://frugalisfab.blogspot.com/
Just remember, buy on sale and with a paper coupon, and an e-coupon and you can walk out with them giving you money!
I use to think that Sharp Shopper was my best deal on several items... I've learned that if a grocery store has it on sale and I have a coupon for it... lots of times I can get it cheaper there! Now, for certain - there will always be items I can get cheaper at Sharp Shopper or Finders Keepers....but I have to keep an open mind and play the game from now on to get the best deal! I use to think Kroger and Martins were the most expensive grocery stores in town, that is probably true if you just run in...but if you're a planner you can get things cheaper there when they are on sale and with a double coupon, than you can any where else!
I hope some of these links helps someone out there!
Happy coupon-ing!
p.s.- the next P&G Savers will come in the Feb. 1st-OOPS that's the 8th paper (around here that is Richmond Times and Staunton News Leader papers)
