I am planning a trip. Another shopping trip. Unfortunately, if my husband finds out he may hurt me. He carried in a lot of bags for me over the weekend. I don't think he's come to the realization that I haven't spent anywhere near what I normally spend on groceries.
I have $250 budgeted every 2 weeks for groceries. I'm sure a lot of "professional" couponers could live off less than that in a month, but I'm just getting started here. Give me a break. I only spent about $150 over the weekend and I was able to purchase several items in multiple. (Does that even make sense? I was able to purchase several of the same item to put in my "stockpile".)
What I want to try now is the drugstore rewards. I get the concept, but I don't want to buy stuff that I don't need just to get the rewards. I am scanning over the Rite Aid and CVS ads for this week and comparing them to my coupons.
This is almost like a game to me. I enjoy it. If I had unlimited funds, I think I would actually take more time and plan more elaborate trips. Let's just hope I am good at this game and I don't end up on the losing end.
