My coupons sit unclipped for weeks and then I'd make all kinds of side trips to the store and get all messed up. If I would buckle down and follow the rules, it would save me a ton of money. <BR/><BR/>Now you've inspired me to pull on my big girl panties and just do it.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00892293258799500751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3619183385978665210.post-27183829409292967482008-02-13T13:10:00.000-05:002008-02-13T13:10:00.000-05:00I love the grocery game.

I know what I should be doing to save money, but it's good to have a financial pep rally every once in awhile.<BR/><BR/>I'm going to check out the grocery game and see if it could work for us. Our biggest money-saving strategy right now (until we pay off credit cards and some school loans) is that we don't have a car. I know we spend more money on groceries because we shop at the closest stores, not necessarily the cheapest. It definitely cuts back on impulse purchases because we have to walk home with whatever we buy!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746457722630081985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3619183385978665210.post-71067940816372021582008-02-13T10:52:00.000-05:002008-02-13T10:52:00.000-05:00You know, Mrs J,It gets me excited to read this po...You know, Mrs J,<BR/>It gets me excited to read this post, I am definately with you on the saving money part, but, HELLO!!! theres so much more, here. I have been thinking about the refi myself. I remember, waaay back in the day,(18 years) when BobVilla and I bought our first house, we were paying 11% interest. Bought that home for 35k--fixer, definately.. But now, I think I will check into getting some numbers. Good Idea, thanks for the little push..<BR/> The grocery game, now, this makes me a bit nervous, but I am going to dive into it anyway. I will put your email in so you can get the credit. Cross your fingers for me. Sometimes all that filing and organizing, well, I am artsy fartsy not an organized bone in the old bod.<BR/>thanks for the great post!<BR/>LisaSeaWorthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04935942280970143687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3619183385978665210.post-23625691034569891752008-02-13T10:43:00.000-05:002008-02-13T10:43:00.000-05:00I don't think this post was boring at all, Heather...I don't think this post was boring at all, Heather!!

She showed me her kroger reciept where she purchased $600 worth of groceries for about $200 total and I was hooked! I cant wait to get started.
