on a good sunday afternoon, i can typically be found on our couch clipping coupons from the paper. call me an old lady or lame or whatever, but i enjoy saving us money when i can. it is no trouble to buy a paper or cut a few coupons, but it is nice seeing my total go down at the grocery store for doing practically nothing!

i finally got into swagbucks this summer and racked up enough of them to buy a couple of amazon gift cards. the gift cards went toward the 6th and final season of LOST on blu-ray...picture of that delivery to come soon!

everyone knows i love a good deal so it should come as little surprise that i am admitting to shopping the gap outlet 4th of july sales twice in 5 days. i saved a killer amount of money and bought stuff for lots of people. i realize i should have photographed everything i saved on, but i was too excited to think of that and only snapped a picture of the bag!

after being gone for three weeks, we had no food to eat in the apartment. after some serious coupon clipping, i set out to restock our kitchen. i saved....$45!!!! oh man, it still gets me excited to think about it. i know i might be a dork because of this, but i am a dork who saved $45 on groceries :)

i'm a nerd, i know. i have developed a hobby for couponing. i love the idea of saving money by simply taking the time to cut a few coupons out of the paper. i totally make back the cost of buying the paper (which should be no one's excuse not to coupon). plus, i can print them from these great websites as well! i love that some of my favorite stores for groceries & household items (target and walgreens) have their own store coupons too because you can "stack" a store and manufacturer coupon and get a great deal sometimes.

i took a tip (one of many) from my mom and bought a coupon organizer. this little beauty makes shopping so much easier because i always have it with so i cannot forget any coupons, and i can keep them organized by food, bathroom items, paper products, etc. love it!
