$10 for...
OK so I don't mean to only blog about couponing but I think I had my best deal last night. I was looking through my normal couponing blogs at 10:00 p.m. and realized there was a sale that was only good yesterday so after much debate I ran to the store and this is what I got for $10.38...
10 boxes of kellogg's cereal
1 gallon of milk
1 package of orbit gum
10 orchards juices
and $10 to spend on my next trip.
Total savings $59.50 or 83%
This is so fun for me. I get so excited doing this wouldn't you?

Couponing
What I have learned so far:
While I have only been couponing for a little over two weeks I feel like I have learned a lot. I never new there was so much to learn. I have learned the lingo and what all the acronimns stand for. I have learned what a catalina was and how to use it. I have learned what a doubler was. I have found many wonder couponing blogs that know the really great deals. Most important I have learned how to combine deals and coupons to get lots of free stuff.
I love this and just wish I had known how to do it sooner.
My most recent savings include 8 orchard juices and 2 boxes of bagel bites for $7.30 while getting back $10 to spend on my next shopping trip. So I kindof made $2.70. :)
I bought a lot that day. I went to Walgreens and bought 6 boxes kleenex, 4 kotex boxes, 3 aluminum foil, 3 landry detergents all for $20.59 plus I still have 5 more dollars to spend next time I go in. according to them my savings was $28.38
At Target I got a bag of Halls and 2 things of cereal for $0.39 That was fun!
At Albertsons I bought 15 boxes of fruit snacks, 2 muffin mix, 2 macroni grill pastas, 2 wanchai box dinners, 1 box of cereal all for $21.75 according to them I saved $52.23 (Not my best and as of today the fruit snacks are on sale and combined with coupons and deals you could get them for $0.10 a box and I paid $1.8 a box. That frustrated me but oh well.

Lydia is 8
My dear sweet Lydia is 8. I can't believe it. I feel so grateful to have her in my life. She is a wonderful blessing. She is beautiful, caring, fun, caring, creative, smart, and athletic. She makes a wonderful oldest child. She is super helpful to me. She takes such good care of her siblings. I cannot express how much I love her in words. I hope that I can be the mom that she needs and deserves.
Love ya Lydia - Mom
Math Literacy Fair/Carnival
We just went to our annual math literacy fair and had a great time. I volunteered to run a booth and I graciously told Joe he had to me too. We did have a great time though. We played a Spiderman game where players picked a character and rolled some dice. They had to add or multiply the numbers together to move up the building to rescue Mary Jane. Corbin absolutely loved this game.
They had other games there such as bingo, bean bag toss, arcade basketball, and many more. We also had an author come and talk to the kids. DARE officer, Love and Logic reps., and many more. The door prizes consisted of and ipod shuffle and $10 gift certificates. Lydia won a gift certificate. (And I had everyone sing to her.) All in all it was a very great time.
Oh yeah and we had pizza!
