Saving Money as a Daily Part of you Life

Some of you might think that couponing and deal finding is just for the Groceries but as you begin to find these great deals you will notice things you can do in ever aspect of your life that will save a little bit here and a little bit there and soon you will be saving money wherever and whenever you go somewhere.

Here is an example-this is how my kids and I's day went....

*Swim Lessons for Chloe
*Stop at Riteaid for a few Items
-I used coupons of course and spent $6.74 oop but will be getting $8 back in Rebate form
*Stop at Taco Bell to get a drink
-used a coupon for a free Limeade Fresca and paid nothing out of pocket-we all shared
*Went to Grandpa's so Tanner could mow the lawn
*Picked up a pizza and breadsticks at Hungry Howies' Pizza
-used a free pizza coupon from my dixie direct book and only paid $3.74 for the breadsticks
*Went to Great Grandma's and ate and then swam in the Swimming pool we picked up at a Yard Sale.
*planned for Family Night tonight-a trip to Fiesta Fun
-using two free coupons for the bumper boats(each good for two people-also from our dixie direct book) and the kids report cards (they give tokens for every A or B) so this will mean free bumper boats and games-Fun Times!

As you can see we still did a lot and had fun but spent very little money to do everything we did.
IF you keep saving a little here and a little there before you know it you will be saving everywhere you go.
