Well, I have been shopping for groceries by the month for 2 months now. I really like it because I only have to go shopping (hardcore) once a month. I also like it because I feel like I am saving a little money. Here’s the problem…I have started shopping more with coupons at CVS and Walgreens and Walmart and now I realize that I will have to go grocery shopping more often or I won’t get the deals that I would get if I shopped each week or every other week. So, I am planning to go shopping this next time for a two week period. I have to admit–only shopping once a month was spoiling me BIG TIME! There are things that I can still buy in “bulk” that won’t matter, but there are other things that I can save money on (and plan to).
I have to give a special “Thank You” to my friend at AJandCompany for inspiring me to earn Extra Care Bucks at CVS and save a little money. So far it has gotten me about 5 bottles of tylenol (generic) and a man’s speedstick for free! I am planning on mastering this game pretty quickly. I am enjoying it too! Here is AJ’s website if you would like to take a peek: http://www.freewebs.com/ajandcompany/
This girl makes her own laundry detergent!! I am so impressed!
Anyway, just thought I would share with you my new plan to shop for 2 weeks worth of groceries. I’ll let you know how it goes!
I love your blog — I have actually been a lucker her for quite a while. I recently found this website http://www.pinchingyourpennies.com and they have coupon deals for Walgreen’s, CVS and lots of other stores. Just reading this post of your’s i think you might like this website.
