Disclaimer: I am not a frugal blog, and so these posts will probably not make sense and will seem pretty random to my regular readers, if that’s you, you can just ignore these weekly updates. But, when I did this 3 years ago I saved hundreds of dollars. So if, documenting my deals and posting pictures of pads and oatmeal is going to be the motivation I need to get a truckload of free stuff then count me in. Week 1
I spent less than $10 on all this and here is how:

I needed some inspiration to get back on the couponing bandwagon! I still clip them, but I don't use them very well!
I literally was just talking to one of my girlfriends {who is a coupon nazi} and told her I need to 'learn' how to coupon. I love that even in Week 1 you saved money. I guess that means I need to start doing it asap! 🙂
