Couponing 101

FEBRUARY 7, 2019

There is a myth that there are no coupons for healthy foods and it is simply not true. A good rule of thumb is to buy one newspaper per family member. For our family of four I used to buy four newspapers per week. The savings will vary depending on your family size and eating habits. Realistic Stockpile. Realistic Expectations.

Our problem isn’t spending, it’s income.

For the Mommas

JULY 24, 2016

Shop around at garage sales, thrift stores and online classifieds for furniture and other household items. Magazines and newspapers are all available online now. Reduce convenience foods. Frozen foods, prepared foods and junk food are not only more expensive than something you cook yourself, but also less healthy.
