Where is the time going? I'm still working on coupons, getting ready for our weekly couponista meeting on Wednesday. Plan to do my Publix shop & WD shop (from last week's ad) tomorrow after the meeting. I know, it's the last day for Publix so it's chancey that I will find what I'm after. I'll have to look up and see when WD last ad day is, this may not work at all for Winn Dixie. I did see a few good deals in Wags and CVS, I MAY try to hit those as well. After all, what good is couponning if we don't make every trip count..mileage and gas-wise I mean. Those of you who are just starting out....take it slow and do what you can do...remember, the sale will come around again in about 6 weeks, so there are more opportunities. Work on your stockpile. Maybe at first try 1 or 2 deals at the drug stores, ones where you come out ahead of the game, like turning your rewards back on the 2nd deal. And don't let those register rewards or extra care bucks expire on you, it happens to me as well. Then it's kinda like the wonderful sale you got....really wasn't a sale. Okay, if I see anything earth shattering, I'll let you guys know. End of month coming up, you may want to take your coupon books into Target, check the end caps where they mark things down and see what you can get with your coupons. Only when you have tons of time. Have a good week, you savvy money savers..you! RG
