We were talking about how couponing really pays off! It has become amazing to us how quickly it all adds up and takes off that final total! We have a challenge. We want to see and share with you, our readers, how much we can and have saved.
Ann's challenge involves her double couponing that she does at Pick 'n Save every Wednesday. She breaks up her orders to $25 each order (before coupons) so that she can have multiple transactions. She used reuseable bags (when she remembers!).
Betsy's challenge involves her couponing. No doubling will count just what is strictly saved from coupons and reuseable bags.
So, we will be showing you how we do it and how it really does add up! You will see one person's savings that involves coupons, double coupons, and reuseable bags. You will see one person's log of just coupons - not doubled. It will be fun to see how those coupons add up.
We are going to put our savings in a separate "pot" each. This way we will update you at the end how much is in our "pot." Let us know what you think. We LOVE to hear from our readers!

So, we went to see the movie The Help, and I have been told I should have read the book first. Not that it made a difference...I LOVED the movie! Anyhow, I found it today on Amazon because I was thinking of buying it to read on my car ride when we go out of town this weekend. It's only $8.66 on Amazon! Buy The Help (Movie Tie-In)
