I'm addicted

I've been working on my grocery list this morning. Its a weekly task that I usually complete during nap time. I compare Publix and Kroger weekly ads and decide which of them has the things we need on sale. Then I go through the fridge and pantry to find the things that we need. Theres somethings that we need whether they are on sale or not, these always go on the top of my list. I use two websites to get deal scenarios and coupon match-ups, they are Time-2-Save and Southern Savers.

Heres my lists:

Publix
Bread
Milk *
Eggs
Pop
Pasta * (3) Muellers
Pizza * (4) Frechetta
Soft Pretzel *
Wise Cheese Doodles *
Soft soap *
Johnsons Bathtime sudzing bar *
Creamer
Paper Towels * Brawny
Salad
Dressing * Wishbone spicy french
Soup * (2) Progressive
Strawberrys
English muffins
Olives * (2)
Spaghetti Sauce * (3) if on sale.

* means I have a coupon and the ( ) is the amount I need to buy

CVS
Cover Girl Foundation
Cover Girl Eyeshadow Smoky Stick
Crest Pro Health Toothpaste *
Aussie Styling Spray *
Coke (4)
Izze Drink *

I always make my lists on an envelope and put all coupons inside the envelope. That way I never forget to use them. Between the two stores I will save $22 in coupons alone. I'm super excited to go tomorrow!

I am addicted to saving money. My mom always taught me to shop clearance racks first and buy things on sale. I've taken what she taught me and just perfected it! But thats what happens when you become a SAHM. I just never new I was going to enjoy it so much!

Tomorrow I will post total savings and what I actually bought (because we all know I add to the list in store).
