COUPONING CRAZY


Hello Everyone,

As you can see this is my biggest haul in one day and it only cost about $25.00.  I did a total of 6 transactions at three different CVS stores (2 ran out of the Scott Paper Towels) and 1 curbside express order. I am done for now when it comes to Scott Paper Towels, lol.  I couldn't pass up the sale combination this past weekend.  If you need tips or have questions, post in comments below.

Working on my website too...coming soon!

Free Vacation Coming

Happy March,

Today, I decided to plan ahead and book my yearly summer family vacation. We are headed to Orlando, FL again (its been 8 years) and I want to visit Universal Studios.  I decided to a challenge myself and keep the trip costs under $500 for a family of three for seven days.  So far, I have 5 days booked for free. I redeemed a free vacation package that covered 4 days and three nights at the Radisson Resort Orlando and with Expedia.com, a coupon covers our first night stay (out of pocket cost $6.00 after coupon).  I still need a two day stay, just haven't seen the right price yet.  I booked the round trip flight on Frontier and paid $212.00 for 3 tickets. Not bad. I suggest checking Bookvip.com out for affordable vacations. Thanks to them I will received my free Radisson Resort stay, otherwise I would be paying $137.00 a night, last time I checked. This will be an ongoing post. What are your summer plans for trips? Do you know any vacation tips?

CTFW Couponing Tips

CTFW Couponing Tips


BOGO - is your friend.  Buy one Get one free.

Plan your weekly shopping trips on Saturdays for the upcoming week, with store flyers.

You could pay someone to clip coupons for you (Very Lazy). Do yourself, dedicate 30 minutes/week.

Buy groceries in rotation: pantry items this week, freezer items next week, etc...

Take advantage of unused storage space in your house for your stockpile. Do not hoard, lol.


Only coupon for what you need, do not overspend and if you don't have the money for a deal this week, it's okay because the deal will come around again.
