Well, there is indeed such a thing as a free lunch…and free breakfast and dinner for that fact. I’m saving today by signing up for the email lists for the restaurants near my office. Just this week I got three free bagels from Bruegger’s Bagels (coupon for Facebook fans, no longer available), a card in […]
Honestly, I guess this week the post should be titled “How I’m Spending This Week.” Ugh. After a long 19 hour drive to Louisiana with my dad, we finally made it to Baton Rouge. We spent the ride buying gas (a lot) and listening to a spy novel on CD which I had picked up […]
So my husband is now an official Bayou Bengal! He flew down to Louisiana State University to pursue his dreams and begin the Athletic Training program there. I’m so excited for him but I miss him tons. Luckily I am planning a road trip next week to drive his car down there and visit him. […]
Well, this week has been crazy. On the plus side, I bought plane tickets to my sister’s bachelorette party in Florida with the cash I had been saving up. Yay! It’s a great feeling to have saved for a goal and met it! Also, my husband got accepted to Louisiana State University! Geaux Tigers! We […]
This week has been crazy busy since it’s the end of the semester for me and I have two papers due in just a few days, so I have been busy with grad school work and will be cozying up with my laptop this weekend to get these papers written. Speaking of school, another way […]
I did some sale-rack early Christmas shopping as I perused the sale racks at Ann Taylor Loft and found some great gifts for my sister (and a dress for myself). I got them all at a great price and I really think that my sister will love the gifts. I’ll be honest and say that […]
Well, this week I have not saved a lot. I have actually spent a lot. So how does that count for a blog entry on how I’m saving today? Well, what I have been spending on has been bills and debts. Because I got paid three times in September and I budget a month ahead, […]
Last weekend I ended up spending quite a bit stocking up on grocery items, but to balance it out I spent almost nothing this week (except for buying gas) and I don’t need groceries for a while (unless they are free!). I got my 20 Balance Bar coupons in the mail ($.55/1) which I had […]
This week I have spent very little which is great! I ate all my meals at home or brought them with me to work and school, except for two. Those eating out costs can add up really quickly so I try to plan ahead as much as possible and bring food with me. I also […]
Yesterday I picked up some free toothpaste at Rite Aid (free with coupons and +Up Rewards) and went to Safeway to stock up on some items which were on sale from their Mix & Match sale for super cheap. I saved a ton and am getting many free Powerades from the coupons I bought on […]
