ways to save $
So I'm all for saving a buck where ever we can, especially since were now a 1 income 3 people home! Wanted to share some ideas I use that work 
feel free to add to the list and let the savings begin!
- I buy store brand food and cleaning produts. They work the same and cost less then the ones in fancy bottles.
-I am not crazy about coupons cause they get lost or expire but if you call companies like pampers, huggies and playtex, they can add you to there coupon mailing list. Heck I called huggies and asked them for some coupons and they sent a total of 23$ worth just off the get go! Totally worth the 5 min call!
-shop at thrift stores for clothes. I wear almost all old navy stuff cause it fits my curvey body well but pay like 3$ for jeans. They still look good and I can get several pairs for the cost of 1. Plus shauns shirts get torn up at work so why buy new just to destroy it in 3 months lol? Now he can look good too
Out of time..Lilly woke up and has decided she's starving lol. Peace preglies, happy saving!

i second the thrift store!!
shop around online!! lots of store do free shipping to the store! and prices are cheaper online sometimes!
It's so true when you say store brands are a lot like name brands. If you check the ingredients/contents they are usually the same! Also when name brands go on sale I stock up like crazy, like I got Tony's pizza on sale - 4 large pizzas for $10!
If you have to shop for convenience, like Walgreens or CVS where everything is overpriced, visit KrazyCouponLady.com for coupons first, then take them in and get some great deals!
I cut my utilities bill in half by turning off the thermostat when I'm gone and turning it a few degrees higher at night when I sleep with a fan.
We signed up for our credit card's cash back program. When we reach $300 cash back they will give us $75 for free. Those are good programs to take advantage of if you can pay your CC bill off every month.
