Saving Money!!

I have been going crazy the past month or two with coupons and trying to get the best deals using my coupons.  I love finding awesome websites that help me understand the deals and how to use my coupons to get the best deals.  I've posted a couple of them previously.  I love Couponing to Disney.  Kristen, the owner of Couponing to Disney is amazing.  She has saved SO SO much money for their Disney trip that they are taking at the end of May.  She has only started saving for her trip since June 1, 2009 and she already has $1972.51 saved and her goal by May 20, 2010 is $2600.00.  I think that is absolutely fantastic and so did my husband.  That's why my husband and I have decided to start doing something similar.  Except this will be to pay off our debt instead of saving for a trip.  So, hopefully, we'll be able to start dwindling our credit card debt down to nothing.  I'll post more about this later.

Walgreens Coupons and How To's

Hey everyone!  I just wanted to give you some links to some amazing Walgreens coupons.  Pair these up with some manufacturer coupons and some of these will make for some great deals.
Big Joy Coupons
Walgreens Weekly Coupons - Dec. 20 thru Dec. 26
Also, if you've never really used coupons at Walgreens, you'll need to watch this video.  This is Collin at Hip2Save.com in one of her "Follow Me Monday" videos.  She really helps with understanding each store and how they work.  Walgreens is a little tricky sometimes.  Also, just a note, always hand over the manufacturer coupons first and then the Walgreens coupons.  She tells you this in the video, but this is just a little reminder.  I learned this the hard way.  Just a note:  There are two videos.  She couldn't fit it all into one.  They aren't that long though.

Fresh Produce Coupon @ Target

Okay, so I've been doing some more couponing this morning and found a great coupon, $1 off Green Giant fresh coupon at Target.  Go here to get the coupon and head to a Super Target near you.  I hope it makes for a great deal.  I mean, unless you are growing all of your produce yourself or you are getting your produce from a local farmer.  By all means, don't use this coupon then.  Because our local farmers need your support more than you need to save money.  And that's the truth.  These local farmers depend on us to make a living and feed their families.  I know this because we are a local farm.  It takes everything we've got and then some to keep us afloat.  So, please, support your local farmers.

Eating Local and Traditional Real Foods

This year my husband and I are going to start on our journey (again) of eating locally and traditionally starting January 1, 2010. We will hopefully use this blog for keeping us accountable. It is really hard for us. We'll go a couple of weeks doing pretty okay with traditional meals and real whole foods and then we start getting really busy and stopping by some fast food place because we don't have time to make a real meal. So, this is it.  We really mean it!

Traditional Foods for New Year's Day

My mom loves to make the traditional New Year's Day meal every year.  But, one thing she doesn't think about is getting all of her ingredients local.  It doesn't even cross her mind.
If you want to buy your pork and greens locally you really have to stay on top of when your local farms will be out and about to get them.  Grateful Growers Farm will be at the Charlotte Regional Market from 1pm - 5pm on Tuesday, December 22, 2009.  If you need any pork, they are the farm to go to this year.  With the bad weather we had this past weekend, many local farmers didn't get out to the market.  Or at least none of my favorite local farmers.  I really don't know if any of my other local favorite farms will be at the market this week.  We can only see.

Shop at Home and Cash Back

I don't think I've told y'all about the Shop At Home website yet.  Basically, go to shopathome.com and when you sign up you'll get $5 cash back just for signing up. Then, go through ShopAtHome.com to shop at your favorite stores and receive cash back just for shopping.  Most of the stores you go to will have a percentage that you earn for whatever amount you spend on that website.  This will be a great way to save money and use those gift cards you know you're going to get at Christmas.  Some of the online stores that I love that you can go through ShopAtHome.com are Old Navy, Avenue, Target, and the Children's Place just to name a few.  Just click on the link below to get you started.
