Here are some highlights from today's shopping trip:
8 Airfreshener Sprays for $3 (.37 cents each) and... BTW... since I live in a house of all Shaw Boys... I totally need this!!!
Airfresh i-Motion (originally $11.99) for $2.49 ... this is for the baby's room because it will "see" us when we come in to change a diaper and freshen the room!
(2) Airfreshmatics (also $11.99 each) for $1.49 ... these can be set to spray when we want...
(6) Hamburger Helper boxes (originally $2.50 each) for $4.20 (.70 a box) ... for nights when I need a QUICK dinner that my five-year-old will actually eat!
(6) Easy Mac Cups for $1.35 (.22 ea) ... again fast lunches for a 5yo.
(2) Miracle Whip jars for $1.49 ea ... Hubby's favorite!
I also got a FREE DiGiorno Flatbread Melt and a Butternut Squash for 2 cents!!!
My total savings for the shopping trip was $83.50 and now I have .50 cents off a gallon next time I fill up on gas!!!

I'm a Hip and Krazy Money Saving Mom!
So my sister recently opened my eyes to the world of coupon-shopping. I thought that because I often use coupons when going to the store that I knew what I was doing... way wrong!!!
This new found way of shopping involves lots of planning, but it's well worth it. I saved over $300 in groceries just in six days of shopping. Here are some of the websites that I visit to help me accomplish this:

www.hip2save.com
www.moneysavingmom.com
You can do it, too! Just get a subscription to a newspaper (or three!) and start clipping and printing coupons!!!
What you see above doesn't include the items we've started using, toiletry items and what's in the fridge and freezer. But the majority of what I did happened when a store was having a sale or promo on a brand/product - stacked with a manufacturer coupon(s) and/or store coupon(s). The key is buying things when you can stack the coupons, double the coupons, and maximize when you can get more than one. Some of the items in the picture were even free!!! Yes, you can shop and come home with LOTS of free items if you do it just right!

TBall
Spiderman started TBall on June 1st. He had a week of practices and then he had his first game on Monday (this week). So far he spends most of the time talking to the other players and making them laugh. He also likes to tell everyone that he is #10. His second game (Wed) went better. He even got two good hits! :)
