Maybe its not so bad being poor..

If you remember a few posts ago I said that we are now poor due to me deciding to stay home now. To help out with the budget we decided that I would start clipping coupons through a program called Coupon Sense. My first day on the program I made a killing! Above is a picture of all the things I bought. I got 6 boxes of diapers, 4 pen packs, 4 candy bars, 2 cookie mixes, 2 fruit snack boxes, 2 Glade candles, 2 Air wick automatic sprayers, and 1 razor with refills. The grand total (including tax) was....drum roll please....$5.57! I was so excited the wipes alone would normally be five dollars. My total savings was $82.59! Many of you know my husband and know what a cheap skate...ahhh, I mean "saver" he is and he couldn't wipe the smile off his face for five minute ts. I was glad I could make him so proud. Maybe it is not so bad being poor.
