In my original post I stated we had $150 in our "jar". I made a mistake and it was supposed to be $100. Anyways, with that said...
I went shopping on Monday and saved $18 (spent only $20). We dropped that $18 in the jar, bringing our total to $118.
Then I emptied out my change purse... we don't spend change ever. When I emptied it out, there was $9. This brings our total to $127.
Then Tuesday we went to the zoo (for free...we should drop that $30 savings into the jar too hmmm) and on the way home drove past CVS (it is right at the corner of our development) and saw that coke 12 packs were on sale 3/$11. That doesn't seem like such a good deal to me usually BUT... they had made a very large error last time we were shopping and to make up for the mess they made, they gave me an extra ECB. So I had $8 in ECB. We went in and on the packs of coke were coupons for $1 off 2. We only got 3 so could only use 1 coupon. We ended up getting the 3 12 packs for $2.25 and saved $9. Adding that to our fund, we have now $136.
I also in the past couple weeks have mailed out 3 rebates that will total around $25 so when those come in I will add that to our savings.
Who woulda thought this could be so much fun?!
Total savings since June 7.... $136!!!
