So, I know there is a lot of talk lately with TLC's Extreme Couponing (TLC's Extreme Couponing). I think this is a GREAT idea... BUT (isn't there always a but?)... how many mothers out there have time to save up, cut, organize, plan & excacute a mega shopping trip. And even if you do, where can you store 30 gallons of laundry detergent, 48 bottles of palmolive and, oh, let's say 88 bottles of mustard?? Can you even imagine storing thousands of rolls of toilet paper in your home? I would think that would be a fire hazzard... just sayin'...
Now, to be fair, I'd like to add that I'm ALL about saving money... I just like to do it as easily and thought-free as possible.
For example... like eating out? Try restaurant.com for restaurants you probable didn't even know EXIST in your home town. Its a great way to save & you find great little places to eat! I call that a win/win scenario! To make it EVEN BETTER, restaurant.com is ALWAYS having some kind of sale. Best way to keep up with their sales is to like them on Facebook and also join their mailing list... Like right now... use promo code FRIENDS right now and save 70% off your order... to put that into perspective for you, for a $25 gift certificate to the restaurant of your choice, you'd normally pay $10. Right now, using said promo code.. you'll be paying $3 for $25 worth of food... I don't think you can beat that anywhere... not even McDonalds $1 menu offers that kind of deal... I'm telling ya, my momma taught me well... check it out!
