Coupon Savings!

Great news!! I opened my coupon spreadsheet yesterday and started looking at it closely.

I've saved $118.13 using coupons in January, and $40.49 so far in February. This is not counting the store savings - this is just coupons! That's great!! And I will say I'm super picky about coupons. I don't use them for anything I wouldn't normally buy. I'm also careful to check to see if the generic is less without a coupon than the brand name is with the coupon.

So I thought today I'd post a few of my favorite links to the money saving blogs I like to read. Eventually I'd like to get them into my list on the sidebar.

**Please note these are not links - you'll need to copy & paste to open the link. Sorry about that.

This is the BEST at keeping track of your money - it does it for you. Sadly I use a local credit union & it can't link up with them - but it tracks everything else. I just started using this last month

Ordering Info

Check out the fabric collection in my etsy shop - just follow the link. Once you're there, choose your item & check out. You'll need to create an account name if you haven't shopped etsy before.

If you're in Yakima, I'll deliver it free. Otherwise, postage is approx $4.

And let me know if you prefer a different fabric or another project than the ones shown. If you check the sold items you'll see what I've done in the past.
