Blueberry Cravings!


I know that blueberries are healthy for you but they are pretty expensive, especially the fresh ones. I did a price comparison between the two main stores here because they were both promoting the sale of blueberries.(Probably because of Oprah and Dr. Phils recent shows) Randalls was offering 18oz for $5.99. HEB was offering 4.40oz containers for $1.99 each. Now, the $1.99 was the first thing that caught my attention as being more affordable but look what happens when I compare the ounces


(4) 4.40 oz containers or 17.60oz @ 1.99 = 7.98

(1) 18.0z container @ 5.99 = 5.99


savings of $1.97


Plus I get more bluberries at the $5.99 price!


What amazes me is how easily I could have been persuaded to buy the $1.99 containers because of the price at first glance. Lesson learned. Check your ounces!

Free stuff in the mail today!


I love little surprises in the mail. I get to try the new Ziploc vacuum bags and they sent a coupon book for $1 off many items... Glade candles, Windex wipes and many more. I also got a free tube of Crest toothpaste. I usually try to find a few freebies each day that I can sign up for and that way I get a few everyday. Walmart.com is a good place to look for free samples or Sam's Club. Sometimes I get them from MoneySavingMom.com. Seek and you shall find!!

New Year!! More Savings!!


This year has been a great lesson for me on saving money. I was actually surprised at the items I could get for FREE! I look foward to tracking my savings for 2009 and I hope I can save more. This last years savings was for coupons alone. I did not include the free samples that I got in the mail or the gas savings at Randalls. I filled up my tank for only $20 last week. I admire the women who have been doing this for a while and feed their family for $40 a week. Yikes. My new year's resolution is to not eat out as much or to eat out for half the cost with coupons or gift cards. What is yours?
