With my new tight budget I was able to get all of what I need for the week for $44.00 savings $9.00 on sale items. This includes a great sale on frozen vegetables. I got the sweet potatoes and even had enough money to get a box of 100 calorie cookies that I love so much. I am breathing easier now.

I did splurge yesterday for plane tickets to Seattle (I live in California) to visit my best friend at the end of July. I promised him that I would be 25lbs less at that time so everything I got at the grocery store will play real nice into that plan as well.

I have also decided to start selling on Ebay all the clothes I can no longer wear to make some extra money.

I love the new car and life is good!!

Thank you all for some amazing suggestions to save money. They all have been well noted and some have proven to work well. Thanks again!!

That's great-- congratulations!

I get a *huge* rush from seeing those savings on my grocery receipts-- but generally feel silly sharing the glee "live". Heeee heeee heeeee, cantaloupes are 99 cents each next week!

See what I mean? Just enjoy...
