Change can make you have a better mindset!!

Okay, I've been laid-off since Sept. 10, and since we are down to one reliable income source I'm learning to become more frugal with our money. What am I doing? Couponing and learning to cook more at home!! If you haven't started couponing I Strongly Suggest that you Do!!! I have saved sooooo much from doing so. For ex. this week at Harris Teeter is Super doubles week ( 1.50 coupon is doubled to 3.00) before any coupons or saving from using my vic card my balance was $98 and some change. Well after coupons and vic savings I only paid $24.03 out of pocket. What did I get? Well, I got milk, yogurt, danimal smoothies, strawberries, egg rolls, rice, chicken breasts,cereal, spices, and some other stuff but can't remember. Because of the super doubling at Harris Teeter I got my milk, yogurt, smoothies, rice, and cereal for free. Through couponing and blogs my whole outlook on things has changed. Instead of going out to eat alot we usually just come home and eat.

 I'm also trying to do a meal plan each week. The meal plan does help. You don't have to stick to it persay (can choose to switch what you're cooking). This week I planned our meals around what I already had in my fridge and cabinets so, when I wtn grocery shopping I didn't have to buy much meat. Our budget is usually $60 but this week I only spent about $40 (fruits and veggies included).

Just tried it and LOVE IT!!!

Okay, I'm not a make-up person and I know others have already tried this, but better late than never! Okay, CVS has a sell on select Myabelline mascara 2/$10, I had some Extra Care Bucks soooooo I decided to treat myself. I have heard fellow you tubers give rave reviews on this product, Maybelline the Falsies volum Express and I Love It!! I could immediately tell a difference in my lashes. In my opinion, it's a must try!!
