Couponing & Goals

I've been working on using coupons for our grocery budget more lately. I had really dropped the ball on this since my son's diagnosis so I knew I was spending more. Right now, I have 45.99 left in my budget for food, but at least there are only 7 days left.

On the other hand, I think Kroger may have a mega sale this week and Big Lots has their 20% off coupon this week so I hate to miss.

I did have a larger purchase at Walmart for food and household items. I had forgotten my coupons so that didn't help matters either. I will work at concentrating my efforts on sales combined with coupons and scratch and dent.

For January, the amount I saved with coupons is at 11%. I hope to improve this to 20% by the end of February.
