Coupons and other things!

January 26th, 2006 at 06:37 pm

Well my wife saved about 24 dollars yesterday with coupons and store specials. Why the filters for our coffee maker turned out to cost only 14 cents. It has taken some doing but we are turning the corner on the shopping issue.

The heating and electric bill was only up slightly from last year(about 17 dollars). As best we can figure our lowering of the thermostat saved us. We are wearing sweaters but are getting used to it.

I have 21 payments left on the DW's CC. I am still looking for extra work to help get this paid off sooner. No luck yet.

I have kept spending to in budget items only so far. I am keeping my fingers crossed that no major problem arises.

    Wow! you really got her on board!! - great for you both!! - Hang in there, 21 payments doesn't seem that bad! and now that you are both working towards the same end, it'll soon be even less!
