Competitive? Me?!?!?! No...

I haven't posted in a while. Sorry about that. Honestly, I got pretty tired of couponing. Not the savings, per se, but the clipping, organizing, planning, waiting, rain checking, etc. When I talked to Nick about this, he was less than thrilled. You see, I have saved $2912 since January 14. He was reluctant to hear that I was struggling.

Today, my neighbor and friend, Wendy, went to the store and saved a freaking TON of money! I was really happy for her since she says that I'm part of the reason she started couponing. In fact, her savings kicked my savings' butt!

And Nick didn't miss his chance to rib me about it. I'm glad he did. My competitive side couldn't take it! Just got back from the store...

2 Wonder Breads
