IS it just me or does the years pass by much faster as you get older? I can barely remember what year I am in before it changes again.
I have a few resolutions for 2012....I should call them something besides resolutions though. Wishes...hopes....goals....I don't know.
First...
Couponing. I want to start couponing again. Mainly I want to tackle CVS....from what I understand you can really get great deals and lots of free things if you know how to do it. The problem is that I DON'T know how to do it. I have done a tad of research on it, but I need to sit down and plan. Apparently CVS is the place to buy ALL toiletries and paper goods and cleaning supplies. But it seems complicated....like really complicated.
I figured out the Harris Teeter couponing a while back. BUT it is so tedious and time consuming that I gave up. I want to get back at it. IT really does save A LOT of money and well worth the time. I want to be able to only get what we need and not come home with things that will sit on my shelves forever. I had a tendency to do that before. Do I really need 5 different kinds of hot sauce? No!!
I have lots of storage at the new house so I am totally fine stocking up on items that we will use....toliet paper, paper towels, shampoo, etc.
So yesterday I cut my coupons and studied the sales ads. I think I am prepared to go on my first CVS outing. I THINK.....everything I read said to start small. I will keep you posted.
Anyone have any good tips for coupons?
