About Us

I am a stay at home mom with four wonderful kids. I have been married for over 10 years to my best friend. I am head over heels in love with him. He always supports my crazy "thrifty adventures". We have a lot of fun together.

I was raised on a small dairy farm. Where I learned very young, the value of hard work and how to be thrifty in all areas of life. Growing up our meals were made from scratch. Only on special occasion would we get name brand cereal, chips, or any other fancy treats. Now that I am a Mom with my own budget, the basic foods always comes first. I too make most of our meals from scratch and take pride in feeding my family a well balanced healthy diet.

I enjoy seeing how far I can make our budget stretch, and when I take the time to match sales with coupons I am able to get all those "fun & fancy" items that would other wise be out of my budget. Being thrifty has always been a way of life for me, but it has also become a real joy.

A Thrifty Mom Newspaper deals

Are you ready for this?
I have been looking for a great deal on the paper for over a year now. I have been working with the Idaho Press-Tribune and, I am thrilled to let you know about the ” A Thrifty Mom” Idaho Press-Tribune paper deal.
For only $13.80 a month (this is over half off the normal price) you will get 1 daily paper (Monday- Saturday) But on Sundays you will get 4 Sunday papers. These will be delivered to your home. The coupon inserts come in the Sunday paper, so you will get 4 coupon inserts. This is a coupon shoppers dream. If you want to upgrade to 6 Sunday papers it will be another $1.20 a week, that is only .60 cents a paper. Or if you already buy the paper you can add up to 5 Sunday papers for only .60 cents each.
So do I think it is worth the money? Yes, yes, yes…..have you read my blog? Wonder how I save so much money, It is all because of multiple coupons from the Sunday coupon inserts.
To sign up or for any other questions, call Greg at the Idaho Press-Tribune 208-870-2784,
Make sure you ask for the “A Thrifty Mom” price.

For my reader that are not in Idaho here is a link that offers discounted papers all across the USA. Enter in your zip code and see what is available in your area.

  • Margo you can always call and ask them to lower the price again???

    I have been using the newspaper deal, but the price did go up $5 after a period of time. Is there a deal where the price stays at $13.80 per month?

    Have you seen any similar deals in the Dallas TX area?

  • I am a reader in GA and I would love to hear how you negotiated this awesome sunday paper deal for your area! I am spending $2.50 for a double bundle but we often have trouble finding them before they are sold out. I could not get the link to work either….

    thanks!

    This is such a great deal, however i live in Kansas. I so appreciate the link that you provided, but I cannot get it to work. Even though it does not work, thank you so much for thinking of those of us who are not in your area!

  • Wow! Thanks for this! I just sent it to my husband at work – great price!

  • Sharon

    That is a good deal! I have to pay $2.00 each for my Sunday papers. I don’t see the link for discounted newspapers, could you repost the link? Thank you!
