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.

In todays paper

I was happy to see double coupons for Albertson in the Idaho Press Tribune as well as an insert from P&G.  Many of you left comments on my blog today,life has been a little crazy at my house.  I have to remember that family always comes first and my blog comes 2nd.  I hope to be feeling better tomorrow with all my thrifty deals.

If you buy your Sunday papers from the news stand   MAKE SURE you look to see if the coupons are in them.  There has been a huge problem with people stealing the coupons from the papers and not buying the paper. You are out of luck if your coupons are missing from the news stand.  But  If you get the paper delivered to your home ,and have a subscription with them, and if for any reason your coupons or inserts are missing  CALL THEM SUNDAY MORNING ASAP!!!  They will be happy to bring out your missing inserts but they need to have you call in time to get on that days re-deliver route.  For the Idaho Press Tribune customer service call 208-467-9252

I am lucky to have a local paper, The Idaho Press Tribune that lets me buy Multiple Sunday papers for only .60 cents each.  To ready about the A Thrifty Mom paper deal click here.  This has been a huge key to my coupon savings because I am able to get multiple coupons at a rock bottom price!

    I think they tax on the product pre coupons. Sometimes I pay way more in tax than the items that I am buying. In UT our doubles were in the actual paper and not and insert. Keeps people from stealing them.

    I was just wondering how Albertson add they tax on the subtotal. I’m looking at my receipts and find out that the tax on the subtotal is more than 6%. Thanks for all your tips on good deal.

    I have been missing one of my Sunday papers. I called this morning early and I was told that the earliest I could it redelivered was Tuesday when all of the left over papers for the day make it back to their office. Just an FYI.

    I got a great deal from the Idaho Statesman for Sundays and holidays only 50 cents a week. That just ended a couple weeks ago and I have been telling myself that I’ll buy my paper at Walmart.. of course I never end up remembering or making it there!
    I’ve taken a little coupon hiatus, but am ready to get back in the game and am going to sign up for the A Thrifty Mom special!!!
