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.

    Ashley, in boise the fusion razors were on an end cap on the razor isle but not IN the razor isle (took me a while too!). There weren’t many left though as of yesterday. They were the black kind. Also, i was able to use the toothbrush coupons on the regular, non power ones.
    Kim, i’ve never had a problem using the ANY size coupons on the trial sizes, however i do usually use those for walmart. But i have used them several times with target, i guess it just depends on the cashier!

  • Kim

    Has anyone had issues with the checker not allowing you to purchase a trial size item when the coupon says “any” and not “excluding trial size?” I just didn’t buy them at that point. They also told me that the listerine $5 gc/wyb 3 was not this week as well. How do you get around those situations???

  • Brittaney

    I noticed that a lot of the prices were not on sale at target in boise either. Not sure why. But they were only off by less than $1 so it still made for a good deal.

  • Ashley

    I found the same thing, the match ups didnt work on alot of things. They said the oil of olay was last week, they would not accept my johnson coupon on the buddies, i couldnt find a fusion razor anywhere for 4.99, they would not accept the coupon for the toothbrush said it had to be a power brush the coupons on the light bulbs are for 2 different types of bulbs. I left the store very very frustrated.

  • Heidi

    Today when I went to Target and had my list in hand. Most of the items listed here were not on sale at my Target in Oregon. I have never had that happen before even though it says on the sites to check your local area. I thought I lived in the same region so have never really worried about it. Just thought I would get an FYI out there – if you live in Oregon (or anywhere else), check your local ad first before going out with your list! And maybe you all do that anyway…lol. I am wondering if the regions have changed or if this just happens once in a while?

  • Why do some blinkys have manufactors coupon on them and some don’t? I was at WalMart and a cashier wasn’t going to take a blinky for Kraft shredded cheese, I had gotten it at Publix (it was not a Publix store coupon), it did not have manufactor coupon anywhere on it, Smart souce was the coupon company. I asked her to ask the manager to O.K. the coupon, the manager O.K.ed it. This was the first time I had paid attention that some blinkies have the coupon companies name on it but do not say they are manufactor coupons.
    Thanks,
    Sharon
