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.

    I went to my Toys R Us looking for this today, but they were already sold out. :( Luckily, where I live we also have a Babies R Us and they had about 10 on the shelf with the same sale price! I just wanted to let everyone know to think of trying Babies R Us on some of these great Toys R Us sales.
    I was able to get plenty of the FisherPrice diapers that went on sale black Friday at BRUS long after TRUS had been sold out. Not to mention, the store is far less crowded from all the people looking for the sales!

    I also bought one of these from Target when it was on clearance for around $11, so I only paid $6. Target also had the other Playskool toys on a price drop. The thing was that they were not marked. I used one the self scan price things and they were all like $5 off original price. I bought all of the Playskool toys that had coupons recently and only paid like $30 at Target. VERY THRIFTY! The only thing I could not find ANYWHERE was the sit and spin. The employees told me that they were discountined and they would not be getting anymore. I looked online and the price of them is already climbing because they can not be found in stores. I was really dissapointed because I had one of these when I was younger and loved it and wanted to get my nephew one.
    On a side note I just wanted to tell you that I stumbled on your website about a year ago and you have no idea what your tips have done for my shopping. I went from spending about $100 a week to just stocking up on sales and only spending about $20 a week on essentials. I live in Pennsylvania so I can really only do the WalMart and a few other deals but even so I have saved SO much money. You do a wonderful thing and I just wanted to tell you thank you and I hope that you and your family have a wonderful Christmas and the most blessed New Year. You deserve it! If you ever feel like doing nationwide “Couponing Class Tour” please keep a stop in central PA in mind. :) haha

  • thanks Sarah, I linked to you on this great find!
