It’s a new month.
And that means a new $300 to spend. Plus I had $30.00 in cash and some miscellaneous gift cards and ECBs left from May, which should allow me to stockpile a few more items and have a couple of splurges this month.

Shopping Notes
I have enough onions to choke a horse. Have decided to make French Onion Soup and freeze some for future use.
Free items include Kraft Fresh Take (FREE coupon), Comet Stainless Steel Cleaner, and Texas Toast Croutons. (And the Kotex Tampons if you considering the Movie Cash.)
And I’m excited that the Hen House CSA starts in a couple of weeks and I’ll have fresh veggies and dairy/meat every week.
How about you? What great things did you find this week?
Follow me as I chronicle my shopping adventures in an effort to spend $300 per month on groceries, health/beauty and cleaning products in Success Stories.























Wow…You are amazing!! I’m so very jealous…I try and try…but it never ends up as good as your steals of the week!! Great Job!
Ann – Remember, I do it for a living, so I should be good at it and I’ve also been couponing for almost 3.5 years so I can “sit” and “wait” for a great sale and then stock up.
