Couponing

I have always been all into the coupons since I have worked at CVS and have seen first hand how much money you can save using coupons. At CVS it really only helps you with cleaning and beauty products. (I have like 47 thousand razors hahah)

My Cousin Meagan has just recently started a new blog (which is awesome)

Now, All Georgians are about the think i am crazy and I thought it was crazy a few weeks ago but… Publix is the bomb.com place to shop for couponing deals. I have always been a stickler to Kroger since Publix always had much higher prices on items.  My cousins pictures week to week of her deals made me actually try to give Publix a chance. With coupons you can get deals like mine from this week below:
