My friend Michelle Thompson just stopped by. Together we mapped out her CVS trip for tommorow. Now let me just say when you first start out you are going to need a few items. A good pair of scissors, a sharpie marker and at the very least a poly accordian file. You can get these things at the Dollar Tree. It will take several weeks of saving your coupon inserts before you have full access to all the best deals and your first trip to CVS, Walgreens, etc....will have an out of pocket expense. You were going to spend that money any way but you will have a coupon savings and then you have your ECB s to roll over for the next trip.
Michelle has a long list of razors, deoderants, shower gels, toothpaste, toothbrushes, dish detergent, cokes and more. Her out of pocket expense should be at $30.00 however she is going to be able to use coupons on everything and I am guessing she will have saved about 75% of the normal cost of these products. I will get her receipts tommorow and do the figures. I want to show that us normal housegirls can do this saving money thing with ease and minimal time.
Lets see what happens.......To Be Continued
