I think it's that darn unilever promotion that was too good to pass up. I agree though, it doesn't do us any good to stockpile, if we're still out there spending (and not using what we have -- or giving it away -- cause we knew we got it for cheap!). I told my hubby I am only going out to spend this month on what I need for Thanksgiving. I'm going to have to just use what I have for the rest of the month!! Then come Jan first, I'm going to consentrate on a strict $$ amt like you did last month!!<BR/><BR/>Keep up the good work!! It keeps us inspired.<BR/><BR/>GabrielleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5853676192846816353.post-47121611809784792222008-11-13T08:04:00.000-07:002008-11-13T08:04:00.000-07:00I've only been doing this since March and I had to...I've only been doing this since March and I had to learn that I couldn't go out and do every deal and hit every store for the sales. It was still adding up. Plus it took up alot of time. And I am working on making my time just as valuable as my money. <BR/><BR/>I gave myself a budget of how much I can spend on groceries a week and what I can get with it with the deals out there I can. Some things I have passed up on.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00146378511791644420noreply@blogger.com
