Precious,
It is getting tough now because I cannot shop during the week and 2 of the grocery stores sales change on thurs/fri. So trying to trade for coupons on sale items is really hard. I am finding now I am spending more money at the grocery store because I can not "shop around" And yeah Still no car. lol I would love some tips on making things from scratch. I was thinking of buying a bread machine as we go through prob 4 loves a week. Keep up your great shopping trips. I love reading them.
