I have decided to become an active blogger again on this account.
There are many reasons that I have decided to resurrect this blog.
The first reason is I love to share my grocery savings ideas with my friends and I have been doing this through facebook but feel that many of my facebook friends may be getting sick of my coupon celebrations. This blog would allow people that are passionate about savings to check in or follow the blog to learn more about ways to save money with couponing.
Another reason, to start updating again is that by doing so it helps my accountablility. As I set goals, like being back on the coupon wagon, having an "audience" helps me stay true to my mission. I have been on and off again with couponing and have decided that I need to stay on and that the time I spend couponing is worth the savings. I have 2 children that will going to college very soon and sticking to grocery budget has to be a priority for me.
I hope this blog also will be a resources for ideas regarding saving money in other areas and some of the tricks and resources that I know of to save money. I am looking forward to some of my die hard couponing friends to also share some of their secrets with our readers (if anyone really follows me on this journey :) ).
Here are some features that I am planning for my posts....
1. Grocery savings and way to stay on a grocery budget using couponing and shopping the sales. (weekly and monthly updates)
2. Other ways to save money and blogs to follow with coupon codes, savings etc.
3. Renewal projects and crafting ideas - ways to revive items that you have in your home and make them look new again or repurpose them in other ways.
4. Organization strategies - I am an obsessive organizer. I plan to share a variety of methods that work for me to make life easier.
5. Cooking savings and recipes that have been road tested by our family and friends. This one will really help me with accountability as I have fallen into a rut with my cooking and make the same things all of time. I will need to lean on many of my amazing friends who inspire me in their cooking!
So if you already follow this blog, look for more updates. If you are interested in following me on this journey, you can subscribe to this blog through email. :)
I have lots of ideas of future posts and ideas to share with my friends!
