So Long, February

Well, it's already March! This month has flown by. I have learned a lot, and it seems like I keep getting better and better at couponing! I can't wait to continue to help others with their money-saving adventures. I have started keeping a monthly spreadsheet of our grocery expenses. This helps me track my progress, and it's fun to see how all of the hard work paid off! Without further ado...

February Savings
Feb. 1: Publix-spent $14.21, saved $48.19
Feb. 6: Publix-spent $13.22, saved $74.77
Feb. 15: Publix-spent $24.68, saved $54.15
Feb. 20: Publix-spent $29.42, saved $94.10
TOTAL: spent $81.53, saved $271.21

As you can see, this was an "All Publix" month. Not only have I saved close to $300, but the apartment is still completely stocked. I skipped out on grocery shopping the last week of February because I had absolutely no room for any more non-perishables. Hopefully, some of the billions millions of boxes of pasta and the ridiculous amounts of pasta sauce will soon make their way into the cabinets. I have to admit that I'm pretty tired of looking at them. Spaghetti, anyone?? Again, I shouldn't be complaining. Better to have tons than none :)
