It's been awhile since my last post.  I still have a couple to do from Texas but just have not had much free time to post.  So here is a random one until I can get time to do something more substantial.  

I am always looking for ways to save money.  As we get closer to officially beginning our adoption journey each cent we can save gets us one step closer.  While we were home my mom told me about a website called couponmom.com.  You sign up for weekly emails and it sends coupons as well as the circular from the grocery store that you choose each week.  It's great for meal planning as you can look at coupons and what's on sell.  I love the coupons because they are for a few things that I actually buy.  (I have been known to buy random stuff to try because I have a coupon which makes me end up spending more.)  I also love it because it's free so if I can't use any of them I've haven't lost anything.

Another great site that I have found is moneysavingmom.com.  I found it through a friend's blog and I am obsessed.  I completed a survey this morning for a one year subscription to Martha Stewart Living FREE!  They update several times a day and it is very overwhelming as they show how to combine store specials with coupons to get items for free!  I'm amazed at the time they spend figuring all this stuff out but some of the deals are unbelievable!  But there are lots of great things if you weed through.  I also got a coupon for $1 oatmeal at Jamba Juice.  Can't beat a $1 breakfast!  I've really enjoyed some of the posts and I've only been on for 2 days.  Yeah for saving money! 

Hopefully life will slow down soon and I'll post a few more things about what's going on around here!
