Feeling Thrifty

I haven't blogged in weeks. I'm just uninspired. But today I'm feeling do-goodly (I made that word up). We've been doing lots of news stories about saving money. So I thought I'd pass some helpful websites along.

Here are links to some of the great coupon sites:

http://www.couponmom.com/
http://www.retailmenot.com/

Here are the links to two news stories we've done recently on coupons:

If this website takes off, it could be cool. They're going to take your shopping list and tell you which store has the cheapest prices for your list:

If you register, use this as your invite code: ESCB

(It lets them know that I sent you.)

This site is cool because you can search for any farmer's markets in your area:

Our church Relief Society group had a night where we swapped recipes for inexpensive dinner ideas and also swapped clothes. You could do the same with your church or neighborhood group. Here is a link to a story we did about it:

Here is a link to some of the recipes we shared that night:

I hope someone finds something helpful in this blog post. I'm here to save you money. (Well, at least for today and until I think of something more entertaining to blog about.)

Jerk

I could think of some other things to call him, but I don't use that kind of language. Ugh, what a complete tool! Yes, I know this is a silly reality show that I don't take very seriously, but SERIOUSLY ... this guy is a JERK.
