A large part of the hassel has been relieved by a wonderful site: www.moneysavingmom.com While I am not a mother, this site posts deals from various stores, freebie alerta, great coupon links, recipes and frugal ways to do just about anything! I made apple butter a couple of weeks ago following the crockpot recipe on the site and my was it good (and frugal!) Just last night I saved $51 on my groceries by using techniques learned on her blog. Couponing isn't rocket science, you just have to understand how it works!
Crystal has a book she wrote called The Money Saving Mom®’s Budget, right now it is just for preorder, I think it comes out mid January. It is only $11, so it won't break the bank. If saving money is something you are striving for, I definately reccomend getting this book! And by letting others know about it, you can get a free ebook about freezer cooking. What a great deal, right?!
