Re-Cap Week 1

Ok, shoot the slacker....I went on a trip to Phoenix after getting well so it feels like forever. Thought I would recap the steps up to this point. Keeping it simple:
  1. order newspapers

  2. figure out a file box/system for hanging files/manila envelopes/accordian

  3. figure out binder (preferrably with zipper & strap) and baseball card holder inserts

  4. file weekly ads with coupons in labeled files (ex: marker 1/25 on front of file)

  5. print off price book and save the Savings Tracker Sheet (see link Step#3) to your computer.

If you have completed the first 5 steps give yourself a BooYa! Let's get this party started though, I'm not saving yet:)

TOTAL TIME (TO DATE): 3.5 hours

TOTAL COST (TO DATE): $98.24

I LOVE your blog!!! Here's my wisdom for saving even more moola on getting started....you can cut the cost back & skip the hanging folders & just use your zipper binder for everything, then it's all in one place! I have been doing this for years & it works GREAT with just one folder for everything. My biggest savings to date is I bought about $300 worth of groceries & only paid $95!!! I saved over $200!!! LOVE IT!!!
