Oh Boy Oh Boy!

Today is my mom’s 50th 35th birthday. I didn’t get to fly home to see her today, but I wanted to make her proud. She has taught me to buy things on clearance. As a kid, I would be told to clip coupons during my summer breaks, and we’d drive to Auburn, NY to go to the Wegman’s that doubled coupons to get a bigger savings.

I have been clipping coupons for almost 2 years now and call my mom to tell her about great deals. Today was no exception! Happy birthday mom, I spent TWO CENTS on all of this stuff.

I have proof. A SAVINGS of 103%! Darn taxes forced me to pay two cents. Oh well, I’ll take it! The sad thing is I never pay for anything with cash these days, and it was weird looking in the bottom of my purse for two lousy pennies.

Happy birthday mom! xo

    Wow. How is this possible? I keep hearing about people doing this, but I never get coupons from my paper good enough to get so much stuff for 2cents. Can you break it down?
