I'm just curious when you add up all of this do you take into account how much you spend to buy coupons on Ebay and buying extra papers. Obviously you saved a tremendous amount of money....I hope to someday get to that point but would be interested to see in the accounting any money you spent to buy coupons or papers or magazines....

ReplyDeleteI just started buying coupons on eBay. I will not spend more than 2.00 for a set of 20 coupons. Also I go recycling bin diving for the majority of my coupons. :)
I have a deal with some gas stations to give me their remainer sunday papers that did not sell. ;)
As for magazines- I never buy All You. Im just not into that yet. Maybe someday.
Oh to add- in the Boise area, there is a couponer deal for their newspapers You get 10 Sunday papers for $13/month or something like that.
