Frugal Fridays!!

Oh, this is going to be one of my FAVORITE Frugal Friday posts!!! It's not just because I think I got an amazing deal, its because it involves shopping for myself! :) As you know, Old Navy is one of my favorite spots to shop. I really like their clothing for the entire family. I also enjoy being signed up to receive multiple emails regarding sales, coupons, etc!

I received a VIP email from Old Navy saying this:

SAVE 75% off ALL Adult Outerwear on Saturday 11/19 from 12-5pm only!!!

I thought 1. That's an awesome deal. 2. I REALLY need a winter coat 3. Old Navy has some really cute coats! 3. Hey, I have some $10 old Navy Cash to redeem!!! If you are wondering what $10 Old Navy cash is, this is it...They periodically give these out when ringing you up sometimes and(typically a few weeks later) you can redeem them. So for every $20 you spend, you can use your $10 Old Navy Cash..SWEET!!!

Alright, on to the fun part. This is what I purchased:


Regular Price: $79.94

Regular Price: $79.94

 Regular Price: $59.94

 Regular Price: $89.94

After a Savings of 75% off and $20 Old Navy Fast Cash, I spent.....$60.86 for 4 wonderful coats!!!!! Amazing!!!

Tip: Buy a Sunday Newspaper!!! It's worth it!

I mentioned before that I am on a journey to saving money, paying off debt and becoming as frugal as possible. So, I have decided to invest $1.50/week into getting the newspaper. This was my VERY FIRST time purchasing a newspaper. LOL Really, it is. I mean I used to sit at the table in my younger days and help clip coupons with my dad on Saturdays, I just thought it was something fun to do. But now, I will be adopting this tradition and have my son help. He loves helping! So I an sure he will be excited to add this to our list of things to do together.

Ok, so I know you say “duh, people have been doing this for years”. Yes, I know! But I wasn’t! I was only using coupons that were emailed to me! But guess what, you can combine coupons! You can use store coupons, on top of manufacturer’s coupons!

I was SO anxious to see what kind of coupons I could get my hands on! As I opened the newspaper, I was super excited every time I came across a coupon that was of use to me and my family! Toothpaste, paper towel, diapers, wipes, nail polish, baby Aveeno baby wash, and the list goes on and on! These are products that I purchase monthly!

I am so excited to go shopping! I now can say “YES” when the cashier asks me “Do you have any coupons”?

Yayy!!! I’ll be back to share with you next Friday how much money I saved once I combine them with store coupons and savings club cards!

Frugal Friday's

Fridays are dedicated to helping YOU save money! I will list out a tip of the day in hopes that my tips will help save you some dough!

1. Let the deals come to you!!!

Below I have listed some of the sites I have signed up to receive emails from. Typically I receive a email from these companies twice a week. Most of the time, each email contains awesome deals or coupons! I check each email, print the coupons or immediately take advantage of the deal (if it applies to me). I take full advantage of as many deals as possible. Sure, it is annoying to receive so many emails. But the benefits outweigh the cost of only having to click delete. Remember, I have GOALS! I really want to be DEBT free and a HOMEOWNER in my very near future.

Sign up and be patient! Trust me, it is really worth receiving the abundance of emails.

Frugal Friday's

I think that if I could, I would change my middle name to Frugal...seriously.  Past post prove that to me, it is very important to save $$$ where you can.  Now lets be clear, I am NOT CHEAP, however, I have found that using coupons, joining discount/frequent buyer programs and shopping on the for sale racks only- make a huge impact on saving $$$.

I give my mom credit on my non materialistic lifestyle. She raised us to be thankful for what we have and to not fall into the "have to have designer" pit.

I have so many financial goals, that need to be reached - and being frugal throughout my life will definitely pay off! My husband and I are in the process right now of taking the necessary steps to reach our goals of living a healthy, debt free lifestyle so that we will be able to secure not just our futures, but for our kids as well.

So anyway, I have decided to dedicate future Friday posts exclusively for subjects related to being FRUGAL!!! So, if you are ready to save some money, hit my blog up on Fridays for tips on HOW TO SAVE!!!!!!
