Being thrifty

So this post won't be on running(that will be tonights post).  This post is about me learning to be a little more thrifty.  I have used coupons from time to time but really haven't been faithful to it.  Clipping coupons is work! And it's kinda time consuming! But once you get a little system down it is so worth it.  I only clip coupons for the items I normally use but will clip some if I think that it's worth it and only if I know I will use the product.  Kinda exciting actually.  
These were my coupons for my last shopping outing.  And what I didn't use and knew I wouldn't, I just placed on the shelves for somebody else to use.  I know, I'm kinda cool like that. 
Anywho, do any of you use coupons when you shop?  If so do you have any tips to share?  Please feel free to leave me a comment because I could use all the help I can with this =)

Just a little running side note.  I did try to run yesterday for 400meters and it wasn't bad at all.  Today I am going to walk/run for 45min and just see how that goes.  I will give an update tonight.

  1. I'm not a coupon user - should be as I know it would save me tons! My husband buys lots of food that is likely to have a coupon, but I don't buy a lot of coupon type items (produce and then store brands). I should look for coupons for things like Fiber One granola bars - I don't buy them often, but I bet there's a coupon for when I do buy them.

    Glad to hear your short run went alright. Hope it continues to feel better and you can get back to running - it's like torture isn't it! Hugs!
