I'm anxious for the start of the year. No, I don't plan on starting some new diet or quitting a bad habit, but I want to see how much money I can save in one calendar year. For now, I am looking at a goal of $200 by the end of the year. I am sure I can do it, but in all honesty, I have NO idea how much I save on a regular basis since I don't keep track.

So what can I save money on? Anything! Today I went to pick up the boys Christmas shirts and pjs for them and their cousin, Declan. First time the boys will be wearing matching shirts, and first time matching pjs! Oh, Sonja, watch out! ;)
They had some sales on, and I also signed up for a discount card since the bill was a little higher. Today, I already saved $45.50! I won't tell you what it cost me though!

So, I'll be keeping track of how much I saved with coupons and sales. Can't be that hard, can it?


Here are a few deals I have come across the last few days.

  • $10 off the new Up movie by Pixar. Excellent timing as it is on our Christmas list for the J man.
  • 77kids has free shipping, today only.
  • Head on over to the WalMart site for 50 free photo prints, using the code 50MOM
  • Everyone has seen the Snuggie, whether it be on infomercials or talk shows making fun of them. Well, now, instead of spending money on it, you can get one FREE! Go on, get one...and tell me if you love it.
  • Love coffee? Love McDonalds? Every Monday from 7am-7pm, November 16-29, McDonalds is giving free small coffees out.
  • Until November 19, head into a Town Shoes with this coupon for your free Calvin Klein Euphoria perfume or toilet water. He he he...

There you go! Anyone else have some good finds?
