Thursday Round-Up – School Supplies Already?

Ya’ll must think I’m crazy but I’ve got school supplies on the brain. School starts back up for my kiddos in a little over a week!! They are on a year-round schedule for school and this will be their 2nd year of this schedule. It still seems a bit strange, they’ve only been out of school for 3 weeks now. I’m still holding out hope that Target will get their school supplies display out soon. That’s where I find the best deals and can get the back to school shopping done quickly.

Hmm…which reminds me, I need to go order some LL Bean backpacks right now. Their backpacks last forever (one has lasted 5 years now) but the kids do eventually outgrow them. The old backpacks will get handed down, and the older kids will get new backpacks this year.

I don’t know about your stores, but my local grocery stores have had some pretty decent deals lately. Not anything spectacular like triple coupons (I wish!), but still some good sales have been going on. It makes the rising grocery and gas prices just a little less painful. If you don’t know what the deals are this week make sure to check out the deals I have listed a bit further down.

Survey Results Are In!

Last week I polled my readers on their coupon usage. I asked:

How Long Have You Been Couponing?

  • 20% of you have never couponed before
  • 10% are newbies and have been doing it less than 6 months
  • 10% have been using coupons for 6-12 months.
  • 10% have been at it for 1-2 years
  • 50% have used coupons more than 3 years

This week I’ve got a new poll up – look on the right of the site to make your vote. I’ll reveal results next week (so far I’m kind of surprised by how the results are turning out!).
