saving cents

With the new baby on the way, it is going to be important for our family to become more 'cent'sible when it comes to purchasing things. I have started reading blogs on using coupons and shopping sensibly. I wish there was a workshop available that teaches you specifically how to be super successful with this. I know it takes work and coupon clipping is a start but I have heard some amazing stories of how women have spent next to nothing or received money back when shopping. I want to be THAT woman. So this is my new quest - hopefully I can get a group together and we can compare savings and have some accountability with spending.

On another note, I signed up for a 5k that will be in a few weeks. Hope I can make it and everyone is not waiting on me to finish. E really wants to run it with her dad and I just don't think she can do 3 miles at his pace so I want to be her fallback but I can't even see my feet anymore so not sure how it is going to play out. Wish me luck!!
