Free Money-Coupons 101

With coupons you save money. Where is that money? Let's say you have $200.00 to spend on food this week to feed the family and buy cleaning supplies, dog food and all of the things you need at the grocery.

You carefully set meal menus and select items to buy with your coupons. When you go to the store did you spend the $200.00? Or did you come in under budget? Did you spend that on a splurge item? Or did you take home the extra money?

Last week, I noted the cost of groceries and the savings the coupons brought. The grocery receipts are wonderful because they do this for us. I saved 36% on the total bill. Now since I consider this my job and income, I saved even more because I paid no income tax-federal or state or social security on this savings. This add on value is at least worth 15%.

I have made a promise to myself. I will take some of the money coupons save and put it into a special savings account. If I only take 5% to 10% of this money, I will get a bonus.

The cost of gasoline is likely to use up the wonderful savings coupons bring. I will not let that happen to my little percent that I want to save.
