Couponing My Way To The Islands!

~Challenge!~

Anyone up for a challenge? If you are new to budgeting and couponing, first set a weekly goal and then work up to monthly goals. Here is the challenge:

1. Check the grocery store circular to see what is on sale
2. Make a 7 day menu including breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks based off of what is on sale
3. Go through your pantry and make a list of everything you need.
4. Go through your coupons and match up what is on sale with what you have on your list
5. Have fun saving money!

It is always good to have an idea of what your bill will be before you even go to the store. That way you know what you should be spending and you won't make any impulse buys.

Another challenge is to write down everything that you save each week. It really adds up at the end of the month!
