Total Saved = $134.91
Saved approximately = 80%
FINALLY met my goal and spent less than $60 in a week! It helped that I had already done a lot of spending stocking up over the first two weeks of February. (Week 1, Week 2) But, I was also able to avoid coupon temptation and only used them, for the most part, when I found an AWESOME deal.
I also applied for some great rebates this week and you can read about all of that here.
Below is the breakdown for this week’s savings. If you want a detailed breakdown for a particular store just click on that store’s name.

Total Spent = $212.94
Total Saved = $389.87
Saved approximately 65%
I spent WAY more than I had planned this week, but I was able to stock up on a lot of essentials… diapers, laundry supplies, paper goods, cheese/meats, etc. So, I guess the extra spending was justified. My goal is to buy the bare minimums the rest of the month (just milk, eggs, etc.). This means I will have to resist using my coupons just because I have them. I swear that coupons burn a bigger hole in my pocket than actual money does. 🙂
