But I find if I just keep in mind, I can't afford that right now, I buy less. <br /><br />I'll have to get you to share that spreadsheet with me soon.Vinomomhttp://www.vinomom.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4211674678201251588.post-76978684359343031302011-02-01T09:04:57.657-08:002011-02-01T09:04:57.657-08:00Grapes!!!

Something I just now thought of it that I use coupons all the time-and what if you put into your savings account the amount saved by using coupons? For example, if you used $4.50 worth of coupons, you put that amount in the savings account every week. It isn't a whole lot, but it would add up. I think I will tr y that myself.
