It was another week of fruits, veggies and quick essentials like milk and bread for us. But hang on, because I plan on doing some big stock up trips this coming week. Shopping and stocking up in bulk allows me to take a week or sometimes more off from major coupon shopping, so that I only have to pick up a few essentials while we eat from our stockpile. This helps me avoid coupon “burnout,” and we still save money while also getting fresh fruits and vegetables.
Do you ever feel like you get coupon burnout? I know I do! Best advice I have for it, is to take a break, and then get back in the game!
Total Spent this week: $20

I definitely understand the coupon burnout! Taking a break is a great idea, Its just hard to not want to grab deals when they are available. I need to break myself from that! Thanks for the advice and linky. Feel free to Link up at my site as well! http://www.thefrugalfreeloader.com/2010/02/week-ending-finale-226.html

I have a question about last week’s SS insert. I bought 4 papers and i only had one SS out of all 4 papers. Then as i was getting ready to clip them, all had expired like it was an old SS. Is that weird?
Who can i contact about getting missed/expired inserts? i would like to get my inserts bcause i pd for them .. hmmm .. help
Contact the paper company. Hope they fix it for you!
When I feel a burnout coming on, I go and shop at Aldi. They don’t accept coupons and usually have great prices on their produce.
