My First CVS Haul
Sunday, January 24, 2010 at 10:08PM in saving money 
$83.50 OC, $49.12 OOP, 41% Saved!Recently I became determined to start putting in a little bit of extra effort to save as much money as possible. In the past, when looking at how other people managed to clip coupons and find great deals, it seemed a little complicated. And, despite there being a plethora of tutorials and FAQs online dedicated to the subject, I was never really sure where to start.
Today I decided to just dive in, and I am so glad I did! I'm sure I could have gone about this in a better way and ended up saving even more, but I know I will get better over time.
Rather than making this a how-to, I am just going to explain how I got myself started and how I managed to save the money that I did today. If you're interested in doing the same, maybe my story can help you figure out the best way for you to start. Or, if you're a coupon-clipping, deal-finding, money-saving pro, then by all means please share any tips you may have!
