My wife... the Home Economist

In a break from the Amelia shrine, I would like to shed some praise on my wife... The Home Economist!

First check I would like let you know that Sondra is becoming a true coupon clipper! Check out the some of the fruits of her most recent efforts.

Before coupons = 97.02 After coupons = 62.49
It's kind of hard to see everything in the picture, but there is lots there. I know... your thinking, "wow!" - that's what the guy at Wal-mart said too.

It's amazing how many ways you can save money if you work at it- she has just started to scratch the surface of her ability to be thrifty. Sondra has also been working on planning all of our meals ahead- working meals around the best coupons. We have also been talking about taking a few days of the week to have a meal without meat.. I'm not sure yet, but she has a few tasty sounding ideas.

Dakota is not big on meat, so we have lots of tasty meatless dishes, if you are interested. :)
