What a morning!
This morning i woke up bright and early (ok, it wasn't even bright yet, that's how early it was) to go to Albertson's to get in on the post cereal sale today. My Albertsons is so wonderful! You're only allowed to do 3 transactions in a row but they opened a register just for me and then closed the line behind me so that i could do all my 15 transactions in a row! The bagger put all my cereal up in rows of 5 boxes (i was doing 5 boxes/transaction) Then put them all in boxes according to what cereal they were. SOOOOO awesome of them! Not to mention i spent about $20 on 50-some boxes of cereal!!! Saving over $200!!!! WHOOT WHOOT! We now have over a years supply of cereal! (would have gotten more but we calculated how much we would eat by when they expire so it worked out pretty perfect! :-)

Feels good...
The last few weeks our second freezer has gone from -costing more to power than whats actually in it to.....
.....Pretty well stocked if you ask me. Including 45lbs of ground beef! YAY! It's a WONDERFUL feeling to have that much stocked up!

Faith is like a little seed....
When planted it will grow!
Last week in Primary Landen planted his very first little seed and waited and waited for it to grow. Well today, as we were watering it, guess what we found?! That's right! 4 or 5 little green stems! Landen was SOOOO excited! He wanted me to put it down so he could watch it grow! :-) He was so proud of it and i was so very excited for him! I don't even have a clue what it is but Landen informs me its "just a flower."

February's Budget in Review
I pulled out all my receipts for February to toss out the ones we don't need and thought i would make a grand total for the month of February. So are you ready for this?! (Warren, i suggest you stop reading right about.................... HERE..................)
Grand total spent = $ 276.83 (don't drop your jaw just yet!) This total includes all our groceries, toiletries and even clothing! This total does not include $31.50 in rebates (hopefully getting next week), 8 MOVIE TICKETS, and $25 in target gift cards. SOOOO if you were to subtract all of that, it would come to about $148.33 (pricing movie tickets at $9 each)
Grand total SAVED = $589.11!!! Wowsers!
Yes, i spent more than usual for last month, but with our tax refund, it was worth it. Oh, but this price didn't include our new $800 toy and Landen's $300 toy (to be posted shortly)
All in all, it was a great month, and i think savings wise, March has already beat out February. And less out of my pocket as well! GOTTA LOVE THOSE COUPONS! :-)
