Okie dokie guys, please be patient with me while I whine for just a minute, and then I'll show you how I grabbed everything above for just $5. promise.

Lately I've talked to countless friends, acquaintances, and *former* PPP readers who've told me they've chosen to “quit” couponing because it's just not worth it, nothing they ever buy is on sale, couponing takes too much time, or they just don't want to do it. And, truly, if they've got money coming out of their eyeballs, I'm all for quitting.

However, for some folks, there may not be enough money in the budget and they really do need to coupon. But they decide to skip out on it because they just don't want to take the time to pinch a few pennies here and there. I get that. Really, I do.

But here's the thing: if you're struggling financially and don't have abundance, there is no other place in your family's finances than your grocery budget that YOU have such control over. You can't just cut your mortgage in half, trim your car payment by $400 a month, or quit paying your electricity bill. But, you can decide how much you want to spend at the grocery store, and it's one area that you have COMPLETE power over.

So, no excuses.

YOU CAN DO THIS.

I promise, if this girl can be a penny pincher, I know you can too.

‘Nuf said.
