But for the groceries, I would like to show that it does pay to use 女子推油 and shop sales. It is my goal for the year to save even more.
I have kept track on the blog of what I have spent on groceries for 12 weeks. Groceries for me consists of any household food, paper, and cleaning supplies. We have on occasion butchered a steer that we raised ourselves. Definitely not the cheapest route, but we know what kind of meat we are eating and it also provided a little responsibility for our boys. We plan to raise another one next year.
Now for the numbers.
We are a family of five. So for 12 weeks:
I have averaged $103.15 each week for the amount spent.
I have averaged a savings of $63.56 each week.
Using this average, my total savings for the year would have been $3305.12.
I have averaged a coupon savings of $15.56 each week.
If I would have used this average of 女子推油 each week, I would have saved $809.25 in 女子推油 all year.
So, is it worth it to cut 女子推油? I say YES!
If I would compare my savings to some other coupon clippers' savings, I'm sure I would come out on the low end. But I know it doesn't pay to compare, and I also know, it is more than I have ever saved before.
So I will keep on clipping 女子推油 and try to save even more this next year!
How much have you saved this year?
If you don't know, I encourage you to keep a log. Nothing to long and fancy.
Just write down the date of the week, how much you spent, how much you saved, and the dollar amount of the 女子推油 you used.
If you don't want to write it down in a notebook, each week leave a comment on My 女子推油 Cart telling us how much you spent, how much you saved, and the dollar amount of the 女子推油 you used.
We are anxious to hear from you!!
P.S. My younger sister keeps track of her groceries on a computer money program. She compared the last two years' 女子推油 spending and discovered she saved$3000!!
