I really have to stop shopping for a bit :)

[lizamarie]

LOL..not so much of a brag but also a brag of my inventory supplies

So I keep saying that I have to stop shopping and now after taking some inventory of my supplies I really don't need anymore or have the space for it......
laundry washes = 407 loads
liquid fabric softener = 534 loads
20 bottles of conditioner
10 bottles of shampoo
14 bottles of aveeno body wash
a lifetime worth of razor blades
12 bottles of green clean
6 scrubbing bubbles cleaner
the whole top shelf of my clothes closet is filled with toilet paper and more on the floor and also on floor a year supply of kotex

and the list could go on and on......and its just ME AND 1 CAT...lol
so I will still look for deals but if I don't need it I won't be buying it.....maybe I will save more money by not buying more than I need

[hollyquaiscer]

Yep I say that every week but I just can't help myself For the last week (unless it's for fruit,veggies or milk) if it costs me more that .50 I'm not buying it Free is even better, but when I look in the cupboard
I hear ya!!!!

Nice Job! LOL, but when everything is so cheap, it's SO hard to stop!

[Marteli]

Why dont you start buying and donating?? that could be a good solution ... and is a win win .. you keep buying (which we love doing it) and doneted it to ppl that needs it and can'y afford it ... we dont really spent much money and get lots of things ... just an option

[lizamarie]

I agree Marteli..I have donated to a women's shelter and I give alot of stuff to my step-niece as she has 4 kids and a husband so I give them tons of stuff through out the year...got 6 boxes of corn flakes for $6 so she's getting 5 and my step-mom is getting 1 box....and a co-worker said she might come by and buy from my store ..lol

my babysitter does not want money from me, instead she just want stuff from my stockpile, I love it , she got a good supply of kotex, tide and dove items. It is a win win and we both are saving $$

It`s so hard to stop when there are so many good deals!

[Spikesfrugalside]

I knew that it would be a loosing battle as it's tough to say no to a great deal so I too have been sharing the bounty with others...that way it's a win/win all round!!

Excellent idea! I love how couponing has evolved into other things such as bartering, trades, donating to shelters, etc. It's not just that we are couponing, we are supporting and helping each other in different ways.
Kudos to all the generous SC's

I love it! I too have taken a break from the every day things that I have a big stock of and don't need to be buying ALL the time If I have a FPC then I will get it but if I have to pay more then taxes and I don't need it or won't in the next 6 months I won't get it. I am just becoming to frugal and practical to spend the money Proud of you for saving that money, you aren't really saving money if you are buying more then you'll use or need!

i have taken a break from shopping too-only for health reasons in my family -my mom is in the hospital and i am visiting her a lot-so no shopping for me living off my stockpile-only got some fresh fruit and veggies the other day

[carlyincanada]

I hear ya!! My list is alot shorter lately...just meat & fresh fruit & veggies this past week!! but nice to have the stockpile so we have more time for boating & not having to go out to buy stuff saves time & money!!

I have enough deoderant to supply a large village of men! I will donate, I am in the midst of getting everything together.
