2008 TOTALS- SAVINGS & EARNINGS

2008 has come to an end and so it is time to tally my 2008 savings and earnings. I am pleased to see that the total is almost $5500 dollars! One of the biggest ways I saved was in strategic use of coupons at the commissary saving almost $800! My CVS saving were also significant, but we don't live near a CVS anymore. Boo hoo! Walgreens has helped take up some of the slack as I have been getting some good deals there. Another significant way we saved money was in my learning to give DH and the boys their haircuts. We saved over 400 dollars that way! I am looking forward to even more savings in 2009 and plan on trying to reach 6000 dollars!
