i know its not good to transfer addiction, addiction runs in our family, i could easiy spend every day in casino or drink  alocohol.   thank god i stay away from them,    I do have addiction to online games and such but thats been forever and have slowed down alot.

My new addiction is coupon clipping and bargin shopping.   I am a little obssesive about it now.  I never used coupons, but in last week, i went from small little organizer to Huge binder with baseball card sleeves filled with coupons.  

I search all the great websites out there on how to get stuff really cheap and FREE.     At acme i saved way over 100 in sales and coupons and even got 20 to spend on next order,  at cvs, walgreens and walmart i can't even tell you how much i got for free, i'm loosing track.   

Oh and on side note, i finally got a job,  I work nite stock at bath and body works at oxford valley mall.  mmmmm one of my fav stores

You like that?

You should try thrift shopping!

It's the best thing ever.

i sometimes do,  not so much for myself but on wed i go to salvation army for the kids see what kind of goodies i can find half off.    few weeks ago i almost started crying in there though.   i need a winter coat i tried on the ones i liked and ALL of them were too big,  i got upset because before they were all  to small so it kinda felt very odd and i haven't been back since then, i don't want to feel lost in there with sizes.  maybe i'll start again

You go girl! Sounds like a money saving addiction to have so that can not be that bad. Keep us posted of the good deals!

Congrats on the 100lbs loss Kimmie! that's awesome.

I too have become a coupon FREAK. I actually made a spread sheet yesterday of all my coupons so that I can catalogue and organize them.

Not a bad addiction to have if you have to have one.

Oh yeah!  Thrift shopping is the best...Norm turned me on to that a couple of years ago. 

Congrats on the new job!!  Now, the key is to NOT buy them out of all the stock you just put out on the shelves!!

Kim,

That is sooooooooooo awesome!!!  I love coupons, especially when something is on sale and then you have a coupon...you can't beat that.  My mom was famous for shopping at 3 and 4 supermarkets with all her coupons.  Sometimes they paid her for buying a product!!!  I'm not as good as her, but I try.

Would you mind sharing your websites that you're finding free stuff or more coupons?? 

Karen
