Like Bagels?

I like bagels a lot, but we don't buy them all that often simply due to the cost. We usually get a 6-pack for no less than $1.99 (on sale), but usually they are up to $3.98. But the other day, we were shopping and happened to be in the refrigerated section. Guess what we found there! Yes, bagels. In the cold section. Why, I'm not sure. I guess they possibly thought it was a good idea to put them near the butter and cream cheese. But there we found a  5-pack for $1.59. You might want to check your local store to see if they keep any in the cold section. They're a good deal, and they're delicious!!!

Use It or Lose It

One of the ways I save money is by using the coupons I receive. Many people don't like to bother with coupons, but it really is their loss.
I had received a Kohl's $10 coupon in the mail and had $10 free money from Kohl's that were both about to expire. At this point, many people would not want to drop what they were doing to go shopping, but you know me. I got in the car and went to see what I could find. That was $20, people! I couldn't simply waste it.
I looked around, tried on a few items, and finally decided on this cute new outfit. I tried to get my husband to buy something for himself, but he didn't find anything he liked. So I found a lovely gray blouse on sale for $6, and a cute jacket on sale for $15 to go with it.  I also found a chain necklace on sale for $1.08, if you can believe it. 
With my coupons and an extra 20% off the extra, I got ALL THREE ITEMS for $1.27. How fun it that!
