Get Ready for Game Night!!

We probably won't be stocking up on games this year but what a wonderful opportunity to save a ton!! I found this deal through Deal Seeking Mom. Post a comment if you find this useful!!

Toys R Us: Hot Hasbro Games Deal:

Toys R Us has a smokin’ hot deal on Hasbro Games this week. There are seven different games priced at $3.99, and Toys R Us is offering a $10 gift card when you purchase $25. Plus you can use these $2 Hasbro rebates available as well!

Note that the sale is only valid on the standard versions of the games. Character versions like Dora the Explorer, etc., will ring up at a higher price point.

Let's Get Started!!

We all have to start somewhere!! Starting on the coupon game seemed like a huge mountain to climb. I didn't used to go through the mounds of ads we got in the mail till just recently. I just went to the store of my choice and purchased what I needed and crossed my fingers that it was on sale that week. Inspired by a friend and fellow blogger (that you Sammy!), I bit the bullet and looked through ALL of the ads that came in my mailbox. I was amazed!! With all the options we have in the city, I transformed from a loyal one store shopper into super saving mom! With a new baby, and a working student for a husband, I am bound and determined to do my part and spend less on my household budget!! My household spending money is $150 weekly. My goal is to get that down to $100 a week. I'll be sure to keep you up to date on my progress. So here's to coupon-ing and saving money!!
