This is my shopping trip from last night (1/5/09). I went into Publix to get the Bumble Prime Fillet Tuna that is on sale B1G1 this week. I am a tuna snob so I wanted to get this deal even though I didn’t have a manufacturer’s coupon to really maximize my savings! I did end up buying 2 more boxes of Orville Redenbacher than I planned because their microwave caramel popcorn looked too good to pass up! I spent $11.31 and saved $62.78.

Thanks for coming to Addicted to Saving! Here’s a little bit about me so you can know who’s behind all these posts!
My name is Liza and I began my money-saving journey in the Spring of 2009 as a way to stretch a limited household income. I had lost my job and my hubby was self-employed. I launched Addicted to Saving in November of 2009 and it has grown by leaps and bounds. Since then, my hubby and I have struggled with the ups and downs of two failed adoptions and are now LOVING being parents to our little man Asher who we brought home from Ethiopia in August of 2013. I feel incredibly blessed to be able to help you save money. My goal is that you will have FUN and become empowered to save more and more money each week..
