I am organ...You are much more organized than I am. I am organized but it takes me 30 minutes to get to any of the stores that I need to go to. So with 2 babies in tow I feel like I'm running on borrowed time. I have tried going at night when my husband is at home but that puts me getting home so late. If I have to hire a babysitter to keep the kids I think that defeats the purpose of the bargains I'm getting. So I usually try to shop more than one day during the week to eliminate being gone during nap time. <BR/>I have a big notebook I carry and then a little file folder ($1 Target purchase) with individual stores. This is better than the way I used to do it and i have eliminated Walmart also. And I definitely take a cooler everytime I go.Tamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13251899293225822676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812208706999245048.post-50110744894887282862008-04-23T20:52:00.000-05:002008-04-23T20:52:00.000-05:00I also use envelopes for each store...it is much e...I also use envelopes for each store...it is much easier that way.

Wal-mart always hated to see me coming...Great job! Wal-mart always hated to see me coming too. <BR/><BR/>I wish we had a better selection of stores in our town. i have to drive 9 miles one way to Wal-Mart, CVS and Dollar Tree. We have a Piggly Wiggly and a dollar General two miles from our house, but that's all.<BR/><BR/>We got to the big city of Trussville. It's about 45 minutes away twice a month or so. They have about the same as you and we do Aldi's while we are there as well.<BR/><BR/>I received preprinted envelops last year for christmas. They have the list on the front as well as my name and a place to write in the store. It also has a place to check if you have a coupon (I do most always). Very cool I thought. Of course I wish not to know what was paid for them! <BR/><BR/>Have a great day! Blessings!!!Marvahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05794915425864527938noreply@blogger.com
