Tara Zee Did not know you went to library school, that’s awesome! I used to be a student worker in the library (in the IT department). Worked with lots of librarians over the years, though.

DC, if you use Chrome, there’s an extension called Honey that has a button that appears on check-out pages that actually searches for coupons for you! Saves a lot of time. For sites that rarely have coupons like Amazon, I’ve never scored a discount, but it found a 15% off coupon on JC Penny that enabled me to get more baking items off my friend’s wedding registry for the money I was already planning on spending. :)

And I can’t second the library more.. as a library school graduate, I always promote the library. :)

ImpersonalFinance I brew a pot every morning and love it! Even on thee weekends it’s something I look forward to. Or I should say ESPECIALLY on the weekends because my mornings aren’t so extremely rushed.

I’m all about saving money by brewing coffee at home! And honestly, I never make a purchase anymore without checking my phone first to see if the product is cheaper elsewhere. The only area we could improve upon is planning our meals. We usually plan a week or so, but every now and again we won’t have anything planned for dinner and will end up spending $20 or so on a meal. Not the best, and definitely something we could do better about.

We save a ton of money on coffee, since bf bought his fancy coffee machine. I don’t drink coffee and was a little miffed by the cost of the machine when he bought it (used on ebay, but still expensive). But now the machine has more than paid for itself, since he can make coffee at home and isn’t heading to starbucks all the time.

UgifterMy wife and I HATED the daily “what should we eat” conversation. I think that’s why she took the initiative to start planning our meals for the week. Makes grocery shopping easier, too.
