Busy???

When life seems to be throwing so much at you, that you seem to not have anytime for other things how in the world could you save while shopping?  I want to say I haven't mastered this one yet, but as I am typing this thoughts are coming to me.

 So what if you are behind on cutting your coupons, stick the insert in your binder and head to the store with your list.  You might not be able to save as much as you would have if you were completely organized and up to date, but every little bit of savings helps right.  

Plan your day/outings accordingly.  If you are heading to an area and know you have things to do that way, try to do them all in one day.  As an added bonus you get more crossed off your list of things to do, which could free up your time to do other things.  

Glance at your lists and see what do you really "need" this week as oppose to just "want" because it's such a great bargain.
