How Do You Know What A Good Deal Really Is?


You do your homework, of course!
You have to research prices and decide what "is" a "good deal".
What is at "great deal".

Here is a link to the type of list you can make for yourself...This is a great tool when shopping at store that might actually mark up items and put them on sale...yeah right!
This was put together by southernsavers.com

She has also put together a blank sheet that you can put your own list together.
Here is the link for that list.

This is a very helpful tool, because with all that life hands us...I don't think I can keep one more thing up in that head of mine!





Target: Deals and freebies for this week

Target is supposed to take stack a manufacture coupon with a store coupon....I have had some trouble at the location in our area...I have gone in 2 times and have met with management that would take some coupons and not others.

It takes alot of time to collect the coupons and shop just to be turned down at the checkout, not to mention the drive.

I have not shopped all summer because of the problem...I decided to post some of the deals, which are fairly good and see if there are any of you who want to test the waters again and report back and let us know how you do..
