Living Within the Means God has Provided for you.

I have been a stay at home mom since 2003, although living on one fairly small income has been challenging, God has always provided for our family. With a Gross income of aproximately $20,000 we own our own home, actually have two running vehicles and want for very little. Lots of people complain about not having enough money to pay their bills. I have a hard time understanding why. On a monthly basis, we make a mere $1, 356, I had no clue til recently how low that really was. Its funny, but being Poor is more of a mentality than an actuality for most of us.

Free stuff

Today we made a trip to Meijer, I got LOTS of goodies, but my favorite is the 10 for 10 sale get the 11th free, I spent nearly $30 on those items. However, I got the benefit of several coupons to make up some free things. The Betty Crocker Cookie pouches were Free with Coupons for 50Cents off doubled, so not only did I get 3 items free, I also got two additional packs of cookies for free too.

Not Cookies aren't the best choices, but for free how can you go wrong. We got lots of side dishes, cereal, yogurt, and other goodies, but I just can't beat Free.
