Savings!!!

Yes this blog is about the savings account, you know! that other account next to your checking!? Im not sure about y'all but mine never stays full! lol It gets about 10 dollars added in every month but the way i spend it gets added to checking for alittle extra to my target bill lol.
IN: Save
OUT: Spending
My mission starting this new month is to start saving! I am an avid shopper, I love going into a store and buying alot of things I really don't need. When they made that Confessions of a Shopaholic movie I was first in line to watch it. But in fact its not about what cute clothes they're going to show on there, its about how to cut out the unnecessary shopping. Now I havent always been this bad, when i lived in South Carolina i was one of those moms whose coupons covered the table! I loved basing my menu plan on what was on sale that week in the grocery store. I just strayed alittle and now im looking at the bigger picture of my future.
I want to buy brand new furniture, I want to send my kid to college, i want to buy a new wardrobe, and eventually when my husband gets out of the army i want to own a home! Whatever your reasons may be its time to start saving for our future!
So my goal in the next three months is to first see if i have the will power to save lol, and second is to see how much i can save. I can do it, i know i can. As of now im reading a book by Ellie Kay called 1/2 price living. Because I am a housewife we live on one income so we almost live half priced lol. Its going to teach me how to cut my grocery bill in half, how to cut my bills down in half...shooot im excited, this way when i go to look at new furniture for my house i can pay cash! From savings!
So lets go people! Lets see what we can save!
P.S if you have any tips....please! Let me in on it! lol
