Well, I thought I'd try out the blogger world once again. I say once again, though really my only other blog was on my "MySpace" Does anyone remember that site? Ha ha. Well on this blog I plan on discussing healthy lifestyles, recipes, couponing, and eating green all on a thrifty budget.
So first, I thought I'd introduce myself to everybody. My name is Victoria and I'm 28. I just got married to my love 2 years ago. I just recently bought my first home...well recently as in 1 year ago. My how time flies! I also have an 8 year old step son who keeps me busy. I have a mini zoo going on here, with One American PitBull Terrier named "Rocky", a bearded dragon named "Daddy", Two cats, one rescued from a shelter and one adopted from a friend, named "Bebe and Que", Two red eared slider turtles (you'd have to ask my step son on their names), and a fish tank of rescued feeder fish. I'm going to school majoring in Psychology while working a part time job as a deli clerk. Obviously with all this in mind, I'm not over here sipping on red wine and asking the butler for more caviar! So I try to pinch my pennies where I can all while living the lifestyle I desire. I recently got into couponing which I discovered is like an underground cult I never knew existed! That all started after I watched "Extreme Couponers" on Netflix. I thought, "hey, I wonder if I could do that!" So I did a little research on it and found myself saving at least 50% every time at the grocery store. My highest percent of savings was 74% which I'm still proud of but have never been able to get that high since then!
One thing I love about couponing isn't just saving money, but trying new things! Coupons sort of MAKE you try new things. Actually when a company comes out with a new item, you can usually try that item out for nearly free or free which is awesome because I don't even know if I'll like it or if it's worth the money! So free is always good. ;)
I suppose I'll end my introductory post here. And with each post I look forward to meeting new people with similar interests. So, until next time... ;]
