Frugal Friends Come Together

Savvyteacher and I have been talking for quite some time about ways to save money. She is looking for more ideas, as she is a third year teacher and I am always looking for the best bargain. She is fairly organized and able to complete a project. I like to start things, but I struggle with perseverance.
This makes us a good match.
My friend, mitwife mentioned that I should check out this thing called "CVSing" a few weeks ago. I didn't know how amazing this could be. I quickly shared with savvyteacher. She loves freebies! We agreed to try it out. Mitwife referred me to Money Saving Mom to learn how.
We read.
We thought.
We bought the Sunday paper.
We clipped coupons.
We met at CVS...and had a ball.
