The Quest to Save $

It seems that Aron and I have tightened our belt about as much as we can.... or have we? We already clip coupons, shop sale items, buy things in bulk (at Sam's Club), use credit cardv rewards programs (5% back on grocery, pharmacy and even gas), but I have set a goal of learning what else we can do.

I've been researching ways to save more money, and I've come up with some VERY interesting methods:

1. make our own laundry detergent (thank you Becca!)

2. make our own jar/canned goods (applesauce, pickles, etc.)

3. amazon.com grocery shopping for certain items

4. buy coupons online (pay a fraction of the price for coupons online for items we purchase on a regular basis)

I will post more as I come up with them.
