Week 5: Jan 29-Feb 4

So its been a month today since I started keeping track of my savings. I've saved a total of $223.97 in 1 month!

This week was huge for mail and sales! YAY! So lots of updating.

Mail this week was crazy: 6 coupon trains; I think that is the most i've ever had in 1 week. 2 envelopes from websaver.ca, 2 envelopes from save.ca, and I finally got my BOGO (Buy one get one free) Peek Frean cookie coupons. I got 3 and they are on sale this week for $2.50 at SOF (6 boxes of cookies for $7.50, that's $1.25 a box!)

Sales were extra great this week. For the first time ever I saved more than I spent.
