I am starting this blog bcuz I want to save..I don't want to be on TV, I don't want to survive a nuclear explosion in my basement and I don't want to build a house out of toothpaste tubes..I want to have a few things "stockpiled" and save some money

Why Do You Want To Start
I got into this bcuz I saw a blog called "Couponing To Disney" while I was searching saving for Disney World..I wanted to go so bad this year and it just wasn't in the budget..We took the kids last year and said that it would be an every couple a year thing...well I wanted to go, no I needed to go....to most people that sounds really silly, I know, but it's been a rough couple of months..no, nothing super tragic happened..I still have a house, a husband and two wonderful kids...It just seems that every time we took one step forward we get pushed two steps back...Keira was watching the Disney vacation dvd again one day and it just made want to get there..so I decided that I was gonna coupon my way there..I was gonna set the budget, save money and surprise Shane with a trip..(that didn't work out, but it was a good idea)..what started out as a vacation has turned into a challenge, a game, sometimes almost a high...I can't wait to see the register tape and see how much I was able to save and how much I "made" that trip..I started taking the money I saved out of the bank account anyway and putting it into a separate savings account to earn interest..since last year I never would have really used a coupon, I figured this money would have been "spent" anyway...
