My latest challenge

I have recently signed up for The Grocery Game. Rico and I have made a serious decision and started a serious program (more on that later, another of my challenges) to get out of the "nagging" debt that keeps hanging around (you know, that few thousand bucks that just gets easier and easier to look at every month?), so I thought this would be a good way to help towards that goal. It involves a small investment of time and money. The time to clip coupons and the money to pay for a coupon organizer and a Sunday newspaper for the coupons. OH, and the subscription to the game itself, which is minimal right now, as we are on a trial. This week, our savings was $15 and change. And all day long, I've been telling Rico "Here, have some. It was free" or "Isn't this good? It was on sale". I'll update my progress and let you know if it's really worth the time and effort. Rico's only gripe? Having to spend money on the sorry excuse that passes for a newspaper in this town!
