Now that the kids are back in school, money appears to literally be flying out of my pockets at rate faster than I can keep up! LOL The girls have decided this is their year for umpteen extra-curricular activities. We have marching bang, soccer, Little Kids Rock, LSAT Prep…..yea let me stop there before I stress myself out even more. Luckily for me, Kroger is here to help save the day with Money Services.

Money Services is super convenient and can help you save up to .50 cents when you need to cash check & debit cards, pay your bills or buy money orders! I belong to a credit union that is not located in my area and a lot of times I end up getting a large amount of cash to pay for some of the girls activities.

If you’ve been following me a while now, you know that we got a little furkid last December named Murphy. Since Murphy’s become a part of our family I’ve made sure he is being spoiled just like my other kids…LOL! We make sure he has the best food, the best toys and the cutest clothes. Judge all you want, but he’s the son I never had…HAHA!

Seriously, pets just like kids, can get pretty darn expensive! When we first got Murphy he needed his shots and all the stuff that goes with buying a new pet. Each time I came home with some new toy or gadget that the girls and I picked out, I’d have to hear the hubby talk about how much money I was spending. Blah Blah Blah……….

I love finding an amazing deal and before I EVER make a purchase for goods now I always check Groupon. I can’t even begin to tell y’all how much money this site has saved me. I saved over 50% on my daughter’s 7th birthday party, huge discount on an oil change and countless goods along the way. Groupon is saving my marriage! Ok…maybe not saving it but its sure as hell making it easier when I let my husband know how much money I saved versus how much I spent. Like reverse psychology LOL!!! [Read more…]
