Beauty Products Spending Slloooooow Down



I don't need anymore makeup, nail polish or discretionary toiletries for the remainder of the year.
Yes, there are always lots of good deals to be had on these items, but I don't need them! And so for the duration of 2013, I won't be spending much if any money on them.  Now of course, if I can get them for free, great! Or super cheap...that's great too!  But I realize how much I spend on these items, even though I get GREAT deals but I just don't need anymore.

I have close to 50 bottles of nail polish, which I know is a small amount compared to some but just enough for me.  I have enough to wear polish every day for the rest of the year and not wear the same color twice in over a month. For any makeup or polish item, I will not purchase unless the items are 50 cents or less.  For hygiene products (tampons, pads, etc.. which I have plenty of), they must be $1 or less.  Maximum spend per month? $15.  And after that, I'm done!

This includes fancy lotions and potions and yes, even body sprays and perfumes...which I love! I am just going to have to find a way to get these next to nothing...samples perhaps?

Why am I doing this?  I have some big goals I am working on that will require me to be more focused than ever with my money and my time. So I am making adjustments to reach these goals and this is the first thing on the chopping block.

The 9 Cent Meal



This is why I love couponing and saving money!

Couponing to me is a hobby. I am on a relentless pursuit towards financial independence and saving money is definitely helpful toward that goal. I am a very strategic person and strategic shopping to me is not only beneficial but very exciting.

Today I realized how well I have been doing with saving and investing. I work from home, and lunch time rolled around and since it was a gloomy day I had a taste for some comfort food.  I didn't want to go to the store and purchase anything on a whim nor buy any yucky fast food loaded with unnecessary calories.   I went in my pantry and found some Campbells Slow Kettle Soup (which is delicious by the way) and in my fridge I found some Pepperidge Farm garlic bread.  Perfect! Yummy and comforting...soup and garlic bread.  I realized I purchased the soup for free, using $2 off coupons I had that doubled during a Harris Teeter super doubles event, the bread I got for just 50 cents a box during a sale plus coupon at Safeway.  #winning.

My meal cost: About 9 cents.

Right now, I have don't have to purchase toothpaste, deodorant, toothbrushes, razors, feminine wash and a host of other products for at least 8 months to over a year. My stockpile has grown greatly and most of these products I've gotten for free or close to it.  And that's a good feeling.

I believe anyone can incorporate couponing and deal finding, its a $20-$60 and hour job.

The purpose of this blog? I don't know. I just want to share how saving money is practical and is beneficial in everyday life.
