Drawn to Coupons

I'm just a college kid that loves doodling, playing videogames, and saving money. Mostly saving money. :)

School is out, grades are in, and winter break is heeeere! It doesn’t feel like it with this 76 degree weather though, lol. I hope finals and other end-of-semester/quarter things went well for all of you. I really, really hope that they weren’t as stressful as mine were, but I doubt that that’s the case. :P

Well, I managed to catch a cold, so while I’m being a fever-driven germ factory, I plan to revive my zombie of a tumblr. Woo!

…if I manage to keep from sneezing my brains out.

but school has been CRAZY. I’ve been drowning in all kinds of papers and exams and programs and final projects and whoknowswhatelse. I’ve been trying to post things that I happen to catch when I had a moment, but that hasn’t been too much. I really wish that some of my professors remembered that I do have other classes and that I can’t  devote all of my time to just their class… However, the semester is finally winding down and I don’t have too much more to do. :D I have a project to do tonight and a database to make over Thanksgiving, and then I’ll be done aside from finals! Woot woot! I can’t wait! What about you guys? How is the end of the semester playing out for my fellow college students?

This is up again for those of you who missed it on previous Tuesdays! Goes to the first 10,000 signups!

This week was the opposite of last week, lol. I didn’t win much at all this week, but lots of stuff poured in the mail! Granted, I also didn’t play too many IWGs this week because school is trying to kill me. We’re down to the final month of the semester though! Only four more weeks to go! Thank goodness.

What did you guys win or get in the mail this week?

New coupons! New coupons! New coupons!

I’m a few days late, I know, but I hope you all remembered to go check out printable coupon websites for new coupons and limit resets! Don’t forget, I have a list of some printable coupon sites HERE. 

I’m definitely going to have to scour these tonight and go through my other coupons because my Kroger is having a GRAND REOPENING SALE. It was in a bad spot next to the Walmart in town, so it moved a mile or two down the road. It now has two stories, a Starbucks, a buffet area, a sushi bar, a drive-thru, samples out the ass (Cotsco style!), a huge welcoming area laced in cinnamon,and a giant metal cow outside staring at everyone in the parking lot.

I don’t know what’s going on exactly, but I like it.

I’m sure the prices will go back up to “normal” soon though. Normal for this Kroger is generally quite a bit more expensive than other Krogers I’ve been to. That means I need to make use of these sales nowww.

What about you guys? Any money-saving plans this weekend? (Not doing anything totally counts as saving money too, lol!)
