First and foremost, with all of my usual joking aside, I hope you’re having a seriously awesome Memorial Day. Please take a second (or more) and lift your servicemen up in a thought or a prayer, because we seriously live in one of the most amazing counties in the world. We live in a country where we’re free to disagree, we have clean water, access to school, housing, nice roads, and that’s pretty incredible, especially coming from 2 developing nations (Haiti and Trinidad).
So moment of silence.
Annnnd, I’d like you welcome you guys back to the blog. I took Sunday off of writing to clean, do some wedding things, take a 5-mile trail run with a friend (where I did not sprain my ankle, hallelujah), so I hope you can forgive the absence while I caught up on life and things.
So, I’m sure, you’ve gathered from the blog that budgeting and saving money is something that I’m starting to get into. Yes, I know it should have been something I had been into for a long time, but when I was not making as much money, it was easier to be short-sighted. Now that I’m getting married, and it’s not just me, it’s important to save, get into good habits, and get rid of that lurking student loan debt that I want gone ASAP.
So yesterday, I discovered the Cartwheel App from Target.
Numero uno, Super Target is one of the best and cheapest places, in my opinion to get your groceries. Will you get the incredible selection that you will get at Harris Teeter? Absolutely not. But I’ve been ridiculously impressed with the price, and the selection is sometimes randomly good. Additionally, it’s not Wal-Mart so that’s a plus.
So I’d been seeing this Cartwheel app pop up on Facebook, and additionally a lot of my mommy blogger friends have mentioned the app when they’re talking about saving moola.
So finally, during yesterday’s trip I used the app, and was able, between the app and picking some good stuff, to save almost $15.00 on a nearly $200 order. YIPEE!!!! Why did I never discover this awesome app before?
No matter, I think it’s amazing, and if you’re into saving money and you shop at Target, download this app and get to saving! It’s fun!

I am going to check out this app stat! I love finding new ways to save money!
Do it and hit me up and tell me what you think!
How have I not already told you about this!? This is my fave app in the world. People get really annoyed at me cause I scan every barcode in the store to see if there’s a coupon for what I want. Spoiler: if it’s a Target brand product, there’s almost always a coupon. You can also print out more coupons at Target’s website. Tell me you have the red card? You get 5% off your total every. single. time. Sorry if I sound like a Target commercial, but I’m kind of obsessed and all these little ways to save have made it possible for me to never have to go to Walmart. That’s the dream.
Ughhhh Walmart.
