You get the picture! I'm amazed at how much I see myself. :) I'm a stockpiler too... and it's my husband that keeps me in check. I don't see how you can be a couponer and not stockpile. :) I enjoyed this post especially because I, too, have been trying to 'reduce' my stockpile by using from it more than adding to. I feel quite proud of myself that I haven't been to Rite Aid yet this week. (But I've been to Meijer (groceries) twice already...) So, blah. I guess I'm not doing so good.<br /><br />I saw the comment from forthemommas.... she's one of my favorite bloggers! :) Keep up the good work, Lydia!Rachel Bearnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8941253261489920628.post-25085722659483011792009-08-26T00:25:32.760-04:002009-08-26T00:25:32.760-04:00I love to stockpile too!

I know what you mean about sometimes you just have to stop buying, unless it is just about free. My vice is cereal. I buy far too much of it. I just can't pass up $.25 cereal!<br />Good luck.<br /><br />ShannonShannon @For The Mommashttp://www.forthemommas.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8941253261489920628.post-71125946676518635562009-08-23T17:36:49.699-04:002009-08-23T17:36:49.699-04:00Thanks for the comment Zelda!

You all must eat lots of jam. <br /><br />I haven't found coupons for jars recently, although I found a coupon box that someone left at my work (back when I still worked full time) and here there were coupons in their for Mason jars. They don't even have an expiration date so I was pretty tickled. I actually have rarely bought jars though. My Mom gave me some since they are empty-nesters and around here I find them at yard sales for free or very cheap. Or sometimes I see them on Freecycle too. If I do figure out where to get coupons, I'll let you know!<br /><br />What is Certo? I've never heard of it.Lydiahttp://thriftyfrugalmom.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8941253261489920628.post-89191163664140041472009-08-22T21:24:07.428-04:002009-08-22T21:24:07.428-04:00Canning - not may folks still doing that - i did 2...Canning - not may folks still doing that - i did 250 jars of Peach jam from our peach trees and got a real smile when i read your post about the corn - sounds like something that could happen at my house - was wondering do u ever find coupons for canning jars or Certo - sure would love to find some - thanks for all your help/work - I appreciate your time n U - Be Safe - ZeldaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8941253261489920628.post-33007413695644936032009-08-22T15:31:53.304-04:002009-08-22T15:31:53.304-04:00Good for you and good luck.
