Yeah, everyone should already know that if you are shopping at the Teet, you are being raped with prices.

They do have the best selection of fresh produce and meats. Everything else I buy at Wal Mart

Keep your eye on what you are paying there. Most things are great buys, but they will put it in deep without you knowing on certain items.

i haven't read anything in this spread- but if you are a coupon cutter- and lets say you are a Beast coupon cutter- and you save 100 bucks a month- i doubt it but lets say you do- that's saving $1,200 a year.. now at the end of the year- Can you take that and cash it? no, because you already spent it on other stuff probably..

lemme ask you this- have you ever known anyone truly successful that cuts coupons? just raking in the dough from all the $ they are saving --would you rather save $1,200 a year or make an extra $50,000..?

everyone says save money, save money, save money ------ make profit!

who agree making profit beats saving money any day of the week?

the poor have a hard time making profit....stupid things like food and utilities keep getting in the way

do you realize the only difference between an average person and someone of success is the way they think.. dont let your circumstances determine where you are going in life.. you define your destiny

realize that the thought process that got you into trouble (excess bills and etc.) is not going to be what solves it- you have to start thinking differently..

my #1 suggestion = dont take ADVISE (on coupons or anything for that matter) from anyone who isnt in life where you would like to be.. cus they cant help you move up, just keep you where they are at.. cus if they cud- they would have already moved up and out of the spot they are in.. Right?

what determines where we will be in the next 5 years is the company we keep and the books we read..

Money is just something that lets you spend your time the way you want to. The less money you have, the more you have to do with your spare time to save money. Do you fix you own faucet or hire a plumber? I have never seen Donald Trump using a pipe wrench. Do you cut your own lawn or hire a gardener? I have never seen Bill Gates on the business end of a Briggs and Straton.

I totally agree with what you are saying

my saying is....we are who we are because that's who we choose to become

I know this woman, and she saves a bundle. Writes a column for the local newspaper:

I don't think I'll be making a job out of it, but saving some money here and there would be nice. I don't have a second freezer or anything to put meats and things in anyway. I just look at my expenses, and even getting close to minimum stuff, it's really expensive. Any money I save there would most likely be going toward bills or to offset new gas costs.
