WHEN TO BUY! WHAT'S THE PRICE I WILL PAY FOR ITEMS?

Sometimes when you are couponing it can be very confusing with all the different coupon match-ups. Even though bloggers will post the match-ups nothing is more frustrating then using up your coupons and 2 weeks later there is a super great deal you should have saved them for. While I can't predict the sales and coupons I can tell you that store sales go in 6-8 week cycles. Usually the coupons that come out in the newspaper or online are a few weeks behind the sale.

So what I do is keep a list of my "rock bottom buy now prices."

I will not pay over these prices because I know that another sale will come around and if I hold out I will get a better deal. Hope this makes sense.

(If you want I can give the complete list...this was just a few items to give you an idea.)
