Does anyone know of a Web site that has coupons on it for groceries? I want to be really frugal at the grocery store. Even though I have the money to pay more, I want to get through these recent food price spikes with only paying the same as I did before. I wouldn't mind printing up a few coupons to do that. I don't get the Sunday paper so that idea is out.

I did manage to go to the store today for a few things and made out decently, but only because fruit is finally in season so it's cheaper.

I got a bag of grapes, 3 plums, 2 nectarines, 6 bananas, 3 large oranges, 3 cans of tomato sauce, a bag of frozen french fries, a 12 pack of Pepsi, dishwasher soap, and some cookie dough all for $20 and some change. I just wonder if I could do even better than that.

I wanted some of the muffins from the HEB bakery, but a 3 pack was $3.19! That's insane. They used be two something.

That's gross to me
I don't want to wash poop in the washing machine. Plus, I live at an apartment complex that doesn't have washer/dryer connections so we have to use the community laundry room. I don't think people would appreciate that.

Most folks just rinse them out initially in the toilet, so there's really not much left when they get washed. Or you can get flushable liners.

As far as the washing machine situation goes, aren't you moving in a month or so anyway?

I move the very last day of August....hopefully. The Army is kinda being goofy right now with their issuing of orders. It could be early September. Either way, we don't have an apartment in Savannah picked out yet so we don't know if we are going to have a washer/dryer there either. Finally, it's still fuckin' gross. I'd rather spend the extra money, kill the environment some more, and not be grossed out every time I have to change a diaper.

I have a feeling you won't find it as gross after a while of doing it. I think it's kinda a parenting thing that while yes, of course baby shit smells, it seems the parents don't mind the smell nearly as much as a 3rd person. I noticed it first hand with my sister and her husband.

I will say though, that diapers would definitely come in much handier out in public places.
