Raising Three Little Princesses

In a lot of areas, Utah’s cost of living is quite low but right now one annoying thing is that Utah’s gas prices are over 20 cents a gallon higher than the national average. According to gasbuddy.com, Utah’s prices are the 4th highest in the nation! Last year it cost us on average $20 to [...]

This week’s Thrifty Shopper post is pretty bad. I have two pictures out of 3 shopping trips and I lost all my receipts so I can’t completely break down the deals. At least I use my American Express card to buy almost everything (so I can get money back each year!) So I know how [...]
