      My husband and are are 33 years old and 29 years old. We have 50,000 in debt to pay off. I usually spend 280 times 12 on household maintenance, repair, Christmas savings, gifts, blow money and personal care items a year. That’s 3360 and its being really frugal with each category. I need to make that money stretch further and I am hoping to start a grocery emergency fund. I also want to save for better furniture. I believe coupons get to be debt free is the way for me to do it! Thank you for your site!
