[quote=Anonymous]Super busy with work and several kids,

- For clothes - especially kids - keep running list of staples you will need, stick to a few brands so you know the general sizing to order on-line, wait for the big sales and then buy. 
- as kids get older, - involve them in meal planning and chores.  it will take more time upfront- but worth it for them to learn and they can help in saving.
- I don't have time for coupons but we do use the gas rewards programms (Giant)  per pp, buy store brand on many things, and buy in bulk
- if you or DH travel for work often, take nutrition bars etc.   .  buy bottle of waters at the drug store next to the hotel. I find its the small items that are not expensable when you travel that can add up to more coffee runs, buying higher price things then when you are home.  Healthier too.     
- repair and maintain things you can  (on your own when possible) to get a couple more years of life out of something
- agree on target card if you shop there often
