Class on Couponing

I have been asked by several people if I would teach a class on couponing. I would be happy to if we could get at least 5 people together. If you would be interested, just leave me a comment. Thanks!

Think coupons are a waste of time?

For the next few days we are going to be talking about couponing for groceries. Please post any questions you may have.

If I had a dollar for every time I heard, "I don't have time to do coupons" or "you don't really save enough to make it worth while" I'd be a wealthy lady.

Here are two of my recent grocery shopping trips for you to decide if coupons are worth it!

Funny Story~ while I was checking out I noticed the lady behind me rolling her eyes when I told the cashier I had some coupons. My order totaled 39.65. I handed the cashier my coupons and when she was finished my total was $11.61. I kindly turned to smile at the woman behind me whose mouth was hanging open now and she said "how did you do that?"  Coupons!
