After watching "Extreme Couponing" on TLC, I went to my laptop and was up all night looking up possibilities for me to achieve the tremendous savings that the four families featured had done. I signed up for coupon websites, and began my research. Today I am constantly on the look out for deals on toiletries, household items, and especially groceries. I've now got a pantry filled with items for free or less than half the shelf price. I've also been able to try products that I always wanted to buy, but were not worth paying for. These deals are on items we have to buy regularly like toothpaste, and toilet paper. Why pay over $5 for 24 rolls ever again?
I've started this blog to share with family and friends that the deals are out there, just by using a simple coupon. You will have a more sense of comfort knowing that you have sufficient supply of certain items you can't live without, and in the long run will start to see the savings.
Coupons are an alternative to money that manufacturers are offering us, and we either don't take notice, or throw into the recycle bin. Every penny counts, so use coupons, keep an eye out on sales and never pay full price ever again.
