Waiting for....
This amazing purchase I made!! I love my coupon binder I have right now...but just for the fact that it organizes my coupons!! But now I will love it even more!!! This is such an amazing product!! I can wait to get it!!!! If you want one got to Stylin' Binders!
An amazing purchase!!
So I have always had a good food stock at my house...and my freezer has been pretty full ( so full I have had tape on it since we bought our house! I know pathetic) Since I started couponing I have really needed a freezer!!!! And now thanks to craigslist and a very nice man who waited for me to come get it I have a new Freezer!! Yay!!!!
How I coupon!
Organize
What I needed for my binder :
Baseball card holders - 2 packages
Clear sheets- 1 package
Sheet Dividers with pockets & tabs- 4 packs
Binder with a zipper - You dont want all your hard work falling out or getting wet!!!
Where do I get the coupons
Newspapers!!
Redplum.com
Smartsource.com
Coupons.com
BettyCrocker.com
Target.com
And so many other websites!!! If I need to buy something I look for a coupon first!!!
Make sure to send for free samples!! Who wouldn't want a free sample!! And they send coupons too!!!
Is it hard to coupon?
Couponing is time consuming but there are so many blogs/websites you can use to help you get great deals! It is fun to challange yourself and go find those good deals! For me I like to try to plan out my grocery trips before...but then I also bring my binder with me- because you can always find those great deals!! When I shop I like to make sure I am saving the most so I watch the prices, and try to get things for free,basically free, or make money on the items!!!
Let me know what questions you have!!! I will be posting different things I buy and hopefully you can get the same deals!! Let me know if you find any good deals!!!!! It is always great to share~
Hi my name is Sarah and I am a couponaholic!
So I am just beginning in this wonderful world of being frugal and have had a very eye opening experience! I just became a stay at home mom and it is amazing the things you will do to save money!
My friend and I were talking a little while ago, about life before we had babies and about how we would go to the store and just put anything in our carts without worrying about the price! Now we go to the store and are just amazed!!! Just the other day I was talking to my husband about how we are getting ahead...and he reminded me that we are now on just his income and the 5hrs a week I do from home for work, and my hair money- And we are doing better now than before! Isnt that sad? Minus the extra income- we are still doing ok??? I am so grateful I am able to stay home with my son, and so grateful for this eye opening experience - reality! I am now a coupon clippping, blog reading, deal finding queen! I hope to use this blog to be a reminder to me to always be aware of what I am spending and to help educate others!! Make sure to leave comments and let me know of any deals you find that are amazing!!!
