I’ve been trying…I really have. For years. I clip. I file. I had tiny piles of coupons. And it never fails…am at checkout and then I forget. And I had $3 to save one day $5 another or even $1 and it gets tossed in the garbage because I can’t remember to give it to the checkout girl!
Well there’s this thrifty nifty mom that has been doing this for 10 years and she’s made a business out of it: www.couponmom.com. I got to read about her this morning in my local paper and also get frustrated hearing how they spend about $80 something a week and how she even gets free shampoo at CVS…how!?! Why do free things happen to other people and never me?
I am going to glance at her website tonight. I read it’s free to join and you get to see deals all over the country and find a bargain in a grocery store near you…because God knows, I don’t believe there are any food bargains any more. Tell me if you find any deals. I’m on my way to browse her site now and will get back w/the tips I find for here:)
Couponmom has a great feature when looking for deals at your specific store… you pick your store and it will list most of your stores deals and unadvertised deals that you can match up with coupons… I don’t visit very often but I do like to check out the unadvertised deals to see if there is anything I missed…
hi-I’m trying really hard to budget and save. I did see our supermarket there on their site when I looked a little at it and I love how it was categorized with all the specials and need to look at it some more:0)
Do you have a site too that deals with specials?
Thanks for writing!:)
