Going Nuts? I can help you understand coupon terms and abbreviations

Earlier, we talked about sales cycles and stocking up for 6 weeks worth. While this works great for most items, there are some items that do not follow this traditional cycle.  You really already know most of these items, but just so you don’t come back and yell at me that your peeps are never […]

    We have covered only buying what is on sale.  Once we spot the great sale, the other side of equation is that we need to buy enough of that sale item to last until we see the sale again. This is where most people start envisioning bomb shelters filled with food and never parking the […]

      We have went over how to use the Buy Price List and weekly Ads on Southern Savers. I know that some of you really like holding and looking at a paper grocery ad.  If you that person, here are the best ways to filter out the items that are actually deals. Only Look At The […]

        When I am around town I always seem to run into people that come up and say hi, and then guiltily confess that they just can’t figure out the coupon thing.   I’ve had others attend numerous workshops and yet come away feeling incredibly overwhelmed.  So for the next few days we are going to break […]

          I’ve been at this coupon thing for almost 7 years now.  However, I confess that in all that time I still haven’t figured out the best way to organize things.  When we moved a little while ago it meant tackling the beast head on.  Sadly in packing things up I found two trash bags full […]

            That’s a trick question…  the answer is FREE!  Seriously, there is no need to ever pay “real” money for toothpaste.  I did a news interview this week, and the host was amazed at the idea of free toothpaste.  Toothpaste is truly a drugstore purchase if your goal is to get it for free.  We’ll get […]

              Whether you are a new couponer or a long time expert it can be easy to get burnt out on using coupons. It can be a lot of fun to get all of the best deals, but it also takes a lot of time and work. Your time is valuable and you can easily get […]

                I’m thrilled to announce that the Ibotta grocery savings app is now available for ANDROID!  I feel like shouting it from the mountain tops.  There are so many amazing deals with this, and I’ve felt bad for the past few weeks while Android users missed out. I did a detailed review last week that will […]

                  I’m excited to share that we are finally getting local workshops going again!!  Being pregnant and having a baby in 2012 kinda slowed things down, but we are ready to hit the road for 2013! There are two classes on the schedule for January so far in Charlotte NC and Orangeburg SC. I’ll keep updating […]
