Being able to share my experience to help others save their families money really is so rewarding. I really do love this and get excited at the possibilities of how much it could grow! Thank you for sharing and glad to have you as a reader! :) If you aren't already, be sure to become a facebook follower (link in my sidebar) so you never miss a deal! :)Ali Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16476716972708583049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659797319222366873.post-34815299066869755542010-01-30T15:58:44.088-07:002010-01-30T15:58:44.088-07:00You know, for my family, we do this because my hus...You know, for my family, we do this because my husband and sons eat SOOOOO much. Before I started couponing, we had the same grocery budget we have now (I'm thinking of reducing it now because we're getting so completely stockpiled, which is great) but they were always complaining that we didn't have enough food and at the end of the week, our shelves and freezer were BARE. We would be running out of food before I could get back into town. Now we never do, and it's all name-brand stuff, too. They eat as much as their metabolisms seem to require, and I pat myself on the back for doing it while keeping us in budget. Heck, now we even have soda and beer and stuff which we usually couldn't afford before. Plus, we have about a year's worth of our main toiletries stocked up, too, s that in weeks when our budget has to be smaller than usual, I don't have to think, "but if I spend $4 on lotion, I won't be able to get meat!" That used to happen all the time. <br /><br />Couponing has really changed our life in a positive way. And it's all thanks to blogs like this one. I actually just came here for the first time today, via Fabulessly Frugal, but I'm bookmarking this. I love this price check series.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14330485700488718138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659797319222366873.post-65211743350656464232010-01-18T22:33:52.499-07:002010-01-18T22:33:52.499-07:00I love it Ali!

Some of my deals only require printable coupons that you don't even need a newspaper for. Some of them only require STORE coupons (which you can get AT the store) and some don't require coupons at all, they're just good buys! Start small. Do a little bit and I bet you will see how addicting it can be once you really start to see your "little" savings adding up!Ali Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16476716972708583049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659797319222366873.post-77902118947428296292010-01-18T14:09:20.205-07:002010-01-18T14:09:20.205-07:00ok so i've decided i want to hire you as my pe...ok so i've decided i want to hire you as my personal shopper :) every time i try to start looking at coupons i let something else distract me ... ugh i want your deals!!!! i always read your blogs and think o i'll do that and o i'll do that too and then i forget ... one day i guess ...3 boys in 3 yearshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16371428341726901167noreply@blogger.com
