My new title

I am now a Professional Coupon Shopper --

Someone posted on Couponmom that a Walgreen manager called her a Professional Coupon Shopper -- he defined us as one who matches up coupons to sales to really maximize their savings.

Too Funny!!!

The best way to save is to buy the items when they go on sale and you have a coupon. I get many of my its 1/2 off, or free -- why pay full price is my motto.

My hubby says "Do we really need 10 boxes of pizza rolls?" No not today but over the next few months yes. Esp. when they are .05 a box!!! So in 2 months if Joe says "Hey mom, buy some pizza rolls." I can go to the freezer and pull out a .05 box instead of running to the store and paying full price for them -- SAVINGS!!!!

You have to learn to stockpile -- buy items when they are cheap/free/profit and put them away. That means you gotta have storage. I couldn't of done this at our old house -- We didn't have room!

At Publix and Kroger you can stack coupons -- which means you can use a manufacturers coupon (out of the paper, or printed offline) and a store coupon (one that Publix or Kroger gives out) Publix has in the front of their stores near the buggies a rack that has store coupons in a little magazine. It's usually green. It last a whole month. I pick up 10 or more if they have good coupons in there. Kroger usually has those coupon boxes on the isle near a product, that's a store coupon at Kroger.

At Publix this week I bought makeup because I had manufacturers and store coupons -- I paid anywhere from .99 for mascara to making 1.21 profit on some things.

I also only buy meat when it's $1.99 a lb. Watch the sales ads -- I buy 10 lbs at a time, split it into serving sizes and freeze it!

If you have anymore questions holler --
