My Mission

As some of you may already know, I began couponing this summer. Although there were a lot of reasons for this initially, including my lack of a summer job and preparing for college by stocking up with supplies, I soon realized it is silly to NOT coupon. Millions of dollars of coupons are put into circulation each year and yet only a small fraction of these are ever used. If you simply change a few habits and put a little more planning into your shopping routine, you could be saving tons of money a year.

It is a common misconception that couponers buy things just to use a coupon and end up spending more than if they had never tried to use a coupon. It is true that some beginners fall into this hole, but by planning your coupon endeavors, sticking to your plan, and realizing the difference of needs and wants, you will be getting wonderful deals every week.

My mission in this blog is to help enlighten those who have yet find the joy of couponing. There is a special thrill you get when a store literally has to PAY you to take products out of their store. Before too long, you will be impressing your friends and family with your mad savings and impressing thriftiness.
