Basics of Couponing - Part 7

Summary

Are you excited yet about the money saving possibilities of using coupons?  I hope so!  I am telling you, this process works!  I am living proof of that.

As a stay-at-home-mom, our money is very tight!  Our grocery budget was the area in our budget that desperately needed help, but I didn't feel like we could do much better than what we were doing.  Boy was I wrong!  When I learned how to effectively use coupons, my husband and I decided to go for it!  We jumped in and did every step I have shared with you and have dramatically cut our budget.

Here is a quick summary of the 3 main steps to making coupons work for you....

1. Matching coupons with store sales
   •  Wait for the time when the item is at its cheapest before you use the coupon to buy it.
2. Know the policies of your local stores
   • Does your store offer store coupons that you can stack with manufacturer coupons?
   • Do they double coupons?
3. Stockpile...stockpile...stockpile
   • Stock up enough product to last you until the next sale,

Let me say, too, once you start doing this and then see all the great deals that are out there.....you will be hooked!  It is so much fun to be able to go shopping and go home feeling great about the money you spent, instead of frustrated.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have about this.  Seriously, I would love you help you out however I can.
