Couponing

TLC.

Who doesn't love TLC.

Extreme Couponing has been making people realize how much money they can potentially save.

I wouldn't call myself an Extreme Couponer? [if that's even a word] by any means. I clip - I've used probably... 20 total. [grocery coupons.. not AE 20% off coupons..for example]

But. Thank you to this show - I've started researching.

What better way to learn about the possibilities than other bloggers??

So.  I found this blog - that was really quite educational.

She explains what.how.when.where - the details!

she also lists links for printable coupons.

I've used printable ones before. usually from Swagbucks - Swagbucks. 'sigh' that's a whole 'nother blogpost on it's own.

I've also used P&G (Proctor & Gamble) coupons that come in my local newspaper. Like I said - I've probably only used 20 total but when I did - I sure felt great. My very first time I saved $3.50! That doesn't sound like a lot - but it sure does add up.

& I'm a gambler. so that's 3 plays for the MegaMillions :) just by clipping coupons.

Now for me - what I've learned - an important thing to remember when using coupons is ...

You don't have to buy something just because you have a coupon for it!!

I would see... 'hey! I have a coupon for $5.00 off a swiffer wet jet starter pack!!' and my first instinct is to buy it - because duh - I'm saving $5.00!! but.. do I really need that? no. not really. no.

Happy Couponing!
