Big Time Saving

A couple of months ago a friend of mine intruduced me to this thing called "coupon shopping". Like most poeple I never thought about using coupons in the past, and on the rare instance that I had used my one or two coupons during my grocery trips I never noticed a big enough discount to make the whole coupon clipping worth while. After getting more information and hearing just how much she was saving each week, I had to try it. I did- This past week for example I went to Albertsons- I purchased $302 worth of groceries and walked away paying only........$117 with TAX. Wow. I have only started using coupons since June 1, 2009 and I even though I still make mistakes, I am saving a ton of money.

Lucky for you folks my amazing friend Ali has been bombarded enough with questions from people wanting to learn more, that she started her own blog to help others get started. Check it out--> start.
