Saving Money in 2009

One thing I would like to get back on track with and better at in 2009 is couponing! I was doing good for awhile about 8 months ago, playing The Grocery Game, but then summer came, kids were home and we were at the pool all summer so my couponing kinda went out the window! I have been reading other blogs, watching vlogs and talking to some people I know who do a great job at couponing. I will be sharing my findings, tips and savings with all of you throughout the year.

The one thing I always wondered about is how some people get so many of the same coupon. I recently found out from a friend of a friend, that she goes to the convenience stores by her and has arranged for them to save their leftover Sunday papers for her each Monday. I would have never thought of doing this! I took her advice and went to the mini mart down the street from me a few weeks ago and JACKPOT, the owner said he would be happy to give the leftover papers to me on Mondays! Now that I have the coupons, my next task is to create a coupon binder. I am going to Walmart tomorrow to see if I can find a binder and when I put it together I will show it to you.

If anyone has any tips or suggestions, please leave them in my comments I would love to hear from you! I need all the help I can get. LoL
