Couponing 101

-First of all………………………………………………..have a goal!
If you just get every good deal, you will end up spending more than you normally do getting stuff you normally would not. My goal is to spend no more than $25 a month at CVS/Walgreens. I also always plan to save more than I spend at the grocery. My budget is $400 a month. I do this very easily and have things stored up and this is about half of what we spent before.

-Second……………………………………………………every store has different rules about couponing.
To be successful, you have to know the rules of the store you are shopping at!

-Third……………………………………………………….This does take a lot of time and effort to do well. Be prepared!!

-Forth………………………………………………………….I get 5 Sunday newspapers a week for the coupons. The going thought is that you should get as many as you have people in your family. That seems to work well for us. I also print a lot of internet coupons from different sights.

These are just the basics!!

Its all over town. You order online and you pick your food up at different locations. It seems to be a good deal. I have not tried it yet,,,,,,but I think I might.
