extreme couponing

{via}

One of my friends talked me into going to a couponing workshop at the university last night. 

I am glad she did because I actually learned a lot of ways to save money!

And who doesn't want to save money?!

Here is my bullet point version of the session.

• Learn sales cycles and stock up
• The bigger the city the better the coupons in the Sunday paper
• Focus on BOGO coupons/sales
• Use highest value coupons first
• Have an organization system
• Many grocery stores will double your coupons
• You can use both a manufacturer's coupon & store coupon together
• Great sites for printable coupons:
• smartsource.com; redplum.com; coupons.com

This list does not even scratch the surface.
I am still processing the majority of the info.
There was a TON of information packed into 2.5 hours.

I swear some of it sounded like Jedi mind tricks!

It is actually possible to walk into a store, purchase what you need, and not actually pay anything AT ALL!

Amazing!

Everybody should definitely check out the Southern Savers website here.
