About 3yrs ago, I and my wife were discussing our finances and how difficult it has become keeping up with bills while trying to save. As we discussed our financial situations, I was browsing the sunday paper and came across a coupon booklet, humorously and sarcastically I said : “honey I guess we are going to have to start couponing” while holding up the booklet so she can see. She responded with: “ Great Idea! Lets do it.” She started researching, went into full gear and took action. Up to this day we do not lack any household, beauty, personal, health, cleaning products or food thanks to her clever utilization of coupons. We have enough for the next 3yrs even if we stop now, But we are not going to stop now. We have saved an average $2000 a year, more or less. We no longer have to worry about shampoo, conditioner, detergent, fabric softener, lotions, razors, shaving cream, toilet paper, towels, etc.... It has met our expectation beyond what we ever could have imagine.
Just yesterday, she went out and came home with $90 worth of product, total spent : $14
