Couponing John


Couponing can be one of the best ways to save money. Combining coupons in the appropriate way can literally get things for free. My Best Friends mom is an "extreme" couponer. She gets hundreds of dollars of free things every week. It is insane how much money you can save at the grocery store just by collecting coupons. There is even a TV show on extreme couponing. It is on TLC. Now obviously you will not get free TV’s or other such expensive objects it is mostly like canned goods, and other food necessities. Some people even call it a sport. Friends and families compete against each other to see who can get the best deals on products. I find it a little ridiculous but in today’s economy anyway to save a buck is good I guess. The show was a relatively big hit among people. It had over two million views during its two seasons. I personally have never tried this, but if you’re in a serious need to save money it is a great idea. I know that just last week my friends mom got 4 gallons of milk, and a tub of yogurt free, which was relatively a bad week for her. I do not suggest losing any sleep if you are not too good at it at first. It is kind of an art to become good at. However like everything else practice makes perfect. If you keep at it you will not be let down. In the first few weeks you will begin to notice more money showing up in your pockets. You had to work really hard to get the money you have there is no reason to spend it on things you do not need. So go pick up a coupon book, and begin saving. Happy Couponing!
