Filed under: Coupon Crazy
After getting the most coupon-stuffed newspaper I have ever received, then reading about all of the drugstore freebies for the week, I nearly fainted. I am not exaggerating when I say that my heart was racing. My feet were doing a strange gotta-pee-type-dance as I stood at my computer (too excited to sit) and typed all of the deal scenarios into my weekly spreadsheet. I could barely contain my excitement… so my car drove me straight to Rite Aid. I just couldn’t wait. My heart couldn’t have handled it.
Let me break this down for you.
I got:
13 popcorn balls (for the trick-or-treaters!)
6 king size candy bars (for the really good costumes…or me)
3 AirWick motion sensor air fresheners (valued at $10 a piece)
10 large bottles of Johnson & Johnson baby soap products (valued at $5.50 a piece)
My total? An $8 profit!
And that’s not the only exciting news.
Since I have become so involved with — and excited about — couponing, a few friends have asked how they, too, can achieve such savings bliss. So, I have decided to offer a couponing workshop. Yep, I’m going on tour.
Date TBD — likely a Saturday coming soon. 9:30-11:30 am. Location TBA.
I love love love teaching this stuff — it has changed my financial life forever, and I love watching it change the lives of others. I feel strongly that this coupon craziness is God’s way of providing for my family. Now, it’s my turn to spread the savings love! So, let me know if you’re interested in changing your life signing up!

Comment by peanutandpoppy September 17, 2009 @ 11:22 amI heard about your impressive couponing from Audrey–has your workshop already happened, or is there still time to get on board? I’d love to get started, but it can be intimidating and overwhelming!
