Almost every Monday we get the Sunday paper for a discounted price of $1.00. Since we don’t ever read the paper we don’t see the need to pay the full price of $1.75 on Sunday. I know, big deal, $.75, but it makes us feel better. We only get the paper for the coupons, we read the news on line.

I started clipping and using coupons when I got layed off of work and was looking for anyway to save money. It really works. There are some weeks that I save 20 to 30 percent off our grocery bill, you add that up and it can really make a big difference. I’ve gotten to the point that if I don’t have a coupon or it’s not on sale I hate to buy it. It goes further than the grocery store too, they can be used at restaurants, Wal Mart, Target, etc.

Hannah even likes to clip coupons with me, I hope it’s something she’ll learn at a much younger age than what I did. There’s no telling how much money I wasted over the years by not taking the time to use coupons. Happy Shopping!
