"but I don't have any coupons!"

Well then, it's time to get some!! You have to start somewhere and you can create a "stash" much faster than you think. You'll be surprised how much you have within one month. After two months, you'll be saying "I've got to find a different way to organize these - there's just too many!"

*This week's paper had FOUR awesome coupon inserts inside. Go pick one up. It's not too late.
Just a side note, next week's paper will not have any, so save your money - unless you get the paper to actually read the news. I hear some people do that. Weird, huh? ;)

*Of course there are a lot of coupons on the internet you can print right from your computer - coupons.com, smartsource, manufacturer sites, the list goes on and on. I try to restrain myself from printing too many. After you get started, you'll be able to tell which ones you should print and which ones you can pass. It all kind of depends on the product, the value, etc. You will also learn which items are commonly found on sale at stores to be able to combine them with other deals for those awesome cheap, free or for profit items.

So if you're just getting started - here's your homework - go get yesterday's paper - cut EVERY coupon out. I don't care if you don't use that brand of vitamins. Cut it out. Remember the $8 I got paid for "buying" the cold sore medicine? Yeah. Cut 'em all out! ;)

This is a GREAT week for Walgreens - I had a really fun trip yesterday - I'll post that tonight. And I'm sooooooo excited about the new Target right by my house! There are lots of hidden deals there too when you combine store coupons with manufacturer coupons. Okay. Enough rambling. Now, go get your paper!
