Coupon Using Mom

New posts coming soon...

2009-12-08T21:54:00.000-08:00

Sorry for the leave of abscence here lately... I got wrapped up in other things... Holiday shopping, working, and watching my sweet 'lil 18 month old girl who seems to be starting into the terrible two's stage already. You gotta love the little fits they throw... I also had kind of slacked off on posting because I wasn't getting any traffic although I seem to be now. Please leave me a comment if any past postings seem like they'd be useful to you. I always have trouble limiting my matchups to the best few things. I try to matchup any possible sale with any Q that could be used because it may be a 'need' item if someone is out of it. Is that helpful or should I just post cheapest items w/coupon? Any tips would be appreciated.

I've thought about doing this for a while...this blog. I've been inspired by others that got me started on couponing and trying ways to live more frugal. You'll have to bear with me for now while I try to get the hang of this blogging thing. I will be trying to post coupon matchups for Marsh and Owens in Northern Indiana every week.
