As frugal-minded shoppers, we are always on the hunt to find the best prices without too much work. I know a lot of you have found that Aldi has low prices and good deals on certain items.  Since they don’t carry name brands or accept any coupons, I thought it might be a good idea […]

      At the beginning of last year, I started a series with 9 other bloggers on frugal living. Our goal was to show quick simple ways to make a big difference for very little cost. It’s like a cliff notes version of some of the key areas in our lives.  I’m excited to announce that we […]

            You may not know this, but I’ve started getting emails from some of your husbands asking what to give a couponer for Christmas.  Yep, you are married to awesome men that are seeking to find something that you would enjoy! Well here’s a list of the top books and things that I think most couponers […]

              One of the biggest challenges to couponing can be storage.  We need to buy enough of a sale item to last the next 6 weeks, but that seems daunting when you have a small cabinet or a little fridge/freezer.   For the next few weeks we are going to talk about the value of freezer space.  […]
