        For all my fellow homeschoolers I’m excited to bring you a special discount to an awesome event!  Next March 15th-17th there is an awesome Homeschool Convention that you really want to make called Teach Them Diligently.  The convention is going to be at the Spartanburg Expo Center in Spartanburg SC.

        They are bringing together some of big names like Dr. Voddie Baucham, Ken Ham, Doug Phillips and more (I’m speaking too if that helps convince you), to lead keynotes and workshops on practically every topic under the sun.   With a large vendor hall to shop, great speakers, informative workshops, and great children and teen programs, this will be one of the best homeschool conventions in the nation.

        Wanna go?

        Right now, through September 19th you can get a family ticket (for every member of your family) for $25 when you use code Savers during registration.  This will save you an additional $5 off the Early Bird price.

        I’m really really excited about this, and even more excited that I get to offer you a discount!

          Update: Their servers are having trouble keeping up with everyone who wants coupons! Try back later today or tomorrow and hopefully it’ll be working.

            Atlanta area readers:

            Get a great deal on a subscription to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution today on Groupon.

            For $39 you can get a 6 month subscription to the Sunday and Thursday paper or for $50 get Thursday thru Sunday papers every week!

            In terms of couponing you really only need the Sunday/Thursday option.  This will get you all your insert coupons on Sunday and your Publix penny item coupon on Thursday.  As for savings, the Sunday paper is $2 normally so getting 26 weeks of the paper for $39 is already a savings of $13 plus you are getting a free Thursday paper now.

            The Groupon is only good for the next two days. You have until November 17th to activate your subscription.  Limit 1 per household.

              To make the most out of couponing, make sure you know all about the grocery store sale cycles.

              Over the next few weeks we are going to have our own Extreme Couponing series on Southern Savers. I’ve done many posts and videos over the years, but we are going to start over with short little 3 minutes or less videos and cover the basics, questions, tips and tricks. My hope is that we can break things into very easy to understand segments and help folks actually learn how to save money (not just buy all the floss in a grocery store and “save” a ton on one random trip).

              To get us started, the most important thing to learn is that groceries run on a sale cycle…
