                A while ago I started explaining coupon lingo, and hoped to finish in a more timely manner… this week though we are going to knock out all the rest! Once you learn the lingo of any culture, life gets easier to understand.  You start to talk like a native, and outsiders will listen to you […]

                  Couponing is fun and all, but many times the things that you really need you never have a coupon for.  The biggest of those items can be meat and produce.  When you watch “lovely” TV shows about couponing you’ll notice they never buy meat, it brings down your total savings and that’s just not fun…  […]
