Reviewing

Lately I haven't had the time to take pictures of my deals or upload ones that I have taken. I looked back at my smartshopping blog today and realized it was almost all about coupons I've gotten in the mail! So really I need to get to work.

A couple weeks ago I went to a coupon class that presented grocerysmarts. This free system I've been using for awhile and just stumbled upon is actually turning into quite an entrepreneurship for the women that do it. I knew most of the tips and tricks but wanted to go so I cold order additional Sunday newspapers. If you get the paper already, adding each additional Sunday paper is just $0.75 per week or $19.50 per 6 month subscription. So I added 4 more Sunday papers so that I could have one per person in my family. Plus this gave me the opportunity to earn a freebie $20 gift card to Smiths - which really I believe just paid for my 5th subscription!

I've now started receiving the 5 papers per Sunday and am excited to start saving BIG BIG! It really does help to have multiples on hand when an item you want goes on sale and you want to stock up.
