Couponing is not for the faint of heart though. It can be confusing at first but like most worth while things, the more you do it, the better you get. From the help of couponing blogs out there and some digging on my own I have become a coupon queen. I hope to share with you every week how to go about couponing and hopefully answer questions and provide support and enthusiasm as you start your couponing journey!
Here is a little glimpse into a shopping trip I took yesterday:
