It's a joke. I LOVE going to Target and the grocery stores when in the US and buying stuff with coupons. I always want to shout out how lucky everybody is to be able to save money that way. I did a lot of couponing when I was living in the US. Like you said, though, I don't stockpile. The key, for me, was to know what I would use and not waste money on stuff I wouldn't use just because it was cheap.Siobhánhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14664728276490470180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5946103414362414928.post-89491997327368202962011-06-04T03:36:29.293-04:002011-06-04T03:36:29.293-04:00just beautiful

We don't eat a whole lot of processed foods so I'm not sure I could make it work for me though, aside from cleaning products. Makes me wonder why the local food banks don't hire one of those gals to do that for THEM as a job though. Just think of the stuff they could get to help their patrons.Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06230362349362748862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5946103414362414928.post-30373346455958688202011-05-31T11:40:22.890-04:002011-05-31T11:40:22.890-04:00Hey J!

As for couponing, I use some here and there, but I can't see getting a bunch of stuff for just the 2 of us, just because it's a great deal, I don't have the room to store all of that.

While I miss your knitting posts, it's fun to see and follow a new direction. Mine, in addition to knitting, has gone to a spinning side. While we have been working on re-doing the office at home, I had to bring out my sewing machine to work on curtains and the sewing bug has hit me again as well. Any hobby with needles is a good thing!

Isn&...Jackie - you have begun on AotH wonderfully! Isn't it funny how it looks kind of daunting as a whole project, but it really goes kinda fast? About the couponing - I've been couponing for years, even before it became fashionable. And, while I DO have a pantry, I also keep in mind that this stuff, especially food - has a shelf-life. And I don't really need to put my money into 45 deodorants that will last me til I die. Some do. The funny thing is that last Sunday, my husband went out late in the day to get me my Sunday Post. We figure the coupons will pay the $2.50 for the paper. There were no papers to be found in our entire area. One 7-11 clerk told him that they'd sold out at 9AM. I am going to get a Sunday only subscription now. So, I guess Extreme Couponing (while it doesn't make total sense) has affected peopleKatherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00443276914204027757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5946103414362414928.post-37410351943183632102011-05-30T08:37:21.006-04:002011-05-30T08:37:21.006-04:00You are fast with that stitching...love it!
