  1. Hi! I would love to win this magazine subscription. I found your blog through your interview with Birmingham Baragain Mom on Al.com. It's exciting to see an extreme couponer from my area. I read all of the "famous" blogs and apply thier techniques to my shopping. But now, there is actually someone close to home! I live in Jemison Alabama and I too will only be found in Publix, (or target). I hear Calera will be getting one sometime in 2010. I can't wait. Anyway, congratulations on the new blog and i look very forward to following along with you.

  3. I'm so excited about this new blog! The best way we have been able to save money these past few months is by not going out to eat. We have only been going out to eat for special occasions like birthdays. I have heard alot about this magazine and would LOVE to win it!

  8. Commenting, will follow the blog, post a button on my blog, and I have a money saving tip. I try to buy ahead when something is on sale, I have a coupon and there is a BOGO (like at Publix.)

    What stores do double coupons? Anyone know?

  11. here's my money saving tip-when you find an item on sale for its lowest price point-buy as many as you have coupons for. this will ensure that you have enough of the item to last until the new coupon comes out and the item goes on sale again!

  13. I'm following your blog now, I blogged about you and I grabbed your button :)

    My money saving tip: I've started trying not to buy anything unless it's on sale & I have a coupon...

  14. I have put your button on my blog and would love to win the subscription. ... I guess my best money saving tip would be hitting the 90% off clearance sales at Target, thrift shopping for clothes, toys and basically most of things that decorate my home, coupons and buying store brands. Also when you get one of the buy one get one free items at Publix, it's only half price, you don't have to get two items like you do at Food World or Winn Dixie! Gotta love Publix... Wal-mart is a lot cheaper though on most of their items, but they don't double coupons and their fresh fruits and veggies aren't as good.

  21. I love your new blog and am very excited about reading it everyday! I have already grabbed your button and blogged about you. My email address is katiebug_1023@yahoo.com. I have several money saving tips. The first being cutting coupons and buying when things are on sale. I make a menu and (try my best to) stick to it. Also I check out movies from the library. Most have newer movies and you can keep them checked out for a week (especially great with the kids movies). I also shop a lot of consignment sales and stores.
