EVERYBODY IS WELCOME

This is for us to share information on coupons, great deals, bargains and frugal living. Our focus is mainly on stores in Union County in Western Kentucky and surrounding areas from Marion, IL, to Henderson and Madisonville, KY and to Evansville, IN. Please leave comments and post deals. We will do things weekly starting on Sunday when the newspapers and coupon inserts come out. If you find a great deal let us know. And remember this is a Christian place so please no curse words and be kind and thoughtful of others always. We love Jesus here.

How I Coupon

When I collect my coupons I save them till I see a really great sale on that item. I search the ads each Sunday when they come out in the newspaper (I buy 3 papers each week for the coupons). If I see a really good deal I may buy 1 or 5 or 10 of that one item. I stockpile, which means when I can get something really cheap and have enough coupons for it I buy enough for up to a year's worth. I may not buy it all in one week, it may take awhile to accumulate a years worth of something but the goal it not to have to run to the store and pay full price for it. If I can go to the closet and get what I need and only paid half price for it I saved big. I shop anywhere I can get a good deal. I also use other store ads at WalMart instead of running around everywhere. But some of my best deals are at the drugstores, Walgreens, CVS, and Rite Aid. They offer alot of good sales such as buy 1 get 1 for half, or buy 1 get 1 free. Add a coupon to that sale and Yippee. The websites I use the most for info such as, We Use Coupons are listed in this blog and some offer tutorials. I also sometimes buy coupons from an online coupon clipping service. People ask how much do I spend, and I have a budget just like anybody, I just pick and choose what to buy each week by what is the best deal, and what I have to have that week, and I only spend what I can and quit. I don't stress over it. I try to shop with the sale cycles too. When meat is on sale I stock up on that one cut of meat. I buy bigger packages and divide them and I plan our meals by what is on sale that week and by what I have in my pantry. In other words I try to be frugal in all I do. We live on less and make the money go further. If I am saving money it's a good day. NEVER PAY FULL PRICE is my motto.
