Giving Credit Where Credit is Due

Since starting to coupon I have gotten a lot of information from many different places.  I figured that I better give a little credit to the people who have helped me figure this stuff out!

1st.  Youtube, search IamTHATlady.  She did a series of 5 coupon 101 classes that I watched in the hospital because I was bored, and my husband insisted I learn to coupon.

2nd.  Baby Center Community, search the groups for Coupon Newbies.  The ladies that run that board and all the members of it (thousands) have helped me with so many questions!!  They still help me :)

3rd.  Google.  LOL you can google anything

4th but more important than all the above.  I wouldn't have been encouraged to start teaching a class for others to learn to coupon if I didn't have the encouragement from my best friend!  She was the one that really pushed me, without her I'd still be boring my husband and my mom with all my informatin LOL. 

Of course there are other people that I appreciate (I love talking savings with my mom) and my husband is amazing (he goes along with all the crazy ideas). 

I really am excited to start teaching classes (scheduled my first one for august 8th, can't wait) and I'm hoping this blog helps people too!  Feel free to post comments, questions and I'll make sure I do my best to answer them all!

Sell Yourself

So, went to wal-mart during my lunch today, (needed to get diapers and unfortunatly Wal-Mart always gets my business when it comes to buying diapers in bulk-did have 2 coupons though so it's good).  Anyway, I love this time of year when all the school supplies are out and since I need supplies to start my coupon class I shopped :)

Got to the check out line and was chatting with the cashier, I told her I do a coupon class (ok fibbed a little since I'm JUST now starting to teach them) and she was interested!  So, gave her my name and number and the address for this blog...it makes me super excited to think about teaching people how to save money! 

On a savings note, a lady I know told me today that Toys R Us has diapers on sale for 5.00!!!  I googled it and sure enough, however the sale ends today.  If you were able to cash in on that deal good for you!
