Dear Kelly and Kasey,
My sister, niece and myself attended your class this weekend. I've been couponing for quite some time and didn't really know if I would learn anything new at your workshops. To say the least.....I did! You both really know your stuff! I tried out all that I learned, by using the coupons that I had in my "stash". the store ads and your website! I was able to save a total of 53% on my one-day shopping spree! I saved more in some places, less in others, depending on my coupons and the store deals. My next goal is set at 70% Total Savings!
Thank you both for your ministry. I know that this will be a "life-saver" for so many people in these tough economic times.
Peace & Love to you both-
M. B.

I am curious about how the couponer was able to buy 3 glade candles at CVS. I was thinking that you could only buy one per card. My question is "Is there a hidden deal where you can actually buy more than 1, or does she have more than one card?" I really love candles and was thrilled to know that I could get one free this week.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the savings tips.
Great question!
ReplyDeleteAbout two or three weeks ago in the Sunday Inserts, there was a coupon for a FREE 2 oz Glade Candle. So depending on how many coupons you have you can get as many FREE as you want, at any store that honors coupons and stocks that particular candle.
I got a couple myself - so thankful for coupons that just give me a FREE product with no thinking or stratedgy involved:)
Many Blessings,
