Nicole has been super busy sending me tips on lots of deals this week.
If anyone is interested, she has some free coupon classes coming up. One in Odgen at the Standard Examiner building, this Thursday at 7pm and one in Pleasant Grove Wednesday April 29th at 7pm. These classes will be very helpful to anyone wanting to learn how to coupon. She taught me everything I know =) Let me know if you are interested in either of these and I will get you more info.

Learn to be a coupon-er
Due to the overwhelming response to my new hobby I have decided to write more about it and teach you what I know. I am by no means an expert, but I have a wealth of information that has been shared with me that I'd be happy to pass along.
I have three main resources. The first is my step cousin Nicole. She is the one who introduced me to couponing. She teaches a class called coupons 101. I'm going to start with her outline.
1. The purpose of using coupons
a. To be able to save more money
b. Build Food Storage (so you never run out of anything)
c. Get out of Debt
d. Reduce weekly/monthly grocery budget and make the money you have go further
e. To have fun
2. Obtaining Coupons
Sunday Newspaper Inserts
Online Coupons
Blinkies
Tearpads
Catalinas
Peelies
Rebates
Store coupons vs. Manufacturer Coupons
3. Getting Organized
. . . choose what works best for you!
a. Binder Method (zip binder, baseball card holders or photo sheets)
b. Coupon Caddie or Coupon Box (box with dividers and categories)
c. Envelopes (with different categories
d. Filing Cabinet or Filing Box (with dates on top)
e. Flexible File (with categories or dates)
Be organized Before you go to the store!
4. Finding the Best Deals
Pinching Your Pennies: http://www.pinchingyourpennies.com/
- - click on Screaming Deals by state, click on your state
Things PYP does for you:
Gives you weekly lists of grocery, and other stores best deals, with and without coupons.
Threads and Fourms that I find most helpful:
1. Individual Grocery Stores (Albertsons, Smiths, Maceys)
2. Best Baby Deals
3. Free or Dirt cheap for the week of . . .
4. Best price on perishables for the week of . . .
5. Screaming Deals around the town (Target, Walmart, Kmart, Walgreens, Rite Aid, etc.)
6. Screaming Deals Online (online deals and codes to go along with them
Other Things PYP does:
a. They post other great deals that people find as they come up
b. You know what some of the upcoming sales are going to be and when they start.
This website works with a lot of the local grocery stores.
c. You can ask questions and they are nice to explain things.
Understanding Coupon info and lingo
French's mustard, any .35/1 (2-29-08) SS - 12/9
The date in parentheses is the expiration date.
The information at the end is where the coupon can be found, and the date it was issued:
SS=Smartsource RP=Red Plum/Valassis P&G=Proctor&Gamble K=Kraft
Is that enough info for you? Don't worry. I'm going to break it down. Feel free to ask any questions along the way.
Lets start with 2. Obtaining Coupons, since that has been the biggest question I've gotten so far.
I currently get 5 Sunday papers with coupons in them.
I get The Daily Herald's SavvyShopper Subscription Special
2 Sundays & 1 Thursday$10.36/month with EZ-Pay
3 Sundays & 1 Thursday$12.30/month with EZ-Pay
4 Sundays & 1 Thursday$14.24/month with EZ-Pay
5 Sundays & 1 Thursday$16.40/month with EZ-Pay
Their number is(801)375-5103
Every week I get between 1 & 5 booklets of coupons
They are
Smartsource (SS)
Redplum (RP)
Proctor&Gamble (PG)
Kraft(K)
This week I got three: SS, RP & P&G
I also use some of the other coupons mentioned above, but we'll go into those another day.
I'll let you digest what I've given you today.
Your homework is to decide how you want to start collecting your coupons. Weather that be subscribing to a newspaper, collecting coupons from friends and family that get the Sunday paper, etc.
For extra credit check out my other two resources http://www.pinchingyourpennies.com/ and http://theobsessiveshopper.net/.
Next time I'll go over getting organized.
Until then happy shopping =)
