Extreme couponing!
So .... I've slipped further into housewife oblivion ... I've entered the world of couponing! Thanks to the show "Extreme Couponing" my husband has encouraged me to try to tackle on this new "hobby". I've never really clipped coupons before, but after watching just a few episodes of that show, I must say the amount of money they are able to save is quite intriguing! I really want to help keep us in budget, so I figured I might as well give it a try. I'm not sure if we'll end up using the coupons I clip since we are almost always at Costco and not at a regular grocery store, but I thought I'd try it out. To kick start my extreme couponing adventure, I found a coupon online for a one year Sunday-only subscription to the LA Times for only $9.88 (as opposed to $52/year)!!! To make it more "extreme" I got three copies so that's 3x more coupons =) !!!! The hubby was pretty proud of my find as well! We'll see where this takes me .... I know it will be a bit time consuming to clip all those coupons (x3 no less), but if it is able to help us save more money, then so be it! Now that I'm couponing, I totally feel more housewife-ish ... which isn't such a bad thing, is it? =)
