So I have decided to become a "Couponer" to see if i can save money and I think it has become a new obsession!  I am going to turn this blog into a way to save by posting some of my favorite deals as well as my shopping list each week so you can see what I am buying so maybe you can save as well! 

This week has some great deals including better than free (which means they actually paid me to take them out of the store) mayonnaise, free dog treats and pasta sauce, and super cheap napkins, hot dogs, soda, and candy!

You can find my entire Publix list with coupon breakdown here:

Publix Shopping List for 6/27/13 - 7/3/13

Keep in mind the following tricks for using coupons:

• There are 6 ways to get coupons:

1. News Paper (most popular)
2. Printed off the internet
1. Coupons.com
2. Target
3. Digital Coupons-Publix Digital Coupons
4. In Store flyers/Store specific
5. Peelies (on an item in the store) 
6. Blinkies (the little box in the grocery store aisle that gives out a coupon when you walk by)

• You should always get papers in sets of 2 because you can use 2 coupons on a BOGO Sale (buy one get one).
• Publix allows you to use 1 manufacturer coupon and one store coupon per item (even the free item on a BOGO)
• Publix will also allow other stores coupons (check with your local store to see who they accept)
• Sign up for Ibotta and download the app for your phone. This app has certain items that they offer a coupon for where the money you earn for buying the item will be sent to your PayPal account. Signup and Download Ibotta Here. You will get a $10 signup bonus when you use this link!\
• Organize your coupons! I don't clip out every coupon- this was very time consuming. Instead I use a method from one of my favorite coupon queens at Couponers United. This litterally saved my sanity! How to organize your coupons!

If you have any questions on getting started let me know. I think everyone deserves to save money!!
