If you’re like me, you’ve heard it all before:

Coupons don’t work…
Coupons take too much time…

Although I have always been good at saving money, I thought coupons were a time-waster. That was a few years ago. Now, I know that coupons do work; in fact, they get me hundreds of dollars in free items every month!

These days, I am almost never pay for toiletries, makeup, some medicines, household items, non-perishables and other essentials sold at your favorite drugstores and supermarkets…And there are thousands of individuals like me everywhere.

This could be you…

Do you want to learn this not-so-secret trick to getting hundreds of dollars in free items every month? I learned from the best, and now I want to teach you.

It’s free! The next class starts Monday June 26.

The Introduction:

What is the purpose of the 10-step Couponing Course?

The premise of a coupon is simple. You get a coupon, you use it to save money. However, many people believe you can’t really save much money with coupons. These naysayers, you see, simply don’t know how to use them correctly. It’s time that you start reaping the rewards that thousands of thousands of Americans are enjoying – free toiletries and household items.

What you need if you want to participate:

1. You need to want to do this.

To me, this is fun. It’s also one of the best kept secrets about saving tons of money every month to free up your budget for fresh food items and other things on your list. I love getting tons of makeup, toiletries, face washes, razors, toilet paper, candy, non-perishable food and regular household products free. Now that I hardly ever pay for anything at CVS or Walgreens, it’s almost painful to watch all those people shelling out 20 bucks for shampoo. But heck, this whole couponing thing might sound like the most boring thing on the planet. If that’s you – don’t do it!

2. You need these items:

- A box or drawer you will devote to this project

- A marker or pen

- A notebook

- Envelopes

- A calculator

- A Sunday newspaper every Sunday

3. You need to commit to doing these 2 things every week if you want to see success:

- Come to this blog at least once a week to read what your directions are for what you need to do this week to get your free items.

- Go to Walgreens or CVS (or both, if you get excited by all the free stuff you are getting) that week following the directions.

    I’m a long time coupon clipper & do save quite a bit. BUT I have not mastered the Walgreens’/CVS thing & can’t wait to do so. I feel like a dummy but I just haven’t got it right yet. I’m hoping that this course will make me a master at it! Thanks!

    My Big Sister (im 27) is a long time Walgreens and CVS’er. I told her about this course and she thought it was a great idea! some how she hasn’t bought anything like soap shampoo body wash and TONS of other houshold items in over 2 years. she has so much she has a whole closet devoted to the purchases. if we run out of something and its in between pay day, late at night or anytime we cant get to the store, i call big sis. she has it. i bet if yall got toether you guys could teach us some amazing things. most of the time she hasnt paid for but 1/8th of the bill. i dont know how she did it~

    I just started clipping coupons a couple of months ago. The Sunday paper doesn’t deliver to my address and if you buy a paper in the store or out of a box in my area you’re wasting your money if you’re buying it just for coupons and advertisements. I was finally about to find someone to let me use their address so I can get my coupons. Yay, just signed up for your monday classes. I’m looking forward to being able to save even more than I already am with the coupons I’m using. :-)
