Let's save some money.

In January my New Years Resolution was to find as many ways as possible to save money for my growing family. At first Chris laughed as I told him that I was going to start using coupons saying that I would never use them but I was determined to make this work. I started researching coupons and sites that would help me learn how to become a frugal coupon clipper. We began to clip coupons, print coupons and even had my mother-in-law send us her unused coupons so we could get started saving money. We soon discovered that we had so many coupons that we needed to find a system for managing them. We looked at several methods and have tried several methods from grouping by types and using envelopes, using an expandable folder, using zipper plastic bags for each type and have finally decided that a 3 ring binder with basaeball card protectors works the best. I have shared my results with friends along the way and have been asked questions by several of them and so I decided to start a website to put all of the days "hot finds" and tips I have came across. SO let's get started on this new adventure.
