Where to Start?

This question can apply to this blog and to the world of couponing!

One day back in April I clicked a link on a website that took me to this blog:
http://jane4girls800dollarannualbudget.blogspot.com/

As they say, the rest is history. I clicked around on her site and then found other sites and so it rolls... just like with coupons!!

I decided to give it a try and now 4 weeks later, I am having a blast...
  • I have too many coupons to possibly use, soon to start sharing with others who want to have as much fun as me
  • My pantry and utility closet are overflowing with food and household items, in a great way
  • I get a thrill every time a deal works the way I planned it, and frustrated when it doesn't
  • My thrill/frustration ration is > 75% now... way up from the first week of couponing
  • One coworker was so excited (finally, I'd been bragging for weeks already) about my savings and info on how to do it, she wanted me to give her a seminar!
  • I am currently stockpiling... so, I am getting more for my money while I can
  • My bookmarked sites are up to about 25 right now; when I can, I will link you on my sidebar

This week I'll be definitely by hitting
  • Walgreens, but not for much : [
  • CVS, they have great deals for Sun/Mon only : ]
  • Publix, once again they have awesome BOGO deals and when matched w/coupons...who can pass it up?? : ]]

I don't think I can get my budget down to $800 a year like Jane, but I already feel like I pwn couponing!
