  1. To the panel this morning: Great job! Thanks for helping us learn how to save even more.

    I just wanted to add a few websites that I like. I'm a huge fan of both couponmom.com and moneysavingmom.com as you mentioned, but I also like to check Southernsavers.com the night before Triples or Super Doubles at HT. She has a list of all items you can get for free...not just things that are on sale, but anything on the shelf sale or not that is free w/ a triple coupon. I've gotten tons of boxes of pantiliners, dental floss, ketchup, etc. w/ her list. Her list only comes out as a preview on those special coupon weeks.

    I also signed up as a member at Vocalpoint.com. They have 'try and tells'. They send you the product for a review in return and w/ the product comes an abundance of coupons to use and share w/ friends. Some products I've recently received: Secret clinical strength deoderant, Olay ProX wrinkle cream. You can print some coupons online and others they send in the mail. I also got a book packed w/ about 10 Kashi cereal coupons, some $3.00 off and some $1.50. I've gotten lots of free Kashi w/ those! -Stephanie B.

  2. I got the couponing bug after the MOPS meeting we had last spring- and it is really addictive to get so much for so little!!

    I went through several coupon organizing systems- the small acordian organizer, the photo album with plastic sleeves, and all of them just didn't work efficiently for me. I want to share a great website that I found that sells heavy quality, multiple sized plastic sleeved pages. They work AWESOME to hold lots of coupons, all visible, and really hold up well. Check out www.momsaves.com. They fit a three ring binder, and I strongly recommend you get one that zips up all around. The lady that runs the website is so nice to work with, that when she sent my order, she included 10 circulars of coupons!!

    I also do www.mysurvey.com and answer brief surveys online. You earn points that you can trade in for cash or items. I just "cashed-in" my points for the last few months for a $30 check. That will help with Christmas presents- and all for sitting a few extra minutes on the computer. I have also been sent new makeup foundations, deodrants, shampoos, etc to test for them. It is really cool to see new products coming onto the market before anyone else.
