So here is my first attempt at being a couponista. Not a big haul, but still just beginning. And honestly, trying to do this with a crying child is rather hard, so I have to slip in the time when I can. Anyway, all this for $8.45:

Trying to become a Couponista
So my sister has been couponing for several years, and has been helping me save tons with diapers and wipes ever since last year when we found out I was pregnant. But I've finally decided to invest the time and energy into becoming a couponer and do my own research, sunday paper buying and planning to get awesome deals on every day things I know we will need. This way I can stock up early when things are super cheap and save us big money in the long run. I'm loving the Krazy Coupon Lady. The only problem I have is that Portland is a test market for Reward Points, instead of receiving Register Dollars, at Walgreens, so a lot of the fabulous deals she gets at Walgreens I have to ditch, because I don't get the Walgreens dollars back. Kinda stinks, but I deal.

That's impressive! Good for you!
That's incredible!!! I think your buy was amazing :) Let me in on the secret??? How do you start? I've done coupons from newspapers and signed up for personal Safeway coupons, but not much else.
very nice. :) And don't worry... eventually the wags test market will go nationwide. I'd stick with Rite Aid or CVS if you have it in your area. :)
Next time you are in Utah you must teach me your skills. Or you need to compose a couponing tutorial. I feel like now that I am a stay at home mom I need to have make this a new hobby, but I don't know where to start!
you need to make a new post... and by the way...I heard a rumor that the rewards program that Wags has been testing is going to get given the kibosh this year. :)
