Let's Save Some Money .........The Couponing Way

I am constantly asked about my couponing, saving money in general, and when friends come over, my stockpile. So I thought I'd go through some beginning steps to help anyone getting started or anywhere in the beginning stages of couponing, to get a jump start or maybe just refine what they already do to save money. When I refer newbies to HotCouponWorld.com, I hear what I said myself when finding this site......."I AM SO OVERWHELMED BY IT!" So, I thought I'd break it down slow and easy to help you out. In light of the economy, more and more people are looking to save money this way.......so let's get started.

Click on any of the links below and lets SAVE SOME MONEY!

**NEW** The "Show Me The Money" Series!

Now that we've looked into ways of slowing spending in our households through coupon use, let's find out how to BRING IT IN! SHOW ME THE MONEY is a new series created to explore ways to trickle earnings into your home for free products, gift cards, even money. None of these ways are going to make a difference over night, however you will start to see little differences that add up. Take surveys that will eventually add up to a payout. Ebay the stuff lying around you don't use. And more!

2 MORE ways to get coupons.

Here are a couple more ways to collect coupons....

#1 - Find the companies website and look around for coupons/promotions links or tabs. I have many sites stored in my FAVORITES, which I visit frequently to see if there is a link that will lead to a coupon. MANY times there are!

#2 - Contact the company. This thought had never crossed my mind until I started reading money saving boards. The idea is that if you contact them to compliment them, or even complain, they will acknowledge your input by sending out coupons. I wanted to tell you about it because once I read about this on HCW, I went down their list and contacted tons of companies and actually got loads of coupons! I'd say I got better than half to respond.

Here is the list compiled and published at HCW:
