Am I being to nosey? LOL!
I started couponing back in Oct. 2009. I was invited to a neighbors in Sept. to cut coupons I wanted out of the multiple inserts she received from her family members that delivered the Chicago Trib. I did grab some coupons but never used them. "OUCH" that hurt to type... LOL! I decided to jump online one day and searching couponing in Illinois. That's where I found this wonderful forum!!!!!!!! I have not been the same since. I NEVER realized that you could use a piece of paper from the newspaper to get items for FREE!!! I now save TONS of $$$$$$$$$, I have given up smoking (an addiction I had for over 1/2 my life) and filled it with this AWESOME addiction of couponing. My pantry, closets, cabinets, garage, freezerS, fridgeS, and additional storage cabinets are FILLED TO THE RIM!!!! I am able to tell my children YES when they ask for items like new shoes, baseball items, clothing BECAUSE we now have extra money.
That is why I coupon to save $ and fulfill my need of being addicted to something... And YES to be able to tell my beautiful children YES instead of NO!
