  • About Me

    I'm happily married with 6 fur-babies! (2 dogs and 4 cats and they are all special needs.) My life is dedicated to helping animals in some way or another. I've practically made a full time job out of couponing. I've been doing this for a little over a year and I'm addicted! It seems to always amaze people how much I'm able to get for very little money so I thought it'd be nice to share! It is very time consuming but worth every penny saved! I also hope to help new couponers get into the game!

Keeping It Simple

Published by couponanimal at 1:38 pm under Uncategorized Edit This

Today I’m keeping my post simple. No match ups or great deal posts (sorry).

Here’s why:

1.  I’m cutting back on my shopping this week. I will not be doing any grocery shopping until next week. It’s not always how much you save…it’s how much you spend. Yes, there are great deals, but you will never save more than not spending anything! We have enough stockpiled necessities to get us through the week (probably longer).

2. I am working on really personalizing my blog and trying to come up with a method for each day’s post. Over the next few days I will be changing things a bit.  I not only want to bring you great deals from stores, but I also want to share online bargains, inexpensive & delicious recipies and other things.  Ideally, I’d like to have a day designated to each topic. Once I lay out my plan I’ll let you know!

Here are some topics to look forward to: Recipes, Inexpensive Decorating Tips, How to acquire more (and sometimes better) coupons, How to save more at the grocery store, more free things to do, how to save at restaurants, and much more!
