  • 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!

Update on Saving

Published by couponanimal under Uncategorized Edit This

I am starting to bring my blog together by designating a certain post for each day. So far this is what I’ve come up with and it will probably change as I tweak things a bit.

Sunday: “How to Save Sundays” - I will bring you great online or in-store deals that I find.

Monday: “Miscellaneous Mondays” - Every Monday will have a different topic from recipes to new coupons to print. Sometimes I may have store match-ups or deals I have gotten. It depends on what I find.

Tuesday: “Teaching You Tuesdays” - I will bring you a tip each week on how to save money or just be more frugal. These topics can range from shopping to personal beauty tips that won’t hurt your wallet.

Wednesday: “Weekly Deals Wednesdays”-This will include grocery store match-ups for 1 or more stores depending on my time restraints. Or I will include a sneak peek at what coupons to expect in the upcoming Sunday paper.

Thursday: “Time for Online Thursdays” - This will be full of online shopping deals. You can really find some great bargains!

Friday: “Frees on Fridays” - I will list freebies for the week and also try to post a photo of what I’ve gotten free in the past week when shopping.

Saturday: “My Savings Saturdays” - This will be my savings for the week after all my shopping is done.

Like I said this is just a rough draft. I may have to change things depending on how my shopping goes and time restrains. (And also what type of deals are out there floating around.) However I want to provide a source for reliable and timely information so you can cash in on the savings as well! Any suggestions?  Just leave a comment!
