Yeah, I’m Couponing

Posted by Brooke on June 26, 2011 in Random Thoughts |

If you know me well, you probably won’t be surprised about my latest hobby, because I get into random, ridiculous things all the time. I’ll be honest, I saw Extreme Couponing on TLC and said, that looks fun. I’m not doing it to save money or support my five kids on $150 a month, but I’m doing it because it sounded fun, challenging, and like that it came with small victories on a regular basis.

I’m a few weeks in, and the jury is still out if it’s actually going to save me money. In fact, I’ve bought a ton of stuff I wouldn’t have otherwise purchased and even at 60-80% savings that’s still a net loss, but it sure is fun to see that percent savings on the receipt.

I have no intentions to make this a blog of any purpose other than keeping track of (ok bragging about) my savings. If you want to learn about how to Extreme Coupon, you should read one of the many other blogs out there. I check Thekrazycouponlady.com daily (ok 5 times or more) and there are tons out there that actually explain things. This is about me and my mini victories until I get bored with this and find a new hobby.

Oh and the name, well, when you buy two bags of pistachios because you got BOTH for $3.50 and then sit around and eat them, it’s inevitable.
