Hotcouponworld ranked 15th in the nation for Mom-Entrepreneurs

Thursday, June 18th, 2009

Hotcouponworld is owned and operated by two mom with eight kids.  Many of the Hotcouponworld moderators are also moms as well.  So it’s only fitting that Coupon Girls, the parent company to Hotcouponworld and Organic Grocery Deals took 15th in a nationwide contest held by Start-Up Nation this spring. 

With over seven thousand entries, our Hotcouponworld members voted us one of the top mom businesses in the country.  Coupon Girls is an Oregon-based company, and there were a handful of businesses from Oregon in the top 200 businesses profiled. 

However, was an extreme honor to come so near to the top of the list.  We’re appreciative of our members, mods, and our families, and we thank everyone who has helped us reach this success.

This video is a recent news story about our win!  LINK TO VIDEO

Owner Julie Parrish Interviewed on KATU Portland OR.

Thursday, March 19th, 2009

PORTLAND, Ore. - Savvy shoppers know they can bring just about any coupon to Albertsons and save tons of money on their grocery bills but all that is about to end.

Starting Wednesday, the grocery store chain will no longer accept competitor coupons, a move that is already beginning to send  coupon clippers into a tailspin.

Julie Parrish, who runs www.hotcouponworld.com out of her home in West Linn, said consumers are writing in and complaining about the move.  Many of them were saving hundreds, even thousands of dollars a year by taking all their coupons to Albertsons.

“I think on average you could easily cut 50 percent of your grocery bill,” she said.

According to a company spokesperson, the big change in strategy is meant to avoid problems like running out of inventory for items that other stores are offering big savings on.  But when we called the regular customer service number, a representative said it’s simply that more people are using coupons these days and they are just losing too much money.

Albertsons said it does still have several ways for customers to save money, like its preferred savings card and gas rewards program.

March is frozen food month!

Monday, March 9th, 2009

Did you know that the month of March is designated as “Frozen Food Month”? What this means for the frugal shopper is that this is a great time to be watching for deals and coupons on things like ice cream, pizza, frozen vegetables and other great items to fill your freezer.

Also be on the look out for deals offered by some grocery stores that will be running specials on freezers themselves with the purchase of certain amounts of frozen foods.

For more information on sales cycles check out Hotcouponworld’s Sales Cycles thread in our forums.

For more information on what items you can or cannot freeze check out Hotcouponworld’s Storage Guides: How to Buy, Store & Use Anything forum.

Let Hotcouponworld Be Your Valentine this Year Contest

Saturday, January 17th, 2009

I know Christmas isn’t about the gifts, but sometimes, you just hope your significant other nails it and gets you something you’ve really been hankering for.  This year, I got house numbers for Christmas.  You know, the numbers that get affixed to the side of the house so the FedEx guy can find your house to delivery all the cool gifts you bought for your sweetheart!

So, for everyone who got house numbers (ok, I’m the only person on the entire planet who got them) or any other functional-type gift that left you going “Um, gee, thanks” then we have a contest to ensure that FIVE lucky Hotcouponworlders will get something a little more to their liking for Valentine’s Day.

Check out this post in the Announcements forum for details.  You must be a registered member to participate!

Good luck, and here’s hoping that I don’t get BBQ tools or some other odd thing for Valentine’s this year!
