October 2008 Moderator of the Month - irishlass

[MrsPinecone]

Name in real life: Kim

Age: 45 ( almost the big 46 )

Home State: born in Illinois......lived in Missouri since I got married (at 17)

Marital Status: Married to the same guy for 28 yrs

Kids: none:frown: but hubby has kids

Pets: none

In Her Own Words:

Little Known Factoid: I am a major procrastinator. How I ever manage to get the ads posted I havn't a clue.

A fun thing I did....I wanted to learn to scrapbook so I scrapbooked a stuffed monkey for my Grandson. I took the monkey everywhere, McDonalds, Walmart, to work, the bank, dentist, Mount Rushmore. I even dressed him up for halloween and took him trick or treating. When I shipped the book and monkey to my grandson in Germany....I couldn't bear to part with the "original" monkey, so I went and bought a new one and kept the other one.

Favorite Money Saving Tip: rainchecks.......you never know when it will be a better deal so be sure to get them. Never pay full price unless you absolutely have to.

Budget: no real set budget, I just don't buy if I can't afford it.

Stores I shop at: Walmart & of course Walgreens

Coupon Organization Method: I file by date, and only clip what I need, unless I know upfront I will use the coupon. I carry a binder with the coupons I will definately use, along with my handy dandy calculator.

Best Advice to Newbies: Go slow, and read, read, read. Start small and in no time your stockpile will grow. Ask questions, that is what we are all here for.

Irish Lass's informative posts in the Walgreen's forum are the only reasons I was able to get up to speed and get organized enough to shop there in the first place and her level head and sense of humor often makes my day. Thank you, Irish Lass!!
