We received several nominations from members for dominicsmommy. Kristy does a great job in helping out in HCW's ACME forum as well as in our coupon trains forum. She is all business and you hardly see her post outside of her forums and that really shows her dedication to HCW members.
Here is Kristy's community spotlight profile, lets all congratulate her on a job well done. HCW has many great volunteer moderators and without them HCW would not be the great place that it is. Thank you to Kristy and all of the HCW moderators!

I love to ride/conduct trains:) The bigger and crazier the train the better!! Favorite Money Saving Tip:
I LOVE Catalina deals in Acme--it is the absolute best way to save money and build a stock pile. It not only helps my family but also allows me to donate to food banks!! Budget:
I don't really have a set budget but I try not to spend any more than 30.00 per week on everything, food and HBA. With my stock pile from Acme I have really been fortunate to stay under that amount for the last couple of months. Stores I shop:
Acme and Shop Rite Coupon Organization Method:
Hmm.. well I don't have a set organization method but what I am using right now is I separate the q's I will use to a separate holder and have them by ABC and category. Then all my trading/train q's are in shoe boxes filed the same way. I cut all my q's and file them away cut. Best Advice to Newbies Do not get overwhelmed, and believe me it is so easy to. When I first started with stockpiling/copuponing I thought I had to buy a lot but hey really they run enough sales that you will be able to build a huge stock pile in time. Don't be too demanding of yourself. Most of all have FUN while shopping, you will make many friend in the stores when they start to see you all the time. My 3 year old actually asks if we are going shopping because he loves seeing the employees there and yes he knows their names too!! :)
