So here we go. The first blog.
It's kind of funny as I get back into couponing, I find myself slightly anxious. Like meeting up with high school girlfriends I haven't seen in years.
Will I measure up? I know that I can do amazing things with coupons and sales, will I be able to show my family,too so I don't look like a crazy lady with my newspapers and binders and envies? Will I be able to stay organized? Will I have enough time for this with a newborn? I hope my boys don't get into my stash and cut up my q's again. No that was 3 years ago. They know better now. Now they want to "help".
I'm already getting strange looks from dh as I die on the computer for hours.
Then I gave him an example. 2 pks Ball park, 2 Sara Lee buns, 2 Store brand buns, 2 coke zero 12 pk= $3.28
...so he shut up
At least I feel secure in that I have found a safety net here. In about 6 years of couponing on and off I have never felt such comraderie and mentoring. If I had this years ago I probably never would have quit.
Thanks All, I look forward to trading and making friends with all of you!

Good for you for getting back into couponing.
If it makes you feel any better, DH thinks I spend way too much time on the computer (HCW rocks!) too!

I forgot what I used to do before I had a computer.
