Hi my name is Sherry I live in Colerain Township. I started to use coupons recently. I had cancer 5 years ago and need to do couponing because every november I start Christmas shopping and then the suffering starts. Coupons are great, and since I have joined the website I have already have over half of my christmas shopping done for this coming Christmas.

Congrats on being a survivor!

I know exactly where you are talking about! Is your hubby full time Army? My DH was before we met. 6 years active, then 6 years National Guard. He really misses it sometimes.

Hi, I'm Candy, 36 and I'm in the Marion. I have couponed since buying my house and having my daughter at 19. I have a son who is 15, my daughter is 17 and my wonderful husband of 2 years has a 13 year old daughter. Me and my husband are lucky enough to have full time jobs. My daughter is going to University of Cincinnati in the fall, Pre Med. I used to hate Kroger and a die hard Meijer shopper untill I found the kroger forum.... my daughter needs the discount gas. lol Thanks to everyone one on the forum, you make shopping kroger so much easier.

he did 6 years out of Ft. Bragg, then when his IRR was up (like later the same month) he reenlisted into the reserves. his unit was in Ft. Thomas. they were deployed 5 months later (his second tour of Iraq), so he has that year as active. then this past october his AGR (active guard reserve) contract was picked up over by you. so he is gaining active duty years (goes to work everyday at the unit etc) but is with a reserve unit.

its allowing me to finally go to school. we have all the benefits of active duty just no base commissary (though I can, as you well know, go to any base in the us and use thiers. lol)

so in october he'll have 8 years in active duty. 12 more and he retires. he'd be 43. lol as long as he can stay AGR, he'll do it. though that means in a few years we might be moved to another unit...anywhere.

Hi..My name is Tracy and I am a stay at home mom of 4 wonderful children ages 14, 12, 11 and 9. We live in Hillsboro. I started couponing in August of 2008 due to browsing and came across....yes an awesome GLADE deal..lol I donate a little bit to charity but most goes to my household and my thieving brothers and sil's. There has been a marked difference since I have been couponing and I thank everyone here who takes the time to help us newbies make sense of cats, blinkies, peelies, rr, etc etc. God Bless!!

Sounds like we need a local swap! I go to that CVS all the time. It is about a mile from my house! =)

Hi!! I go to that Wags and Meijers also! We are (unfortunately??) about 5 minutes from Walgreens, CVS, Kroger and Meijer, so my head is spinning! Although lately I'm considering giving up on Wags (well, after this weeks diaper deal!)--I can't keep up!
