Krogers brag for today. I bought 9 bottles of Suave shampoo and conditions and 5 bottles of French's worcester sauce today at Krogers in Atascocita TX for 2 cents. I have a $1 Q for each swave and a free coupon for each Frenches. They did a few overrides for me and asked that I not do this often, but they approved it today, and I was great fun! I think you guys are teaching me a few things!

Hello all on the Kroger thread. I am still having a hard time figuring out how to really save and make the most out of my coupons. I have all of my coupons organized, but I am still not sure how to make the most of them. HELP ME!!! Please I want to save money and stockpile too.

WTG on your great savings. There are many here who are pros at how to do it to max advantage. Zoeys Mom and JANE4Girls are two of my heroines. They told me the key was to read, read, read. Gradually build a stockpile so you can wait for the right combination of sale and Q's to replenish your stash with max savings. You can also join the Trader In Training (TNT) forum to learn how to get the Q's you need by trading.

I'm certainly not where I want to be with it yet. But it is getting better.

Good luck!

I so agree - I've learned so much just by reading. I'm not to absolute expert yet, but last night at Walgreens I paid oop $40 for $130 worth of items that I will definitely use! (and I got back a $5 register reward!) Four months ago I could not have done so well. I can't wait until I'm mostly living off my "Stockpile"! One of the clercks mentioned that they had wondered when I might be wandering in.

Anyone living in the Humble/Atascocita Area of Texas. Please come to coupon exchange club. The next weekly meeting is scheduled to meet this week on Thursday November 6, 2008 at 7PM at Arby's on FM1960 in Atascocita. Anyone who has an interested is very welcome to attend. Please bring coupons you don't want, a pair of scissors, and a desire to walk away with coupons you can use. DIRECTIONS: If you are headed towards Huffman from Hwy 59 on FM1960 the Arby's in on the right just past the Garden Center. Its especially great to exchange coupons and savings ideas in person. I have missing this meeting as much as I hate missing out on a good shopping deal.
thanks - linda
