One thing I got to go do with Nana was take her shopping with coupons. She’s talked about learning to use coupons for years and recently has been following my blog. So, I clipped a few Qs from her recent 8/29 inserts and we went to Walmart. We talked about how she would probably “make 3 cents” because she was going to use a $1 Q for a $.97 item. Gotta love those coupons that say “on any size”. We also talked about looking at specific wording on Qs and not just getting the item pictured. You should have seen the look on her face when the Tide Q beeped and the cashier starts looking at the register log and through the bag. I wish I had taken a picture! Nana later said that she was glad the cashier didn’t ask her any questions because she wouldn’t have known what to answer. We laughed several times about it.
Taking her coupon shopping has shown me that I haven’t done a very good job teaching new couponers who are visiting the blog. I am going to do my best to get some tutorials up on the site in the next couple of weeks to help you get started. Meanwhile, feel free to shoot me an e-mail with any questions. That will also help me see what types of things I need to be sure to include in the tutorials.
