Couponing with Friends

I’ve been spreading the word at work about my new couponing adventure… not your typical water cooler talk but it works… no pun intended :). I was sharing a recent story about my quarrels with the newspaper stands: the multiple empty stands I encountered along the way (which happens when you don’t pick up a paper until 10pm), the difficulty in locating $6 in quarters, the stand that refused to return/stole my quarters, not even a serious shake or roundhouse will help you out here… I’ve tried.  Anyways, I come to find out that one of my friend’s at work brings his L.A. Times in every Monday to recycle it… PERFECT opportunity to get some extra coupons!!  So I casually bring this up to him, a.k.a. bombard him in the hall the first chance I got… whateves , and he tells me that he occasionally clips some of the coupons, but that he will definitely bring me his extra coupon booklets… MAJOR SCORE my friends!!!


Here is a picture of the major coupon stash I got from my friend T:



After my second coupon sweep, and a generous donation from a friend, I have a total of 290 coupons… I like it!!!


P.S. The ‘Extreme Couponing’ premiere is tomorrow night on TLC so make sure to watch and see how good these ladies are at saving serious CASHH!!  :)  Happy viewing….
