Column 10-29 Great Halloween FREEBIES

I was shopping last week with my folder of coupons when a women asked me if it is really worth it to use coupons. After about 20 minutes of talking, I convinced her that it is crazy not to spend time cutting coupons. I even walked with her through the store and pointed out deals.
She told me that she has seven children, and her husband had to get an evening job to help pay the bills. I told her that getting her children involved with coupon clipping would benefit her and teach her children better spending habits.
Buying the Sunday newspaper for coupons, and using all the coupons offered at your store, will save you money.
