sorry i have no pics, dont know how to put them on here

i have been doing this for little over a month.... I'm on Mat leave have a beautiful little girl who is 6 1/2 months... Money is very tight when u r off work, i came accross this website b/c i typed in looking for more similac cheques due to the fact my daughter need soy milk.... and her milk was costing me a lot... i used to be scared to use coupons b/c people looked at u funny... i used to get diaper when they would go on sale for 12.00 use a 2.00 coupon, thinking wow 10.00 for a package of diaper then i would buy a couple... now i use coupons and PM.....and get diapers for really cheap, i told myself this a few weeks ago y didnt i do this sooner. I have picked up a few things for free just pay taxes most i had to pay a few dollars which im totally happy not paying full price anymore... my best story that happened to me since i started this is my Dad, he was so old fashion using a 2 blade razor...when the gelitte ones, went on sale a few weeks ago i picked him up a couple of the 5 blade ones.... mom said he didnt use them for a bit, but when he had no other razors left he used one of the new ones....he called me after using one and said "can u pick me up more of these razors, they r the best", paid just taxes for them...he put a big smile on my face and a tear to my eye....also since doing this i have save a lot of money i was able to buy my daughter a very nice new car seat, (she out grew her old car seat) before i was worrying how i was going to buy one.....i want to give a big shout out and thank you to the following people for helping me out a lot and answering my questions, the best people in the world

and to TaraF for adopting me

and to all the people that traded with me

I would like to thank everyone that left so nice comments....i want to quote TaraF " Keep it up! You'll NEVER go back to those "Non-coupon" days!"....so true.....i hear stories on here on how much people save....i have started a stock pile shelf and it full (its a big one)...i never have to buy some stuff....my brother jokes well if i need something i just go to my sisters house to shop...lol...yes it takes a lot of time to do this, its worth it in the end, to see the products u can get for cheap....hopefully someday i will post pics from my trips...my last LD trip it cost me 30.00 saved...200+ in coupons...i had a big smile walking out the store, plus the CS rep were excellent that day for me....never rejected any coupons....expect for similac (only take one know)...doesn't bother me if i have to pay for milk...i save on other stuff...ty again to everyone
