New to it all

[JoM]

Hi there,

Just announcing myself as a new couponer and I'm quite excited to be starting this as my new hobby. Looking forward to seeing how much I can save us!

Looking for some fresh advice on how to start up and how to succeed with couponing, as well as where to find good deals/coupons.

Thanks in advance,

JoM

I'm sure you already know, but brandsaver, save.ca and websaver are good places to start. You can also look up the company name of some of the items that you and your family regularly buy and sometimes there are coupons on their web pages. If not, you can email complimenting them about their product (just dont overdo it) and sometimes they will send you coupons. I've had a lot of success with Huggies and Johnsons. Hope this helps

Welcome, i'm pretty new here too. I have noticed that once you start to order all your coupons they start coming in bunches which is really fun but does take a few weeks.

I am also new, went on my first little coupon shop this morning. Not sure if i did it right but spent $78 on stuff, but saved $18 with coupons and sales. My husband that that was a good start but I think i could have done better ... ah well i'll keep trying
