Coupon Class

The Coupon Class is scheduled for this Thursday, May 19th at my home (1883 Independence) at 7:00pm. 
I have received no responses on the blog about the class.  I need at least 10 people to come in order to hold the class.  If you are planning on coming, please post a comment on the blog.  Then I will know how many to plan on. 
Bring your friends and family too!  And don't forget, I'll have some kind of yummy treats there. :)
Please see post below "Savvy Shopper Coupon Class" for details about the class.

Thanks.

$80 Sleeping Bag for $30 - until May 7th

Big 5 Sporting Goods is closing out $80 zero degree sleeping bags for $30 until May 7th.  This is a great item for your emergency preparedness stash.
Bro. Tillotsen said there were only a few left at the AF location so you may want to call around or see if they can arrange a rain check.
Also, there are a lot of these same bags at Cabella's on sale for $40 if you'd rather go there.

Savvy Shopper Coupon Class

I will be hosting a Savvy Shopper Coupon Class at my home on Thursday, May 19th at 7:00.  This is for anyone interested in saving some $ on groceries and I highly encourage you to come! 
Just yesterday I came home with free Nivea Body wash, $0.50 kid yogurt 4 packs, free kid's toothpaste, $0.50 brownie mix, $0.50 Betty Crocker scalloped potatoes, and $0.93 2 lb. powdered and brown sugar.  I spent about 2 hours prep time and saved $35.50 in coupons. 
This is a great skill to learn in general, but is also such an easy way to stock up Food Storage!  At $0.93 per powdered sugar, I can afford to by 5 of them and store them.  I have a ton of toothpaste, soap, body wash, breakfast cereal, pasta, pasta sauce, brownie mix, BBQ sauce, etc, etc, in my food storage just from buying 5+ at a time with my coupon deals.
The class will be put on by Savvy Shopper and will teach us how to combine coupon deals with sales, organize coupons, use printable and loadable coupons, and use the Savvy Shopper free website to plan shopping trips.
Please leave a comment on the blog if you are able to attend so I may plan accordingly.  Please bring friends and neighbors!
