This blog is no longer active. I stopped "hard-core" couponing in August 2010 to dedicate my time to wedding planning. Since then, and even after the wedding, I have not returned to the hard labor involved with scoring all these crazy deals. I have a great stockpile that allows us to not need to buy health and beauty items for a good few years. And as far as the food deals, I am no longer interested in getting the processed foods found at Kroger, Randall's or HEB for free or cheap.
Please do feel free to take a look at the posts from the past, as you may be inspired to start or continue couponing in the future. I may return to it someday once I run out of my 150 bottles of body wash or 300 rolls of toilet paper.... but until then, I had a great time!
