About

I am the frugal minded mom to three active children and wife to one hard working man! They are my first priority in life!

I spent seven years of my life teaching elementary school and learning how to live on very little. My first teaching position at a private school paid $10,800 for the full year. I learned very quickly how to budget my money to pay for rent, utilities and groceries and even saved money.

When my daughter was born, I decided to give up my teaching career and focus on being a mom -and that I did. I had three children in three years and my life has been a whirlwind ever since!

I have always been frugal-minded and conscious of saving money. The coupon journey began for me in early 2007 when a friend introduced me to a mega sale at Kmart. I had so much fun and I never looked back.

I am a deal addict and love the feeling I get when I have scored a really great deal! My family has been able to live life to the fullest by being careful about how and where we spend our money.  Our savings at the grocery store has easily topped $7,000 per year and we have been able to use that money to do a lot of other things!

Most of all, I love sharing my deals with friends and teaching others how to live better by spending less.

Thanks for reading and happy saving!
