I have to admit that I have always felt slightly irritated when I'm at the grocery store and the person in front of me pulls out a fat wad of coupons. The only coupons I ever use are the 40% off ones at Roberts and Michaels. But hey, tough times call for desperate measures. With the high cost of everything nowadays I have decided to join ranks with the tight wads. I mean frugal. I am going to clip coupons! I put together a nifty coupon binder. I have 16 different divider tabs and trading card protectors to store the coupons in. I also found an awesome blog called Being Frugal Is Fabulous. She tells you how to get started and keeps an up-to-date post of great deals and terrific coupons. Check it out! www.frugalisfab.blogspot.com If you are interested in becoming a coupon clipper, leave me a post or shoot me an email. Maybe we can come up with a fun weekly challenge or some such.

You are so ambitious - put me to shame! I use to clip coupons, but I always forgot to use them so I stopped. Maybe if I were better organized like you!
I've thought about the whole coupon thing and thought I should give it a try if I can remember what I have a coupon for when I'm at the store. I'll have to check out that blog.
Love It! You are so creative.
Great binder! I am interested in going to bat with you. I know we live far apart, but the challenge thing sounds like fun. Let me know.
You always have such good ideas and you're so organized--I need to be more like you!
Sign me up - maybe I can find coupons that I can actually use!
Okay, so now you have to tell us where you bought your trading card protectors, your cute binder and what are your 16 different dividers? I went to Walgreens today and saved a TON! Love it!
Love it! Did you get this idea off my blog? If so, it makes me happy to see someone benefitting from a great idea. I haven't even made mine yet! Mabye I need to show yours off too. I'm honored to be on your links list. Thanks! Take care.
Hi Jenni! I'm Gina's sister in law Megan, I met you at the book club. I definitely need to be more frugal! I'm up to the challenge, and I like your blog! I learned how to make syrup today...
Hey -
Do you mind me asking how much it cost you to get it all together? And if you want a fun website go to www.pinchingyourpennies.com. Here in utah they have a newspaper special to get 5 sunday newspapers so you can stock up on coupons.
