I appeared on Chicago's channel 7 (ABC) morning news in a segment on hidden grocery deals! Take a look:

I was on the CBS Early Show Thursday morning! The segment featured me and other couponers around the nation, along with Stephanie Nelson, Coupon Mom, talking about coupon savings:

I was on the CBS News again today at 5:00pm in Chicago in a follow-up segment to yesterday's coupon shopping story. This segment focused more on my coupon tips for saving the most money, as well as deals at the store that pay you some of your money back!

Take a look!

CBS 2 in Chicago followed a local mom's story of going from spending $300 a week on her groceries... to taking my class... to spending less on her first trip to the grocery store after she learned to Super-Coupon! This was a fun segment to work on, as many people ask if I ever take a person from the class, through the grocery planning process, and then to the store to shop. Take a look!

As I was listening to Johnny B this morning, he announced that there was a big story about me in the Daily Herald today on the front page of the Neighbors section..! I did the interview a few weeks ago, but it is not in my edition of the Herald -- I believe it's in the Cook County edition. From Johnny's description, it sounds like a pretty nice piece! If you get the Daily Herald in Cook County, let me know if you've seen it :) Update: The article is online now here.

I am thrilled to announce that my Super-Couponing class is going to be filmed for a broadcast event and DVD release... and you're all invited to attend! :) The filming takes place Saturday, March 28th!

During the filming, we want to hear from YOU! If you've been Super-Couponing for a while already and enjoying success, we want to hear about it! Bring your best receipts and stories to the filming, and you may be chosen to share your savings in a series of short cutaway segments that will be interspersed throughout the final video.

"What happened to your blog?"

1100+ emails later and a phone that never stopped ringing gave me a very big reminder just how many people read the blog every day. I love my blog too, and I knew over 5,000 of you read it daily... but today, a good portion of my readers were left hanging when they tried to visit their favorite coupon hangout on the web.

Last night's Super-Couponing class in Huntley was BIG!

The class, sponsored by the Grafton Township Food Pantry, took place at the Cosman Cultural Center at the Huntley Park District. Over 260 people attended this class and learned how to save big on groceries! It was a fantastic, fun community event for everyone involved too. A big thanks to John Rossi and the staff of the Grafton Township Food Pantry for their continued work in our community too.

When I filmed last week's segment with Fox News, they also filmed part of my pantry, which didn't make the cut in the piece that aired. But so many of you emailed asking to see what it looked like... so here's the current state of my pantry!

I love featuring photos of my readers' favorite stock-ups. Here's CouponKingKevin and his 280 cans of soup!

He and his lovely wife have each been making a trip to Jewel every day after work this week to buy soup for their local food pantry, which has been hit hard lately. They stressed that this was bought at several different stores, 10 cans at a time, and they did not clean out any one store. So many people will be able to eat meals because of their generosity! And it did not cost them a thing. :)
