In my Super-Couponing 2 classes, I talk about the clothing cycles and best times to buy clothing at low prices. One of those cycles is taking place right now! The weeks prior to Labor Day, and post Labor-Day, are fantastic times to buy clothes. Let me show you some of the deals I’ve gotten this week…
Hello Quad City readers!
I’m in the Quad City Times today, in a story about my Super-Couponing class scheduled there this fall. This will be my first class in this area, and I know many people are excited, as I’ve got a good base of readers for my newspaper column, “The Coupon Queen” in the paper here too! Check […]
Frequently Asked Questions
Since my syndicated newspaper column launched in 2008, I receive up to 1,000 emails a week asking coupon-related questions! I’m always happy to answer questions from people learning to coupon.
But many of the questions are asked frequently… hence, this Frequently Asked Questions :) If you’re new to couponing, chances are, the answer to your question may be here…
Saving on school supplies
Each year around this time, I’m asked by my readers how we can save big on school supplies! I wrote this post last year during school supply season, and everything in it holds true for this year as well. The biggest thing to remember is to stagger the shopping over the next couple of weeks and ONLY buy the loss-leader-priced items that are on your child’s list. Last year, I got my daughter’s entire list done for just over $5!
Don’t take your child’s school supply list to the store and buy everything in one trip.
Who’s Super-Couponing?
Sometimes when I’m booking new Super-Couponing classes, the organization hosting the class will ask what kind of demographic they can expect to attend. I truthfully tell them to expect… everyone! My classes have attracted people in their teens through their eighties, with an impressive number of men as well as women. Who doesn’t love saving money?
This week I received a great email from a blog reader that I’d like to share with you guys. Dave in Chicago writes…
How to use this site
As we have new people joining the blog every week, I thought I’d post a few quick notes on how to make the most out of using this site.
- Welcome! The “Deals of the Week” feature of my blog primarily has a Chicagoland focus, though now that my newspaper column, “Super-Couponing Tips” is syndicated nationwide, it also attracts readers from all over the country.
Many happy food pantries this week…
In case you somehow missed this one, Jewel has had Frosted Flakes on sale for .99 a box the past few days. Many people have had either $1 or $1.25 off the cereal on their electronic coupons… with no purchase limit.
So, what would you do? Free cereal, with overage — as much as you care to “buy?” Anytime a good sale comes around like this, it always thrills me to receive emails from readers who are stocking up not only for themselves, but also for their local food pantries.

On July 7, 2008, I launched this blog after a series of Chicago Sun-Times articles focused on my coupon habits. Last year in June, the Sun-Times ran a story on my shopping skills, focusing on the enormous cereal stock-up I’d made for $5 and change (which so many of you have seen detailed in my […]
Consumer brand loyalty disappearing at rapid rates…
I read an article today that “loyal” consumers of packaged goods are no longer as loyal as they used to be… this article states that last year, the average brand lost 33% of their customers’ brand loyalty:
Saving on television
When I was writing “Super-Couponing 2: Saving on Everything!” one of the questions I was frequently asked was “How do I save on Cable TV?”
The simplest answer? By not paying for it.
(Breathe. It’s okay. You’re going to do just fine without cable… because I don’t have it either. And I’m still watching all of my favorite shows… FREE. Legitimately, too — no illegal cable boxes or anything like that!)
