In the summer of 2008, longtime Chicago radio personality Jonathon Brandmeier asked if I’d come on the air to talk about grocery deals on his show… and Chicagoland was introduced to Super-Couponing! “Deals of the Week” quickly became a popular, recurring segment with listeners, and Johnny and I had many memorable mornings on the air throughout 2008-2009. (If you missed those glory days, here’s a sample of how crazy things could get on the show… who knew grocery talk could be so much fun?)
Well, Johnny’s back on the airwaves over at WGN Radio, and on Tuesday morning, February 7th, I rejoined him on the air for the first time in over two years! Here’s today’s clip:
2/7/12: Deals of the Week #1 – Jonathon Brandmeier – WGN (10:37)
Back after a long hiatus! A super beer, pizza, and ice cream deal, .75 Welch’s jelly, free clothing day at Sears Outlet… and free lube at Walgreens.
WGN Radio can be heard in 38 states (!) at 720AM on the dial, or listen online at wgnradio.com.
Listen to previous “Deals of the Week” segments on the Jonathon Brandmeier show!

Johnny B is how we first heard of you Jill! Can’t believe it has been so long. So many years of good savings since then =)

That is awesome! I became a Jill fan after my mom told me I HAD to listen to this great COUPON LADY on the Johnny B show… she is a huge and longtime Johnny B fan. So I did :-) and it took me several months before I got involved on the blog and took a class but I am so happy I did!

And we love you Jill! Can’t wait. I listen to Johnny B every morning on the way to work. I actually like my drive again.

Love Johnny B. and would sit outside work in my car just to hear your deals and then run into work (often late).
Congrats Jill and continued success!

Too cool Jill!! I especially loved when he called you the Bargain Babe!! You picked fun things to deal on too and he still got his jokes in and hihghlighted the deals even more!! Pretty awesome pair y’all are!

Jill, I’ve been visiting your site for about 1 1/2 years now and must say that your site is easier to use than the others I visit. You make everything clearly outlined and simple
to follow (i.e., excellent writing skills!)
Also, I see now what you mean by a coupon binder being a nightmare. I tried it and it was.
So, a big THANKS for all you have done for my family and me.

So glad you are back with Johnny B. Like another poster commented…I wouldn’t be here without hearing you on his show! Love to hear your deals! Keep em coming and hoping to hear you again with Johnny!
