I’m thrilled to announce that my Super-Couponing 2: Saving on Everything! class will be filmed for a DVD video release! Just as with my current Super-Couponing DVD, the video shoot will take place before a live audience. Filming is scheduled for Saturday, April 2 at the Gail Borden Public Library in Elgin (270 North Grove Avenue, Elgin, IL) at 9:00am. This is a great location that’s easily accessible from the tollway (near I-90 at Rt. 31.)
I’ve also got some special things in the works to “gift” my entire audience that day with coupon-related giveaways and merchandise as well!
This workshop is open to the public. Seating is limited to 200, and you can register online! Plan to arrive BY 8:45 as we will be starting as close to on-time as possible. The doors to the meeting room WILL close at 9:00am as the room will be a live set at that point.
PLEASE NOTE that if you register, and cannot attend, you MUST give 24 hours’ notice to the library by calling 847-742-2411 during business hours to release your seat to someone on the waiting list.
Notes: Because this is a live video shoot, I will not be holding a Q&A session after this class. Please understand that at the discretion of both the director and producer of the DVD, I may also stop and start occasionally if he feels he would like to re-film certain portions of the workshop. Additionally, be advised that upon entering the venue you are automatically consenting to being photographed/filmed as members of the audience, and audience footage will be featured throughout the DVD.
We had a lot of fun filming the first Super-Couponing DVD, and if you’d like to be a part of this new video production… sign up and save the date! :)
NEW! Preview extended interview segments from Super-Couponing 2: Saving on Everything! (I’m sure much of this will be edited down for the final release, but I wanted to share some of the footage with you!)

I’m totally stoked this will now be on DVD. In your experience (with production of the first DVD) how long do you think it will be until couponing 2 becomes available to us for purchase? And as always………Thanks for all you do Jill!!
jmdetz says
How much space do they have?

What if April 2nd happens to be a cazy Dr. Pepper/ Breyer’s type deal? LOL
gracz5 says
I agree with the others – I would LOVE to be a part of this, but would hesitate going to a “firstcome, first serve” situation. I’d have to drive about an hour and a half each way to get there. I would be willing to make a small donation to register. Either way, I’ll either get to a class or buy the DVD :) Keep up the great work Jill!
kensbaby93 says
(and never attenting a Super 2 class) I would love to come, but it is a LONG drive for me to risk not getting in. Any chance u need someone to help you carry in your equipment =P
Good Luck Jill!!!

Perhaps this is a bad idea, but why don’t you rent an auditorium in a High School. I’m sure you would still have to turn people away. Charge a small fee to cover the cost of renting a larger place then donate the rest to a food pantry…better yet, shop for the food pantry with the profit…..more food for less!!! Seriously Jill, you have changed my life and the way that I shop! Thank you so much your amazing!!!! Actually you could fill the Tweeter Center/World Music Center/First Mid West Amp….whatever it’s called these days!!! Would love to attend the tapping!!!
My kids think I’ve lost my mind, but I’m a loving it!!!
Divorced mother of two who has now found herself on a tight budget! You helped save my family and I, can’t thank you enough!
You would have been proud of me tonight, I taught two Jewel cashiers how to Super Coupon…Black Belt Deals! Actually went home and brought coupons back to the store for them to use tonight. They were excited to do some shopping on their own! Is that how that girl got two swifter refills so cheap? I was the dumb one who bought pringles with mine, just wanted to make sure that it worked. It was too funny. They were like is that what EVERYONE is doing. Did you learn from the Jill…what’s her name. I provided them all of the details and told them you were going to be in Orland Park in April! They were really excited!
You are the BEST!!!

I already called the library inquiring about the 4/2 class. They if you chose to have no pre registration, they require it. They don’t have that class on the calendar yet so I couldn’t pre register yet. They gave me a number to another lady that might be able to help with registering.

I notice it now says that the registration is closed as of 7pm this evening. Did it book up already, or did they accidentally copy the registration deadline from tonight’s class?
“We’re sorry. The registration deadline was 3/3/2011 at 7:00 PM.”
melanie1 says
Been watching this event and posted it on all my calendars, lined up baby-sitting only to come to my computer this morning and see the event had pre-registration now and is closed?! How do I get on the waiting list???
mirkitty76 says
okay so is it really closed now or still an error. I live in dekalb and went to one of your classes in waterman recently and loved it. I am new at this but with 3 daughters and me being disabled i am all in to learn as much as i can and save as much as i can. Is it possible to still come to the library taping or get on a waiting list. thanks for everything you have done to help all of us save money.
jmdetz says
Oh my you make me want summer and look beautiful :)
The video is great! Looking forward to SC2 in April :) I spent $29.06 at Dominick’s today – the recipt says I saved 79% – $102.41. I love this!!!!!
shouldbemakingdinner says
I just register for the Sat. 4/2 class/show. I can’t wait! I have been to both, but look forward to this one. You have taught us so much. It has been a little over a year for me and I am still addicted. I have learned to save on not only groceries, but everything else. You have really made a difference in so many households. Thank you!
AuntDiane says
Looks like it’s going to be a great video. Good luck with your filming on 4/2!

if I wear a KISS shirt, will I get on tv? ;) My 5 yr old told me I could borrow his..LOL.
Too Busy To Coupon says
oh man, I was out all weekend and came back to find that it’s full already. I put my friend Leslie and I on the wait list but I’m really bummed. We’re coming from an hour and a half away and really wanted to be there. Did you decide to do pre-registration for only part of the seats, or is the full 200 booked already? Just wondering what our chances of getting in are.
Thanks, Jill! We love your classes and your blog!

abigayle21 says
So pretty, so smart, so glad to have meet you and learned from you.
kensbaby93 says
I was certain class was 9-11 but checked registration info on library website and it says 8-11. Your site says 9-11 so I am thinking that is what is right. Clarifications please =D
angellam says
If seats had opened up we would have been contacted, yes?
MoscatoMomma says
Will we get a bathroom break during the filming? I’m worried about having to sit for 3 hours with the room locked.
Coupon Maven says
If you can’t make tomorrow’s shoot, PLEASE call the library today at 847-742-2411 and release your seat. The waiting list still has over 70 people on it, and the library WILL contact those people today if you can’t make it so that they can. I heard yesterday from someone who was waitlisted and didn’t think she would make it — and then someone remembered to call, and she’s thrilled that she can now come. Please take a minute to call if you are already registered for the class tomorrow and will NOT be attending. Thanks!

GONE
creativecoupons says
I got an email that I was moved from waitlist to main list late yesterday. Yeah!
mirkitty76 says
so upset …tried to get there because i was moved up to the main list yesterday and on my way there this morning I got stuck by 3 different trains in different areas…Seriously why was I not supposed to be there? I hope there is another class soon or the dvd releases quick…Could use all the help I can get with saving money. My husband and I are both on disability permenatly and having 3 daughters is getting expensive :)…Thanks again Jill for all you do and I am truly sorry I wasnt there hope everyone had fun and learned some great tips cant wait to learn them to.
J.R. says
What can I say. A long but fantastic morning. It’s amazing that Jill could keep her cool through everything. I think I learned more about video production than I really wanted to know. I think I’ll leave it to Jill to fill in whatever details she’s comfortable sharing.
In spite of all the pleas, there were still some empty seats in the room. And at least one person that didn’t turn off their cell phone despite several requests.
I wish I could have met folks and matched faces to screen names, but because the taping ran until almost noon, I had to get out of there so I can get somewhere else this afternoon.
msuboxhead says
Jill, the video shoot was fun. Thanks for teaching us your tricks….and for the nice treats. I appreciate how you’ve taught me to save so much for my family. Looking forward to trying some of these new techniques. I’m sure the finished product will be another hit for you.
ynotpat says
You were great! Thank you for teaching us your tips for saving. It was worth the drive from Tinley.
J.R. says
In the presentation you mentioned that couponnetwork.com had a list of current catalina offers.
I just went to the site, and I see printable coupons, YourBucks, and other tabs, but not the catalina list. I’m obviously not looking in the right place. Does any one have a link directly to the cat list?
