Newspapers and Extreme Couponing the Grocery Smart Way!

Have any of you been watching Extreme Couponing on TLC? It is a bit extreme, but I love to watch to see what the end result will be. I know that heart pounding, nerve racking feeling as you stand at the register and watch all your coupons being scanned and hoping that you did it right to get the best deals.

I'm so excited to share a little secret....one of the segments on the June 8th edition of Extreme Couponing will feature someone who uses the Grocery Smart method!!! You'll get to see just how smart you can coupon the Grocery Smarts Way! Many of the shows have featured stores that double and triple the price of coupons, but this segment will show how it's done without those perks. I'm hoping you'll pick up a few tricks along the way.

Also, if you live in California or Nevada I can also help get you started on your couponing journey by getting you started with newspaper subscriptions. All you need to do is contact me and I can start the process callmestacy@yahoo.com or 801-589-3946.

Just a reminder that I can also get you started on the Salt Lake papers:

1 paper is $50 for 52 weeks

2 papers are $100 for 52 weeks

3 papers are $150 for 52 weeks

4 papers are $200 for 52 weeks

(you can also get 26 week subscriptions - just contact me and I'll get you that info).

Couponing is not hard, it's just setting up the time to do it. Rewarding yourself with the savings is the best gift you'll give yourself and your family. I teach free classes and would love to teach for you! Contact me above and we can schedule a date, time and location!

I'm booking classes for April and May

Wow! March has been a busy month for Grocery Smarts classes. I think people are realizing that saving is truly a necessity and not a luxury! In my opinion, I think saving at the grocery store has to feel like winning the lottery (not that I've ever won, buy you know that euphoria you feel when you've saved a TON!).

It's awesome to check the bottom of my receipt and see that I've saved anywhere between 40 and 60% everytime I go. If you'd like to book a class contact me soon (callmestacy@yahoo.com or 801-589-3946)! April is starting to fill up (I still have a few dates) and I'm also booking into May.

Enjoy a free class where I will teach you how to get coupons, organize them and match them to local sales where you will get the most bang for your buck!

Another big coupon class coming up!

For those of you that couldn't attend the last class at Weber State's West Center, I'm doing another one! I will teach you how to save between 40% and 60% on every grocery trip.

Join me on 8/4/09 at 7:00 pm.
It's located at: 5627 S 3500, Roy, UT 84067 (next to the Chevron and across from Artic Circle and Kent's Market).

Remember this class is FREE and open to the public. Click on this link to sign up. The class is called "Feeding Your Family on a Shoestring Budget."

Robyn, attended my last class in June and is already saving more than 50% on her grocery trips.

I hope to see you there!

Hosting a class

I haven't blogged about hosting a class in a while, so I thought I'd take the opportunity.

I honestly save between 40 and 60% every time I go to the grocery store. I would love to show you how I do this.

I'm currently booking classes for June and July. If you'd like to pull a group together (co-workers, friends, family, neighbors, church groups, mom's groups, couples - whatever), I would love to teach you this. I'll come to you.

• The class is free
• The website I use is free
• And who couldn't use a fun night out? (I promise to make it fun).

You can email me at callmestacy@yahoo.com or call me at 801-589-3946 to set up a date and time.

Coupon Class Reminder

I don't know about you, but I just recently got my December bill from my credit card and yes - it made me cringe a little.

If you're interested in saving money at the grocery store, I can certainly help you.

I teach a free class that will show you how to:

1- get coupons
2 - organize those coupons
3 - use the free website (Grocery Smarts)
4 - decipher some grocery lingo
5 - play some games
6 - and ULTIMATELY - put more $$ back in your pocket.

All you have to do is:
1 - contact me (callmestacy@yahoo.com or 801-589-3946)
2 - get a few friends, neighbors, family members etc.... together
3 - we'll set a date and time and place
4 - I'll come and you'll learn

The class is about 30-60 minutes. I also do mom groups, church groups (enrichments) or any other type of gathering. You could turn this into a fun GNO or a Saturday brunch.

If this sounds like something you're interested in - I hope to hear from you soon. I'm currently booking the rest of February and into March and April.
