Coupons & Saving Money

I am on a mission.......

Come join me, I am about to learn how to save money on groceries and that is something that we all could take advantage of.  In North Carolina we have The Piggly Wiggly which is a small town grocery store that offers all kinds of sales and promotions. They welcome all kinds of coupons in their store but there are limitations. Please click the link below to find out what they are.

Another favorite grocery store is Harris Teeter. At this grocery store they offer their VIC card which will have savings already on it and you can use that with your coupons. This store allows you to use up to 20 coupons per visit in one day. Read the link below to find out what their coupon policy is.

The next major grocery store in North Carolina is Food Lion. There coupon policy isn't as strict as Piggly Wiggly or Harris Teeter but they do accept internet coupons but no coupons on phones or tablets. Read their policy below.

Does anyone know anymore ways to save money? How do you save money at the grocery store?

Is it Worth It?

We all need to find new ways to save money.  Right?  I know I could!!!

Extreme Couponing is a popular television show on TLC, but Is it really worth all the time and effort spent doing it!? One lady's daughter told her it wasn't worth it on a show today lol.

We sat and watched 3 or 4 shows back to back.. it must have been a marathon. (lol)  It really amazed me how much money these people were saving!  This one lady had a total of  $1024.00 in groceries and only paid like $12.00 after all of her coupons... I was like WOWWWWWWW!!!  BUT... she had SO MUCH stuff!!

My husband jokingly/semi seriously said "I should start Couponing."  NOT!!  I mean, I see the benefits of saving money, but who has the room for the stock-piles? I know I don't!  I would like to start saving some at the grocery store, but I could not buy the bulk of merchandise that the people on the show do because I barely have room to store weekly groceries now.

However, I do need to start saving at the grocery store, things are getting so expensive!!  I figure I would start saving some coupons out of the newspaper for things I normally purchase and that would be a great start.  Who doesn't like saving a little money here and there!

Do you think it's worth it?  Do you coupon?  Do you have any tips for me?
