Over $300 in Coupons for My First Giveaway

The contest is closed and the winner has been notified.  
Congratulations to fellow freelance writer Tamara McRill!

I asked my readers how they'd like me to run a coupon giveaway and there was little response.  After spending hours cutting and sorting coupons yesterday, I decided to group those expiring soon and offer them as my first giveaway so they wouldn't go to waste.

This envelope contains a batch of coupons totaling well over $300 in savings in all categories.  Most expire at the end of August with some expiring the first week or so in September.  I will put it in the mail on Monday, August 22 so the winner should received it on Wednesday, August 24, or the 25th at the latest.

My favorite thing about couponing is getting a lot more bang my buck! I can't remember the last time I bought something without a coupon... Paying full price for something is just pointless to me!

I love it when a coupon coincides with a great sale and the item is free!

I love coupons to just save on daily things we need here @ our home. Now, there is supposed to be an ongoing coupon help for our military that if the coupons aren't past 6 mo. old, they will honor them for the military. I have to check to see if the Commissary on Lejeune is honoring this. It was in a news article in the Wilmington News a few days ago.

My favorite thing about couponing is spreading my money as far as possible. We budget every dollar that comes in, and coupons allow my family to get what we need and not have to worry about money as much.

Marie Anne, I am already following you on Twitter and liked your Facebook page. I shared this on my wall too.

My favorite thing about couponing is getting things for free! It doesn't happen all that often, but I just love it when it happens. ;-)

(Thanks Marie Anne, lol, it not only won't let me sign in, it cut off the bottom part of the post.)

My favorite part of couponing is saving money and getting some items completely free just by paying attention to sales.
