Beginner Couponer on Board

Ok, let's first start out with a moment of silence for my Steelers..........thank you.

And now, for my next big project.  I have decided that I'm determined to become a couponing queen!  My husband will deploy at the end of March and I'm going to use that time to become a great coupon shopper.  I've tried this once before.  But I didn't do it right.  I wasn't using the coupons while items were on sale and I was buying things I didn't need just because I had a coupon.  So, I'm trying again and I want to do it right this time.  I've been doing a lot of research and I feel like I'm ready to start.  I know that it will take me some time to get really good at it, so I'm not expecting huge savings right away, but I'm excited to get started.  I literally spent all day organizing my coupon binder, going through coupons I already have and studying this week's circulars for two stores near my house.  And let me tell you, I already found a couple of great deals.  I will be blogging about this experience and hopefully some of you have tips for me or will learn from some of my adventures.  Scissors ready....and....clip!
