Cutting Coupons

Proverbs 31:27
"..She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness."

At some point I'm sure I'll blog about every verse in Proverbs 31: the wife of noble character. Today it's this one. I attended a coupon cutting class today as part of my mission to watch over the affairs of my household, namely our budget. The class was great, very informative and practical. I've always thought of cutting coupons as not really worth my time, but this teacher actually makes money off of buying products, what?! It's amazing and it's exactly what I need to do for our house.

I see my #1 job as raising Gram and my #2 job as saving us money, thus my new found interest in coupons. There is an art to cutting coupons, for sure, but one that I know I can learn and will be worth my time. I look forward to cutting our budget, stockpiling the necessities and throwing out the bread of idleness. I'll keep you posted on how I do.

If anyone has any tips about coupons or ways you have saved money for your household, do share!

    You should post more about how to do it, because i've tried and never been able to find the secret to really really saving. also, i am wondering if you can do it and still eat fresh whole foods. i'd love the help.
