Don't Throw Those Coupons Away - Book Review and Giveaway

Don't Throw Those Coupons Away is how-to guide from Kristin L. Peoples to help you make the most of your grocey budget. It is filled with useful ideas, extensions of ideas you may already know and examples of how to make it work across the year.

For those new to couponing, Don't Throw Those Coupons Away is a great resource for getting started. The first two chapters are really informative and will help you decode not only the book, but the coupon lingo a lot of sites are using. This book makes an excellent accessory for the coupon sites that are specific to your area, and it also names a few great coupon resources online for finding coupons, deals and communicating with the companies.

After the introductory chapters, Don't Throw Those Coupons Away gives you targeted goals for planning your trips to the supermarket, drug stores and other shops. There is also a section on how to plan your trips all year long, prep your stockpiling while also preparing for time-sensitive sales and deals, and keeping in contact with those in your community who can help you stay connected to deals.

Some of this information is not new, but where Don't Throw Those Coupons Away gives details about something you've already heard, it gives you a bit of new information. If you know about sites and companies, but maybe don't know the best, this book sends you to directories and sites. If you have an idea of how to plan ahead but maybe haven't worked it out, this book offers you options for finding what works best for you. Don't Throw Those Coupons Away is a handy companion for even the more experienced couponers.
