Who wouldn't want to save 60-75% on their groceries? - By Crystal Collins
Meet my friend Dana. Dana saw amazing couponing shows on TV and decided that she wanted to save money just like those other people. So Dana started couponing, and started saving anywhere from 60-75% at the grocery store.
But Dana wasn't happy. Every time she left the store she became more and more discouraged. She just couldn't seem to "get" how those people on TV were doing it. How could she walk out of the store paying pennies or dollars for hundreds of dollars worth of groceries.
Eventually Dana became so discouraged that she just gave up and went back to her regular shopping routines.
Would you like to win a ticket to this workshop? In conjunction with Crystal, we are giving away FIVE tickets to this Thursday's (3-22-12) class! To enter, first, let us know what you'd like to learn at the class by filling out a comment here on the blog, then enter your information in the Rafflecopter form below. Remember to link to your blog comment by right-clicking on the time stamp of your comment, and pasting the URL in the Rafflecopter form, along with a valid email address. FIVE WINNERS WILL BE CHOSEN WEDNESDAY MORNING AT 10 A.M.What's sad about this story is that it is actually true. People everywhere are discouraged because of the unrealistic expectations set by extreme people on TV that somehow manage to feed their families with mustard and toothpaste every week.
This is not realistic couponing. But my ultimate question is: Why in the world would people not be happy with a 60-75% savings??? Most people don't even save 30% at the grocery store! This is a huge success, and definitely not a reason for anyone to quit trying to save money with coupons.
If you're ready to save this kind of money, come join me this week on Thursday for my Grocery Savings Workshop where you will learn realistic grocery couponing, meal planning and strategic shopping! Use coupon code ATLANTA to get half off the price of admission. Register and find out more info about my couponing classes in Atlanta. See below for a chance to WIN a ticket to this awesome workshop!!
