| couponing class
I am so excited! A group of ladies I know asked me to teach them basic CVS couponing. We meet Saturday morning for about an hour and half. I've written a hand out. I asked my manager--he gave me EC applications and cards for each lady to have and advance copies of the Feb book and the 02/01 ad for each lady. Excited, excited, excited! |

Awesome! If someone asked me, I would probably fall over dead of shock. We have 5 or 6 CVS stores that I know of where I am, so there isn't too much competition here. Just at the store that is 24hrs!

I teach a class but not in my neighborhood LOL They asked me to be on the news though and show people how to do this... and I declined... the person they have on there now saves "$30" and spends "$20"... I am LMAO but more power to her... I'd hate to show my town how to do it and then have to fight to get there first to get the deals!

I worked for a month doing some seasonal work. I spoke to them about my obsession--ummm hobby--of couponing. Before the end of the week they were calling me from the grocery store so excited about their deals--there is a new cvs opening close to their house. They asked me to please teach them before the store opens--LOL--I said ok as long as they didn't teach anyone else!!--

i've found that a lot of people don't care to learn. I guess it's too time consuming for them.

| That and some say they want to learn, but then don't take your advice to heart. My friends and family have been asking for help since I really started couponing. Last night a friend asked me to go to Kroger with her to help with shopping. I brought my binder and we took a look at her list of needs, and I made a gameplan. In the end she only bought what she wanted and did a lot of impulse buying. I even tried to argue with her about buying eggs, b/c she had a coupon for some really expensive eggs and there were some that were way cheaper w/o coupon. She felt that if she bought the expensive ones w/ coupon that it was a better deal. In the end she walked out of there with 3 bags and spent $56! Oh well. I tried.
__________________ We have cut our grocery costs by ~50% and have way more food and toiletries since starting to coupon. I am aiming to cut it in half again! |

Katt -- My twin sister does that same thing or when we are shopping she will turn to me and ask me if i have a coupon for that item-- in way i feel like ok i will help her cause she gives me her inserts for the weekend but in other ways I think I did all the work on figuring out the deals with the coupons I also have been requested to start a coupon group but I think I want to send out a questionare about when to get together and what they would like to learn from this group. I am still not to sure how to start this whole thing. Do any of you who start groups meet once a month ,twice a month or what? I am so lost here. |

I was asked to teach a class for the wives of the students at the school my husband attends. I think it is being scheduled for sometime next month. I am asked all the time by friends and family and when I start to explain they want to correct me and tell me how it isn't possible (or legal) to get stuff for cheap or free. Or they get this glazed look over their eyes and you know they didn't know you actually had to work to save money. Good luck with your class! |

I taught a class too. I started with a womens group at my church. Out of about 15 ladies only 2 really became couponeers. They are on AFC too cause, of course, this is a big part of my class. It is amazing how you can lead a horse to water but you can't mke them drink! I show anyone who wants to learn that I am close to, like neighbors and church 'family' but I like the idea of teaching a class for pay. We have a coupon 'guru' in oneof the newspapers I get and it is funny to hear her savings...not all that.

I've taught hundreds of classes to thousands of students. At first, I was worried about my personal couponing, but a very small percentage actually go into 'hardcore couponing'. And, all of our stores know who I am and what I do, and order plenty of extra stock to go around. It's actually easier to find the stuff now!

I have taken the time to show several member of my family and friends how to use their coupons. Most of them seem to think it is easier to give me their coupons and ask me to look for things for them - backfired on me there!

| That's what mine wants me to do. Uh, sorry, but I don't have time to shop for you. I might call them but they don't even keep their coupons. It is SOOO frustrating!

My family does the same thing to me too, ladies! But I don't mind, because I send rebates to their house So really... they are buying the groceries from me with rebate money. In all seriousness, I like to be able to help people out. I give my Grandma a few bags of groceries every couple of weeks & when my husbands uncle lost his income, I was able to give him a whole lot of food. I recently taught a friend how to coupon & she has really taken to it. It's exciting to see someone get as excited as you are about couponing. But I agree, that most people won't take the time to do it. I don't really know why, because all you have to do is come to AFC & we'll tell you where to get the deals. All they have to do is find the q's! I've been considering teaching a class too, because I always find myself giving each individual person a complete lesson & it takes alot of time!
