Hi!! Welcome to AFC! You're going to love it here! My best advice is to read read read!! You can learn so much! Yes, you will spend quite a bit of time here! Take that time and do it! If you factor in how much money you're going to save by learning and reading on here than you are actually going to paid a lot of money for the time you spend here!

I'll share with you what was shared with me when I first joined! Thanks to "oldtingrl" !

Your Username ~ when you click it..it'll take you to your personal profile page.

Settings ~ when you click this..it'll take you to the page where you're thank you's and reps are listed. It also gives you access to your control panel, networking, settings & options, private messages, subscribed threads, moderation, miscellaneous, your notepad, and blog.

Inbox ~ this takes you to your Private Message page (this is basically the AFC version of in-house email).

Update (this only appears when you have a new message in your Inbox or on your profile page) ~ it will have a number next to it too. This will allow you see how many messages you have.

Logout ~ pretty obvious what this one does.

At the bottom of every page, on the left hand side you will find "Acronyms and Terms used here". If you see a term or abbreviation you are not sure about, you can click that and it will help you find what you need to know.

To see all the new chatter that is coming in for all the forums, you can click "Forum" (this is found at the top of the page, on the left-hand side). When you click this, a little box will scroll down and give you a little list of items to choose from. Click "New Posts" and it will show all the newest threads for the forums as they are submitted.

Giving/Receiving "Thanks" or "Rep" is a fun feature here at AFC. If you see a post that has inspired you, helped you, or given you a moment of pause , you can click the "Thanks" button (located at the bottom of each post; it's blue with a little gold arrow picture) this will insert your username at the bottom of their post. This lets them know you appreciate their post. OR If you would like, you can click the "Rep" button (located at the bottom of each post; it's blue with a + sign picture). When clicking this you're given the opportunity to leave a small comment, telling the poster what you appreciate. They're both a way to show your appreciation, but you can only do one or the other..not both. So, when you see someone's username listed under your post..you'll know you've been "Thank'd" and your post is much appreciated.

If you have any questions, just holler. We're so glad you're here.

Hello and Welcome to AFC

[bigshirley]

Welcome to AFC!!

You'll find plenty of coupon savy folks eager to share all the tricks of the trade!

We are SO glad to have YOU!!!

Quick tip - plan meals out ahead of time for the entire week (or month if you're good). Try to plan your meals around the sales for that week. Have a pre-made shopping list of your staples (so you know what to always get when on sale), then just add your items for that week, before heading to the store. This will save you time and MONEY!!
