Bonus! By completing these 10 steps then answering the questions below in a reply to this thread, you will be entered to win 1 of 30 AFC tote bags! See details at the bottom of this post.

Learning to coupon takes time so try not to get overwhelmed. It takes everyone more than a day to learn everything about couponing and master AFullCup.com. So take your time with these steps, even if that means one step a day. Before you know it, you’ll know your way around, but it all starts one step at a time.

Step 1 – Check out Hot Deals

The hottest deals on AFC are listed in Hot Deals. If you only have time to check one place, this should be your go-to spot!

Step 2 – Introduction on Welcome Mat

Introduce yourself at the Welcome Mat. Be sure to include which stores you like to shop at so members can help show you around your soon-to-be favorite forums.

Step 3 – Read the Forum Rules

Read the Forum Rules. As a new member the most important forum rules for you to read are:
Coupons

Blog Links

Signature Rules

Then once you get more familiar with AFC please be sure to refer back to the Forum Rules as a whole to learn the rules of couponing trading, becoming a supporting member, and more.

Step 4 – Learn “Couponing” Language

Refer to the AFC Terms & Acronyms list which you can find at the bottom of every page in the AFC Forums. As you now begin to explore AFullCup.com you may come across terms and acronyms you are unfamiliar with. It is best to keep a tab or window open with this list right there so as you read through the forum you can quickly refer to the list. Soon enough you’ll rely less on the list and understand the “couponing language” on your own.

Step 5 – Learn Savvy Couponing for Beginners

Now that you know the rules and terms, you’re ready to learn more about couponing! Visit Couponing 101 to get started. Be sure to read Savvy Couponing for Beginners and Types of Coupons 101.

HTH means "Hope That Helps"....something I use a lot but never thought to abbreviate!
One of today's deals is if you buy 10 Kellogg's cereals, you can get $10 in gas money. Sounds great. I'm gonna check it out
I honestly don't remember how I found you. I surf a lot and go from link to link on other sites, so I'm guessing I found you from some coupon site I was checking out.
