I really want to learn how to save more money so I can quit qork and stay home with my 6 month old! ANy help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!!!

Welcome to AFC. I know you can get confused really easy around here. But don't give up. The way I did it is just start reading. Start at the basics and go from there. Pull up the forms and start there and keep going.

It will take sometime to get through all the info. I still find things on this site and have been here for months.

Take your time and always ask question someone will be here to help.

I lived in Ferndale for 10 years! Welcome to the site. You'll get the hang of it. Just start saving all of the coupons you can find, including the ones on the internet. One day soon, the items will go on sale SOMEWHERE (we'll let you know where), and then the coupons will really come in handy! Good luck!

the easiest way i learned to get around and be able to navagate is: when i log in i check the box below log in to "remember me" then, hit the button log in. When i get to the home page i then go to NEW POSTS and once that opens, I BOOKMARK that page. (right click on a blank area on that page and choose create shortcut) that will place an ICON on your desktop and so you will only have to click on that ICON to get into AFC You may get this message once you get there "vBulletin Message

Welcome to AFC.

I lived in Bellingham, Lynden, and Everson. Still have family there, and DH is there all the time, for work, truck driver out of deming.

Take your time, and read the post of the stores that you shop. Ask questions, we are all here to help each other. Don't try to figure it all out at once, you might get overwhelmed.

We're glad you joined us!

When I first started I concentrated just on the store forums that I shopped at. Then I branched out from there. I had already been couponing but there was so much to learn and organizing myself was hard at first. Now I keep a notebook and pen next to my computer. If I read about a good deal I make a note of the specifics in my notebook. Then when I'm going to that store, I have the details already and can just grab it and go!

Hi,
Welcome to AFC!! Please make yourself comfy and jump right in.

Please allow me to point out a few things that you might find helpful...

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 navigate AFC, you can click "Forum", (this is found at the top of the page, on the left hand side). When you click there you will be taken to a new page that will give you a list of all the different forums AFC has to offer. Click any forum topic and it'll take you there.

To see all the new chatter that is coming in for all the forums, you can click "New Post" (this is found at the top of the page, on the right hand side). When you click this a new page will open and it will show all the newest threads for the forums as they are submitted.


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