How long have you been couponing? I've mostly been an observer while my daughter's been doing this for over a year. She clues me in on the best deals but I want to do more.

Favorite Coupon of all time: coupons.com printable $1 off any cheese. we eat alot of cheese LOL

What I hope to get from AFC: more info and help in preparation for shopping trips. I have problems with anxiety and don't deal well with surprises, so being really prepared is a must.

I would like to have an experienced AFCer/couponer contact me to show me around the site (Yes/No): No, already have one. My DD26

Hobbies/Interests: Reading, sewing, playing games, finding great things for my 2 special needs kids
