I am new here and really need to pinch some pennies.

Hi

Welcome to AFC.. I know that you will love it here...

Thanks. I am a bit lost...what should I focus on first? Cutting coupon from the paper?

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

Some ideas that might help you get started..

~Find something that you can keep your Q's (coupons) in. Several people use a notebook binder, and then fill it with baseball card inserts. They use dividers to split their Q's into different sections. (I personally do this) Other options are using a photo album, a fan file folder, really just about anything you feel will help you stay organized.

~Clip you Q's and sort them into different sections (ex: cleaning supplies, freezer items, personal care items, etc.) I do this and then I have them placed in the order I walk through my store. It's a good idea to put them in an order that makes sense to you, so you can grab your Q's without any effort when your shopping.

Also, down at the very bottom of this page you will find "Acronyms and Terms Used Here". If at any time you see abbreviations or terms you do not understand, you can click that (as it will be on every page you use) and you'll be able find a meaning behind the terminology used.

HTH (hope that helps).

you have come to the right place - we are all pinching pennies

Join a Coupon train to swap coupons with other members & to save more

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
