The first episode premieres 12/29 @ 8:00 pm Central Time on the TLC channel.  We are NOT hoarders or shopaholics here at Family Frugal Fun, but this should be fun to watch.  We like to save money so we can have more fun with our families and live the best life we were meant to live.

Coupons & Frugal Talk

By Leave a Comment

We’re nearing the end of the month and you know what that means.  You need to go through coupons.com and print out any coupons that you know you will use.  Sometimes the coupons make it to the next month and sometimes they are gone by the 1st.

What can we expect into the new year?  Expect to see sales on exercise equipments, dieting books and low calorie/low fat foods.  February will bring mega candy sales again and once we near the spring you’ll see fish hit a rock bottom low going into the season of Lent before Easter.  That would be a good time to stock up.

In a few more days Christmas products will be marked down 75% – that is when I’d buy.  I always pick up at least 1 new item for next year and depending on the sales I find, it may be several items.  Don’t be shy about picking up the phone and asking if your local Walmart or Target etc has marked their items down to 75% yet.  Whatever you do, don’t go out of your way for a deal!  The price of gas is too high to do that.

If you readers that are new to Family Frugal Fun are still confused think about attending a couponing seminar or send a message to me and I can always make it the topic of my next video. Keep couponing! My goal is to help you live a better life having more fun because you’ll have some extra money to spend once you cut your grocery and toiletries budget.  If you have a charity in need, I still have many, many items to donate.  Send an e-mail – my house is too small to hoard!
