Day 1

Time: 2 hrs
Money: 0

My very first day of Couponing! So I started my venture on www.pinchingyourpennies.com (also known as "PYP") The brain-child of the Utah Couponers, I held my breath and dove into the forums. Word of warning, do not go here until you have LOTS of time:) I spent 2 hours reading every post for "Newbies". There were quite a few, with multiple themes repeated, and to save YOU the time I will list the most important points I was able to boil down. This is going to be a piece of cake people, we CAN do this! Here is my To-Do list from what I learned today:

1)Call and get Mom and Sister on board! "We'll all....go down....together"; Misery loves company? What I mean to say is: The more the merrier, right?

2) Subscribe to 2 newspapers. No matter how big your family is, I gathered to start with 2 and adjust as you see fit later on.

3) Gather supplies: 1 file box (to hold either hanging files, or manila file folders), 1 binder (with zipper, baseball-card holder pages, pocket and preferrably with a shoulder strap)

Game on girls, I'll hit this list tomorrow!
