    My favorite way to save is using a coupon on something that is on clearance! I just used a $1 off coupon on a 2-pack of men's deodorant that was normally $4.49 on clearance for $2.00 So, I got 2 for .50 each! Yay!

    Some of the ways I save money are: shopping at yard sales and thrift stores for clothes and home goods, getting coffee at tjmaxx or aldi's, making my own bread out of grains I buy in bulk, couponing at CVS :)

    I have this thing where if isn't at least 50% off, I don't like to buy it unless I REALLY have to. So my son didn't get his new school jeans until this week, when the ones that fit him the best were half off. (I happen to love Target clearance too, but that's a little harder to predict, so 50% sales for staples are easiest.) And I shop the thrift stores for both kids, too. Oh - and books. We LOVE to read, but I can't bring myself to pay full price for a new children's book. :-/ I wait for the library fundraiser sales and snap em up at 25 cents! (There are a few exceptions to the book rule, if I think it will get one of the kids really excited about reading. But still... full price is tough. And forget about full price books for me! Book sale and library, definitely!)

    Use cupons on whatever you can, try getting cupons from sites that reward you for using them. Don't pay full rice for an item unless you really really have to chances are the price will get marked down.

    I am a bargain finder whether in a grocery store or in any other type. During the summer we went to Kohl's and we spent 150 but according to the receipt between coupons and sale items we saved over 500 dollars. My daughter shops at Plato's closet and I use coupons as well. I find those coupons on the internet, newspaper, magazines, and through product websites.

    Ooooh...that's a tough one for me. I am the most frugal person in the universe, so I am tempted to say "everything I do saves money", but I know that you want soemthing specific. The most important thing that I do to save money is to "do without". I can't stand spending anything, and won't do it unless it is really, really necessary.

    I use coupons for everything! I try to match them up with the store sales to get double the benefit. My local grocery store also doubles any coupon with a face value under $1 and about every other month they will double any $1 manufacturers coupon. Thats when i get the best deals!

    I use coupons when they are doubled or tripled and also look for store sales.

    Like just about everyone else, I'm a HUGE couponer! I travel w/a tote full of coupon magazines and my organizer. One of my other favorite ways to save is to save scraps of veggies and meats while I'm cooking to the freezer and later make soup! I rarely throw anything out. I keep it moving it a timely way.
