Coupon Class Success!
The coupon class at Seymour Johnson AFB last night was a wonderful success! I admit I was a nervous wreck up until the moment it started. I had a lot of encouragement though which really helped and I know there were a lot of prayers going up for this class as well.
Twenty-one women showed up to learn about couponing. These women were from all walks of life not just military spouses and they were all focused on how to provide for their families better by using coupons.I must say they were a loud bunch, but that is to be expected when you have a large group of women together in one room. I know they all left knowing a little bit more about how to save money with coupons then when they came.
Topics covered were Hoarding vs. Stock piling, Giving and Donating which is really needed right now, Catalinas, Stacking, Doubling, Sorting and Binders, Menu Planning, Budgeting and sticking to it, Store Coupon Policies, Ms Melissa's Extreme couponing trip and where to find your resources. Women brought coupons to share so there was a lot of sorting and clipping going on as people found coupons to fit their individual needs. The founder of our very own Seymour Johnson Coupon Club came providing us with a great overseas coupon resource if you have expired coupons please get them to her via facebook. We had snacks and door prizes as well as child care for those who needed it. I was also able to get a coupon code for the only local news paper in our area that carries coupons for those who needed it as well.
The class was a lot of fun and I can not wait to do it again. If you did not get the chance to attend please consider signing up for the next one if you are in my area. I will write individual notes on the different topics covered to share with everyone over the next week or so. Please be patient my house is busy so it may take a little while. God bless and please share the coupon knowledge with as many people as you can there are more then enough coupons to go around.
