Brag Spot time.....

Well, it's been one year that I have been doing "coupons" and saving a bunch of cash. I can't even begin to explain the benefits that my family, my friends and even complete strangers have experienced in just one year. I wanted to share these pictures with you because this is an example of what being a dedicated couponer can do for you and your pantry. This is my friend Karen's pantry.... stocked full, and her freezer... packed! If you could have seen her fridge before she became really committed to couponing, you would be shocked... even more shocked at the change from empty to full.

So how has couponing changed your life?? What does your stockpile look like??
