Midnight Blog

I should be cleaning. And I will. MAJOR yard sale tomorrow at 485 N. State Street. So much to do. I want opinions if anyone is willing to share them. Everyone has seen the TLC show Extreme Couponing. And we have all noticed the multitude of bandwagon blogs out there offering FREE stuff everywhere. Obviously nothing is free. But it can be drastically reduced by utilizing certain tactics and rewards. I am going to ask a couple questions. If you are so inclined, please feel free to answer honestly.

1: I do not advertise myself as an Extreme couponer. Hopefully just as a person who wants to help change the way people shop to maximize their weekly budget. Do people want to know how to get massive amounts of things like pasta, or ketchup for little money? Or do they just want to know how to lessen their weekly bill, and even get better stuff for less money?

2: Do you want to know about free community events?

3: Prioritize what constitutes the biggest portion of your weekly spending.

A; Food- B; Personal products- C; Pet care- D; Home care (lawn, paint, cleaners etc...)- D; Vitamin- E; Organic items- F; Entertainment
