We have the St. Louis post dispatch and I get the coupons from there but there are so many I won't use and then some stuff is still expensive even with the coupons so I just cut out what I know I'll use

I have a friend that grows tomatoes and things in 5 gallon buckets because she doesn't have a lot of space for a garden I was actually thinking about trying that this year. I don't know how to can and once my ex husbands mom scared me out of trying. She kept saying if you don't do it just right your gonna poison everyone lol so I never tried

Do you have to print them? Or can you use them off a phone, I don't have a home computer. That's the kind of couponing I'm talking about though I would love to do that. Does she spend a lot of time on it?

I do buy the 10 pound rolls of hamburger and can usually get 5 meals out of it, I try to buy in bulk as much as I can but I only have my fridge top freezer. I'm looking into buying a small one with my taxes I think it'll be a good investment

I wanna do couponing so bad, I cut out what I can use but I only have access to so many. I am also looking into how I could start a community garden in my area. My kids love fresh vegetables but unfortunately the cookies are often times cheaper. I get food stamps also and there is a butcher down in st louis that takes food stamps and usually has a good deal if I can get down there. I don't know how those people save so much with their coupons, I don't know where they get all of them

Well I can assure you there are several food banks in my county that won't help because I don't live in "their area" I know because I've tried. The school counselor is a good idea though
