Do you coupon? Or want to?

Well I was kinda hesitant at first because I thought it would take too much time to figure out the deals, but by following some blogs they do all the work for me. They tell me what coupons to use, give me links to them, where to use at etc. I just print off some coupons, make a list and go. I have actually saved quite a bit of money. For the past 2 weeks I saved about 40% at the grocery store. I just started this but I think I can save $ by couponing without it taking forever.

My favorite coupon blogs are
thekrazycouponlady.com
and
moneysavingmom.com

The krazy coupon lady has a great page of ALL the online coupons with links to them

She has some great posts called "10 days to become a crazy coupon lady" which is very helpful.
