Can we create our Prepared Pantry within our existing budget?
Absolutely! We are going to show you how spending a little time preparing can save you a lot of money At the Store
Clients wonder how coupons can save them money when most coupons are usually only 25 or 50 cents off An Item
We love to see those clients after they’ve learned to saved 60 percent or more each time they use our Shopping Strategies
We’ve tried to use coupons before and it never seemed worth the effort!
Let us show you how to make it Worth the Effort!
Your Number One tool will be the Sunday Paper
Contact your local newspaper’s circulation department to see if they offer the Sunday paper only as a Multiple Subscription
The Sunday paper contains, on average, over $60 worth of manufacturer’s coupons Each Week
These coupons, when used in conjunction with weekly sales, will help build your prepared pantry Quickly & Economically
Contact your neighbors, friends or nearby family to get additional sets of Coupons and Ads
You can still build your Prepared Pantry quickly & economically with only one set of Coupons and Ads
Once you acquire your coupons & ads, it’s time to Get to Work
Step 1: Sorting
Step 2: Ripping, Stacking & Clipping
Ripping & Stacking Makes • “Clipping” Coupons Fast: • 1. Start with one set of matching coupons • Tip: Make sure there are no coupons in the “spine” • 2.Rip each set of coupons down the spine • Make piles of each page of coupons • Clip each pile of matching coupons • Tip: You are clipping multiple coupons at a time!
