Hi, I just read your article in the american press. I’m a stay home mom with two huge weaknesses: lack of forethought and I’m totally mathematically challenged! Any hope that I could learn to save $$ like you have. I have a ton of diaper coupons but buy store brand at Walmart because it seems cheaper. I never heard about coupons doubling/tripling, WOW! I’m thinking I’m probably missing out of a ton of savings! HELP!
Thank you for any advice you can give! Your article has really gotten me thinking!

Dina,
I am totally with you. I am not a stay at home mom but i do have 3 boys and a huge grocery bill. I can’t get the hang of this coupon thing but I would love to. How do we get started?
