How to Extreme Coupon Where I live!!!
I always get asked is is possible to Extreme Coupon in Washington? Kansas? California? “…Fill in the blank” Yes it is possible to Extreme Coupon ANYWHERE! Just keep in mind Extreme Couponing does not mean that you go out and try and buy thousands of dollars of stuff for FREE! That is totally not my belief…just because you see me do it on tv, doesn’t mean that is how I normally shop or how I believe in couponing!
I do NOT do crazy large trips like you see on the show! I I also do not ALWAYS save 100%! I try of course to save as much as possible…but I do occasionally have to spend money (sad I know). I have always maintained a $50 a week budget for our family of 5 (almost 6). However, as my stockpile has grown I have found that many times I hardly spend $100 a month!!!
Now here is the kicker…I have always couponed in Washington (Seattle area)…but we just moved to Kansas and am now learning all new stores! I have to admit I feel like a newbie couponer having to learn the stores policies and learn how to maintain my extreme savings! But believe you-me…I will be successful! I will learn how to EXTREME COUPON ANYWHERE!!!!
So now I bid you all good luck and hope that you give it a try! Remember Extreme Couponing isn’t about how big your haul is or achieving 100% savings it’s about being willing to save money! My definition of extreme couponing is being willing to take the time to get your coupons, clip them and save money (in any percentage!)
God Bless you all and feel free to ask any questions you may have…I am here to help!

Albertsons is great for grocery savings!!! They have Twice the Value coupons that come in the Sunday paper (usually twice a month) those coupons will double the value of a coupon up to $1.00!!! I also LOVE shopping at Target, Walgreens and Rite Aid…oh and Safeway is pretty awesome too….really you have a GREAT location for couponing!!! I miss couponing in Lynnwood more than I you could ever know!!!

Awesome feedback 🙂 any possible tips on where to get coupons in this area? All the newspaper collection bins have tiny openings. Also any chance that Fred Meyer might be a good one too? I’m so thrilled you commented back! I have lots of questions 🙂
