it was a short bit..but most of oprah's are..but truly, could you see someone explaining all the ins & outs, binders, coupon sources, rebates, cvs ecb's, etc..all in one fell swoop..you'd leave people dazed and confused...this way if people want to know they can take a look see, practice, ask questions along the way..and hopefully, with enough of us experienced ones we can get the point across..they'll experience some good shops and have an "aha" moment..

Hi Lfwh,
I am laughing soooooooooooo hard over your post, because I had this mental picture of Oprah never having had to spend much money because of rolling ECB'S at CVS!!

I'm here because of that five minute segment on Oprah.
This time I think our family is really going to make the coupon change. I asked my husband to sit down and watch with me he was really impressed with that since in our family he is the cook and the main grocery man. He was online the second the show was over at our home.

I tend to be the organized one so I think together we really going to make some head way. Without the system in place we already saved $25 on this weeks groceries. I cant wait to learn myself and teach my kids this system.
We just started the high-school years with our oldest a boy who will eat us out of our house and home if we don't watch out.

If it works like I plan our kids wont have to eat only Ramen noodles during the college years. (LOL)

Oprah is how I ended up here! lol I usually frequent a twin parent forum that has been featured on there and a lot of people showed up.

I love this idea of saving money forum though! I really need to start!

I just happened to turn on Oprah, I don't usually watch...I'm glad I did! I'm new to coupon mom and I've been addicted for two days now researching and printing coupons. I've even got a few ppl in my office doing it

I'm a mom of two babies so I need to save whenever I can. Does anyone know if Schnucks, Diebergs, or Wallmart in the St. Charles County area have grocery cards I can score some savings with?
Thank you,

I don't know how it is in other states, but Walmart here in S Fla. frowns on giving more then a few coupons. I had a bad time about it there once.
