Everyone is looking for ways to save money.  That is why I decided to blog about how I can stretch a dollar.  The goal of my blog, www.thecoupontrainer.com, is to help people find bargains, get items for free, and stretch the hard-earned money they make.  And, all of the information on my blog is absolutely FREE!

Through smart shopping and using coupon match-ups with existing sales, I spend $75 on average a week on groceries for my family of 4.  I find all the best deals through the internet and local ads.  Throughout the week, I post local grocery deals along with nation-wide deals on my blog.  I also give tips on how to combine coupons with those local deals and suggest where to buy things that everyone needs.

The money that is saved enables me to stay at home with my 2 year old son and 6-month-old daughter and allows me to support local charities by donating some of my bargains to food banks, churches, and other charitable organizations.

Not only do I list grocery store deals, I also tell you how to get many FREE items from stores such as Wal-Mart, Walgreens, and CVS with coupon match ups.  You just have to know the coupon tricks to do it!

What I will teach you on my blog:
* I will help you change the way you think about grocery shopping
* I will show you where to find more coupons.
* I will teach you how to use coupons effectively

What I will NOT teach you on my blog:
* I will NOT show you how to clear shelves
* I will NOT teach you how to hoard products
* I will NOT reveal the tricks of coupon misuse

When I go shopping and watch the numbers drop with each beep of a coupon, it is the result of information and the experience I’ve gained and it has become a learned skill.  TheCouponTrainer.com is a blog that will teach you this skill.  I try to focus on local deals in Central, IL, focusing on stores in the Bloomington/Normal areas.

TheCouponTrainer.com is a friendly, fun and informative place for couponers.  So, come take a look and join the fun!  The more you learn….the more you save!
