You want even numbers because you can use two coupons on buy-one-get-one deals. 2) Clip and organize your coupons by using a box, a binder or an according style coupon holder. 3) Wait for a sale and then pounce!!

Many teachers use their own resources or money to cover classroom needs. This idea came to me from my daughter’s preschool teacher many years ago. For example, a few years ago, a second grade teacher was a big Green Bay Packers fan, so we went to Wegmans where they have M&M dispensers in every color imaginable.

Normally I don't shop at more than one store per week, but I checked out the bread/bakery outlet near my daughter's school and I was very pleased. Aside from the occasional sale, I cringed every time I bought them too. I found the non-HFCS loaves of 100% whole wheat bread marked at $1.50. That is about $2.50 less than my grocery store.
