Super-Couponing with Jill Cataldo

On Saturday October 16, Fountaindale Public Library was pleased to welcome Jill Cataldo! What an amazing and informative presentation!  I was lucky enough to be in the audience and I can tell you I learned some useful tips to save hundreds on my family’s grocery bills – and the tips didn’t just apply to money spent on a food budget.

“You might be wondering, ‘Is it worth becoming a coupon shopper?’

The real question is… why wouldn’t you want to shop with coupons?

In life, we continually insist on the best prices for major purchases. We seek out the lowest price when buying a new car, booking the cheapest airfare, or finding the best deal on a new television. And yet, where groceries are concerned, most people don’t even give a second thought to what they’re paying for them. They go to the store and accept $150-$200 weekly grocery bills as part of life.

But groceries comprise one of the largest parts of our entire household budgets! If you knew you could easily cut that grocery bill by half or better, still buying the groceries and products you want and need, why wouldn’t you? With my system, coupon shoppers are happily spending a small amount of time each week, about a half-hour to an hour, to reduce their grocery bills by 30%, 50%, 75% or more.”  Excerpt taken from Jill Cataldo’s Super-Couponing web page.

Jill’s site is set up to help newbies and pros alike and has a getting started guide, coupon center for printing online coupons, and a coupon look-up guide that helps you easily locate coupons from the inserts that come in the Sunday paper. You can also check out Jill’s blog for her Deals of the Week posts, break downs of costs on ACTUAL shopping trips, more helpful tips, and the occasional give away.
