I must say that I am in genuine SHOCK at all the interest you ladies have in my couponing. But I must say that it makes my heart smile that so many of you are interested in couponing and in saving money for yourselves & your families.

Because their is such an interest I will be posting coupon hauls, tips, breakdowns and general coupon talk at least once every 2 weeks here on the blog to help the newbies out. I don't want this to turn into a coupon blog so I will be regulating the frequency of the post to that schedule.However if there is an AMAZING deal that I feel like all of my Pretty Girls need to know about ASAP ill post that here also. If you are looking for more daily post couponing or otherwise as always please follow my instagram HERE

Alrightly ladies....and gents? Lol

It's time for part two of The Pretty Girls Guide To Couponing for newbies! First off for all those reading welcome to my blog if this is your first time here and for all the couponing newbies welcome to the couponing family!! 

If you have not read my previous post on couponing you can check it out HERE. On that post I went over all the basics of couponing that I have learned thus far. I talk about why couponing is a good option, where you can find coupons, spotting deals, stacking coupons ect.

That post contains ALOT of great information for newbies to study and get familiar with. I put that post together to try and help other new couponers (like myself) understand the coupon game in laments term. Because trust me when I tried to keep up with all the couponing lingo and learn from the pros I was confused to say the least lol.

 This post is more of a quick tip guide to refer back to from time to time to help when your collecting your coupons, checking deals learning the coupon game and making your purchases.

Below you will find my top 15 tips that will help you be successful newbie couponer ☺️

If your following me on Instagram I'm sure you have seen all of my couponing escapades this past week. That's right couponing! Not all couponers are like the crazy women on TLC with bunkers full of crap they may never use.... Some couponers are just your average everyday bloggers that like to save their hard earned coins.

But how did I get started you ask?

New rule any day after Thanksgiving is officially Christmas!

Dont argue me =)

Lol ok ok...while it may not ACTUALLY be Christmas it sure starts to feel like it pretty fast. Stores have up their holiday decor, Christmas music is on the radio and the Halmark channel has you covered from the roota to the toota (is that how that saying goes?) with sappy Christmas movies.

Oh and you know I love it. 

The holiday season is pretty much like my drug of choice, I get jittery just thinking about it and what really tickles my fancy most of all you ask?

Gift giving-- I'm a pro at it, im talkin about expert level gift giver. I take the time to think about what the person needs, what they want and what they will like all before buying just to make sure I get it right.

Now, I know everyone isn't great at coming up with gift ideas and that most people wind up running around at the last moment looking for anything will do.

So to help you avoid that this year and get you on your shopping grind early I pulled together a list of ___ of my favorite things by catagory that will make the perfect gifts for all your special someones this holiday season!

Thrifting be havin me like...

 

I have to admit its been forever since i've spent more than a few minuets in Target picking up the essentials. 

Lately I've been on the go so much that my usual clearance shopping and couponing have pretty much gone out the window, but yesterday as I strolled down the aisle to get water a beautiful red clearance sticker caught my eye.

It was a Nate Berkus vase (JACKPOT) and we all know that one red sticker leads to another. The next thing I knew I had a cart full of home decor clearance and just like that, I was back on the clearance hunting bandwagon!

Nothing says Summer time like spending time outdoors. 

Just imagine it. 

Feet up, breeze blowing, sipping on a sangria with not a care in the world =)

 That was me two days ago on my brand new patio set from Target.

I was able to furnish my while patio for a smooth $80.00 and I'm going to show you how to do the same thing!!

Do you know what your Bae wants for Valentine's Day?


Teddy bears are cute and flowers are nice...but what is she really looking forward to?

I promise you the answer is not in your pants...but it is on this blog!

While most people are slaving over hot stoves to produce Academy Award winning Thanksgiving productions, Shop-A-Holics like me are making lists and checking them twice in preparation for the biggest shopping day (or days) of the year.

We are in full panic mode people!!

 Count down to Black Friday is upon us and true to this shoppers know that scarfing down pounds and pounds of turkey is the quickest way to be tapped out when its time to run for those deals. So while your getting stufffffed I'm getting prepped. Well thats how I used to be, this year I'm taking it easy and thinking more about "us".

In light of recent events and movements like Black Lives Matter...i've become more aware of just how important it is to stand together as a community and a culture. So before you lace up those Nikes for go time, take a second to check out these Black Friday deals from AMAZING black owned businesses and invest some black dollars back into the community!

 Support black owned business that will surely support you...before some of those other companies.
