If you're here after watching KSDK's Frugal Friday, welcome.
It is possible to save a ton of money using coupons. I feed a family of three (one is a teenage boy) plus the dog, purchase all of our personal hygiene, cleaning and laundry supplies for about $40 per week. It isn't like we live on beans and rice, although I wouldn't be called a foodie by any means. You can check how I turn what I've purchased into dinner each night at Menu Plan Monday.
Poke around Coupon STL a bit, and make sure to ask questions. I've got the most helpful and friendly readers ever. If I don't have an answer for you, they will.
A couple of things you can do today to get you on your path to saving.
- Enter giveaway to win (2) tickets to see Grossology at the Science Center
- Print a coupon and pick up Duncan Hines Brownies at Schnucks for $.50
Just saw stlmommy welcoming KSDK viewers and was thinking that you should get in on the action too as your blog helps me to save so much money!

Jeri - Congrats! I'm glad to see your great blog getting well desrved attention!!
ReplyDeleteIt's about time you got noticed on the news. I like following your site so much better than the other big site in St. Louis because I'm tired of all her cutting in pasting instead of trying to find some deals of her own too. Anyone can just copy. Thank you for all your hard work.
ReplyDeleteYes, thank you!! (And I love how you help the little guys too - I can vouch for that!) It's so easy to find stuff on your site.
ReplyDeleteI was soooo excited to see Jeris' website on KSDK. She is the greatest and does so much to help us couponers. Congrats Jeri and keep up the awesome job!
ReplyDeleteYAYS!! That was FAB! I'm with Kim, much better than the 'cut and paster' chic, who rarely ever gives credit to where she gets her deals and stuff and info, shameful. You help us with our local stores so much! I always send my readers over here for the matchups (and other stuff too, lol), there's no way I could ever put them together as thorough as you do!
ReplyDeleteHi All - Thanks for the kind words!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea KSDK was going to feature my site this morning on Frugal Friday. I didn't even see it myself. I'm glad they put video online.
OMG Jeri,
ReplyDeleteI am not to TVish and missed it, so I am glad you mentioned the online part. I am going to go ck it out. =)
Just watched the clip and congrats. I started couponing a few years ago and find your blog to be the absolute BEST for St. Louis. Thank you for all you do. I dont post many comments but am a loyal follower. You make my life much easier.
ReplyDeleteYEAH! Congratulations Jeri!
ReplyDeleteCongrats! This is my favorite blog. The content and format are exceptional.
ReplyDeleteSigned up for your daily e-mail (cheapphredd@gmail.com)
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting these offers!
Just watched the link. Soooo COOL! I'm so happy that your site has finally been featured on TV! About time that your efforts receive a very special break. Maybe next time, we'll see You on TV too. : )
ReplyDeleteI agree with Kim and Debbie. Your site is so much more useful then the other chick who is all over KPLR 11. I always refer people to your site for the best coupon match ups.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your new found "fame."
Nifty! I missed this on TV but just saw the clip on their website. Glad to see you getting some publicity about all the great things you post!
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Jeri!! :D
Hi All - Thanks for all of the kind comments.
ReplyDeleteI haven't had media attention becuase I haven't pursed them. I have too much of that Iowa attitude in me. "If you build it they will come"
Off topic - If you've never been to Dyersville to see The Field of Dreams, you should try to get there sometime. It's baseball heaven.
Jeri - are you from Iowa? My DH is from Dubuque and we have visited the Field of Dreams - soo cool!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your shout-out! You truly deserve it.
YAY! Congrats Jeri, you deserve it. I've been reading your blog for a few years now. Just wish they had interviewed you too!
ReplyDeleteAndrea - My husband and I are both from Iowa. It was a great place to grow up.
ReplyDeleteCongrats Jeri!
ReplyDeleteQuick question, when you post your deals and I see an "RP" or "SS", what does that mean. I figured RR are "register rewards" but are those automatically applied or do I have to have some kind of rewards card? Also, how do I know if and when my Schnucks does double coupons? Thanks for all your work, can't wait to get started!
ReplyDeleteHi, Dave! In behalf of Ms. Jeri, welcome to CouponSTL. : )
ReplyDeleteRP==Redplum insert in the Sunday paper
SS==Smart Source insert in the Sunday paper
There's a coupon lingo on the right side of this page but it's kind of "off" as of now. Ms. Jeri, fix it please. : )
Unlike CVS, at Wags (short for Walgreens), no need for a card to get the RR (Register Rewards) here in St. Louis. Ms. Jeri, I think you need to repost your "Wags RR/Couponing Guide" or whatever it's called. : )
And on Schnucks, Ms. Jeri has Schnucks coupon policy on every post for Schnucks deals. : )
ReplyDeleteWelcome Dave - I'm glad you asked questions. As you can see my readers here are very helpful. Most of the time they will answer questions before I get a chance too. Thanks, coupon.girl!
ReplyDeleteIf you're in the St Louis area Schnucks doubles to .40 coupon with a limit of 15 per transaction. If you are in another area check the first page of your ad. There coupon policy is at the bottom of the page.
Hi coupon.girl - As you probably know, my oldest is my technical support here. I've been nagging him to find some time to get the sidebar issues fixed, but between class, girlfriend, studying, girlfriend, work, girlfriend, socail life.... Mom and her blog is low on the priority list.
ReplyDeleteBut, good news. I talked to him last night and Minneapolis has 20 + inches of new snow and classes are canceled for today. I have some time scheduled for us to get some things fixed.
I've always felt like it Take a Village to raise a child. I'll tell him - now, readers are nagging too about getting my sidebar fixed :)
