I've always loved a bargain. I'm assuming most here at MyCoupons do too. I think for me it started as a child, the little comments I would hear from my grandfather or family friends talking about coupons. Let me tell you about two vivid memories I have that involve saving money and coupons. First at about age 5 or 6, I remember my grandfather looking out the living room window of his home across the street to the church parking lot and saying "there lays a dime." I thought wow, Papaw's...

Many probably have read posts where I've mentioned I'm going through a divorce. Today I wanted to share some of my personal experiences with this journey. Let me share a few basics first.

Tomorrow is my youngest daughter's birthday. She'll be 7.

So this morning, we head off to the madhouse....

I think deep down it was just the thought of losing an animal again that I couldn't stand. But about 3 or 4 months ago, I bought...

I live in a rather rural area. I've lived here for more than 9 years. I've seen cats, dogs, skunks, squirrels, rabbits, pigs, cows, chickens, peacocks and yes deer. And for some reason each time my daughters and I see a deer, we squeal with delight. We point, almost break our necks to look for as long as we can. Why these creatures excite us so is beyond me. Of course they are pretty and graceful as they bounce through fields. But we've seen hundreds of them now and yet each sighting makes...
