“Have you ever received a standing ovation at the cash register? I have.” — Jamie Chase
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the world of coupons — and guilty that you can’t seem to nail the “system” to save money — kick back with Jamie Chase, couponing teacher and savvy shopper whom Brian Williams of NBC’s Nightly News dubbed “the Master.”
The system is simple: there’s no chasing all over town on a single shopping trip; no stockpiling of items you don’t need; no weekly tracking of item prices, driving you to buy what you don’t need simply because there’s a sale.
Chase instructs readers on where to find coupons, how to use them, where to get the most bang for your buck, and how to start thinking like a couponer every time you make a purchase. Sound too easy?
