ESM & BB Coupon Classes- You Get What You Pay For!

I’ve been to the class- well, the BB class. I’ve also been to a “FREE” class. Your class is so detailed- not like others. I know I’m doing as well- because it was so detailed- and because you gave out your number and I called you twice!! You even let us come shopping with you once! Talk about over and above- Your class was so well worth the money!!! God has really put this on your heart to help families! You could have been selfish and kept this to yourself and I would have been none the wiser- and I’m glad you didn’t! Thank you for the handouts at the class- when I started I kept referring back to them!! (or you would have had more calls!!) It is a lot of info to take in! You are awesome! I thank you every time I open my full pantry!! No more out to dinner at the last minute because nothing is here! and no more running in Walmart for one (10) things! You are saving us so much money! I wanted you to know- You really are helping families so much- all my friends that took the class with me- feel the same way- we are so excited to get a good coupon or deal!! The class was Awesome!! Thanks! -Kyla

Hey Shannon, I took the class last Saturday morning and it was worth every penny. I had read the blogs and figured out some on my own but once I took your class it was like the veil was lifted. I can now go back to the blog for a reference and understand clearly what I am reading now. So, I loved the class. I have paid for the class 100 time over with the saving that I have already gotten. I wrote on your Fb that I saved $76 dollars on my second trip after the class and saved $50 before the class. Thanks for all that ya’ll do! -Helen

Shannon and Aubrey,
I was at the class you taught at Moffett Road Baptist last Monday night, and just wanted to let you know how much I’ve appreciated all the information that you taught. I’ve been clipping coupons since last Christmas, but I feel like I’ve just now started “couponing”!! It’s like a whole other league out there! My friend Leslie and I drove over to Publix for the very first time on Saturday. We were there when the store opened, and had such a nice experience. Chris was even there bagging our groceries. But best of all, I spent $36 and saved $84!! And I bought meat! All thanks to you both. And even better than that, the policy change would only have made a difference of $5 for me on this trip. I was sad to hear that some people just can’t buy what they need for their families and have to be so greedy. Just really isn’t in the spirit of what we’re all trying to do.

Your class really opened my eyes about what is possible with coupons and how to “work” a deal. It’s no fun if you’re cheating the system. I love to know that I got such an awesome deal AND played by the rules. I found the most amazing asst manager at Walgreens at Schillinger and Cottage Hill. She is a couponer, too. I went last Wed (2 days after your class) to try my first “deal”. She walked me through rolling transactions, and her goal is to see you get as much as possible with as little out of pocket. I went back on Sunday morning to pick up some of the new weeks deals, and she was actually waiting on another “newbie” to walk them through the Zantac moneymaker. I think it made her proud to see me come in with my list, split my transactions, and “work it”! She wanted to add up my receipts right there to see how much OOP I had spent!

What you are doing is a service to the Mobile area. I mentioned your class in church on Sunday (since I was so excited about my Walgreens deal that I got on the way!) and I couldn’t believe how many other “fans” there were. People are excited to learn and hear what you have to offer. You both have a gift for this. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing it with me. -Kathy
P.S. – I attached some pics of my “homework”. I’ve definitely made my 15 bucks back! (Publix – spent $36, saved $84; Walgreens – OOP $15, still have $25 in RR’s – MADE 10 bucks!) Thank you again!
