If you live in South Florida (Broward, Dade, or Palm Beach counties), then maybe a live local class is right for you! I host classes in a variety of ways, and cover a variety of topics.
My most popular class is Couponing 101 - a beginners guide to couponing. A really popular intro to the world of couponing, Couponing 101 is (on average) a two hour class that covers all of the following topics:
--Coupon Lingo (what is "stacking"? what is a money maker?)
*Deciphering the coupons (what does one item per purchase REALLY mean, etc.)
*How to read coupon abbreviations (BOGO, DND, ETT, etc.)
*Couponing types & references (Catalina, P&G, IP, etc.)
--Making Time to Coupon
--Where to Find Coupons (the paper, online, PLUS! unique resources that are rarely mentioned!)
--How to Organize Your Coupons (never lose or throw away a coupon again!)
--Strategic Shopping & Coupons (how to save 30%, 70%, even 90% on items you regularly buy)
--How to Get Free Items and How to Find MONEY MAKER items
--How to Shop Beyond the Grocery Store (shopping at CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, & more)
--How to Save 30%-70% CONSISTENTLY
--Technology Systems and Couponing
--Debunking Coupon Myths & Lies
--Legal & Ethical Couponing (how to avoid counterfeit coupons, what is legal and what is not)
--How to Start a Stockpile (and the difference between stockpiling and hoarding)

So, you want to come to a class! I host classes in two primary ways; through public venues (schools, churches, community centers, etc.), and through private in-home classes (think Tupperware party, but I'm not going to sell you anything!)
To book me for a public venue, or suggest a public venue to me, please use the contact form on the right hand side of the blog!
Hosting a private class is very simple! You get a group of friends/family/coworkers together who are interested in the class you want to take (Couponing 101, Couponing 102, etc.) and decide on several dates that work well for all of you (I tell you to pick a few dates to help us be able to settle on a date more quickly. Though I love teaching, it is not the only thing I do, so my schedule does have some times where I am unavailable!). Then you contact me, and we set it up!
How simple is that?! Here are a few things to know about in-home classes:

are comfortable for you.
