With inflation affecting our
grocery routine and other expenses,
it is safe to say y'all a
little deal could go a long way.
Today we're going to help you save
big at the register by learning
how to coupon the right way.
Joining us this morning is
coupon expert Brenda Owens.
Brenda, you have saved $15,000
in about the last 10 years.
I mean, what is the secret
to saving so much money?
Because I have no idea where to begin.
Well, let me tell you, this is definitely
something that everyone can do.
I always tell people, hey,
if you have a lot of money,
keep it in the bank, pay with coupons.
If you don't have a lot of money, guess what?
You're still going to be able to purchase.
And that low out of pocket. Yes.
And you have some great minimal money for it.
We love to hear minimal money, you know.
But there's magazines, coupons, apps.
Like when I go to HEB and I see these,
sometimes I use them,
but I don't really know because I
feel like when you would get the mail,
you would get those brochures
with all the coupons.
And now it's changed a little bit.
It has changed a little bit. Recommend
how? How do we begin? Well,
you know what, let's look at the table.
We have a lot of free or
inexpensive items now.
This is something that everyone
can get and that's what I love.
Couponing is for absolutely everyone.
Now if we look over here to the left,
we are looking at the chicken.
Like who doesn't like chicken?
So listen, there is a deal right now
happening at HEB where we are going to
get a ton of freebies buying chicken.
So. I bought the chicken here for
$12.00 OK what I got free was $15.75
so you didn't 1250.
OK yeah that's amazing.
It's really and these are for
this week other things that you
got free word like the beans
right or you got something
over here you were showing me
earlier you got completely for
free right. So again if you buy the chicken,
you get the beans, the rice,
the tortillas, your salsa,
your queso and your chips absolutely
free using a coupons on at the store.
So these coupons are at the store.
You know what?
Always look for your yellow stickers
giving you even more savings.
2550, maybe 75%. OK,
but aside from HEB,
you also say save your receipts.
This is so important to me
because I always throw them away.
Why should we not throw them away?
Listen. Here's receipts.
So many people throw them away.
You are right.
You know what we do have a money making
app and this app is called Fetch.
All you have to do is scan
your receipt and your receipt.
All receipts into the app.
Making this right over here.
Free gift cards.
I have 90% ninety $90.00.
I have $90.00 of.
Fetch Lowe's,
Lowe's money so people can go spend Lowe's
based on their receipts and they could
buy anything at Lowe's with this.
OK, so continuing on with the
deals are all of these at HEB,
we do have a couple that
is at the the Dollar Tree.
Actually a lot of people don't
know that you can actually use
coupons at the Dollar Tree.
Now these are $1.75 each
after a $0.50 coupon,
making it only $0.75. Now where
did you find these coupons?
At the Dollar Tree or? Where did you get
actually in the San Antonio Express News?
There you go.
So the San Antonio Express News,
you definitely wanna find your
coupons there for extra savings.
But this right here is a cleaning product.
It makes 5 gallons,
$0.75 so definitely this is
an extreme, extreme deal.
Definitely. There you go.
I'm already, I'm just taking notes
right now listening to you talk.
What else do we have on the table that
you were able to get for real good.
Actually, yesterday every Sunday,
HBO offers a free item.
So this was. Absolutely free.
Just using my digital coupon.
OK, that's so that's when
things are just absolutely free.
Now if you look over here,
who doesn't use toothpaste?
Well I hope everyone, yeah,
there might be someone who doesn't,
but ohh yeah, yeah that's
rough. Ohh lordy.
The thing is this one tube of
toothpaste is $6.96 Oh my goodness,
it was on clearance for 174.
We had a two off of two
making it only $0.74.
So this is the time that you are
definitely going to stock. Yeah,
yeah. And every week there's
probably different deals.
I'm at every single week there is
different deals at all stores.
But we're definitely, you know,
looking for clearance items.
So many people do not know that
even on a clearance item, yes,
you can use a clearance on the clearance.
There you go. So
based on your own experience,
OK and you have saved so much money,
you decided you wanted to do this
to help other people as well.
So now you teach classes.
What do those look like?
Well, you know what?
I'm really, really excited to do this.
I started couponing.
Because there was a need in my family,
I wanted to stay home,
you know, with the kids.
So husband said figure it out.
You know, here's a check.
Pay the bills.
Still buy what we need to buy.
So I learned the world of
couponing and I thought,
why should I be the only
one to learn how to save?
I want to definitely get out to
my community and teach others.
So that's what I ended up doing.
And it's 13 years later that I
have started couponing and it's
been about 8 years that I've been
teaching absolute free classes.
That is neat.
So people will be able to contact you.
Yeah. And they can do that
through saving ourway.com.
Savingourway.com, yeah.
So sign up for her classes.
But this is the shop and save show,
and you have the Pogo pass you're
giving away for two people.
Tell me about it. What? Pogo.
So buy one, get one for you.
Normally think when you hear Bogo,
but Pogo,
it gets you stuck all around.
Some states in the
United different States,
they offer the Pogo pass in seven,
seven different cities.
But what that is,
it's a $1500 pass for only 49.
98 It's a $1500 pass of venues.
OK. So there's a ton of venues.
It is called South Central Pass,
and it's something that everyone
should purchase because again,
things are really,
really expensive out there.
And I just said $1500 worth of venues for
4998. Thank you for that.
Yeah, and you're giving one
away right now to two winners.
The guys will be randomly selected,
scan this QR code and hopefully you'll be
on your way to getting that Pogo pass,
which gets you into several.
Different cool attractions.
So Brenda, we're so excited.
It's not over.
You have Valentine's Day deals for everyone,
but that's later on in the show,
so make sure you guys stick around
to hear more from our girl here.
Thank you so much for all this information.
