He finds more coupons than my the daughter. Each day when the mail comes, my husband asks how much we received from the companies. Last night, I was walking out to the mail box to send for a free Capn Crunch and told him about it. He hugged me and said how proud he was for all the money Ive irt saved.

It is a drive from our home to Poughkeepsie and my sister, Mary, gave me the ride up there. Although I was very inexperienced, the refunders at the convention were very friendly and helpful. I learned how to trade forms and the hours just flew by my sister and I were a wonderful time. such having A few days after the convention, one of the organizers called to tell me that my name had been drawn as the winner of a fish tank full of boxtops and labels.
