About My Blog
Welcome! Happy Clippings was created to share information on deals found in and around Happy Valley PA. There are several great coupon & saving websites already out there. (See Blogroll - Other Coupon Sites). The problem is there's not much information that is specific to our local stores such as Giant PA and Wegmans including their prices & coupon policies. Happy Clippings is focused on providing some of these local deals to you.
Although local deals are my primary focus, other deals nationwide may be posted. Plus, here you'll find out about many coupons and sales applicable to all areas. SO, please visit often even if you are not from the State College, PA area. Everyone is welcome because we all have a common goal - to save money no matter where we live!
Happy Clippings!
About Me
I won't pretend to be truly frugal. I like to save money so I can spend it on things I really love and have money for a rainy day. Saving money has been a big part of my life more than couponing. Even when money is good, I like to set a detailed budget and I don't like to have any credit card debt. I always try to pay off our credit cards.
Here's a funny story. When my husband and I first started dating, he somehow caught a glimpse of one of my ATM receipts. He almost fell over. He said he had to do a double take. I told him I always save a set amount of money every month - no excuses.
Then I started to see our banking accounts starting to go low. Seeing a low balance made me feel like we were living paycheck to paycheck. I hated that feeling. But, how could that be?!? Because I stopped paying attention and I stopped doing my "save a set amount of money every month - no excuses" routine. I finally took control back around the spring of 2009! I was back on the "budget" routine.
The spring of 2009 is also when my journey to couponing began. I never realized how much money I could save. Seriously. I can't believe I never did it before. I was always good at just saving our income. Now, I feel like the money I save on groceries, household items, etc. is how I contribute financially to my family.
