Learn how to trim your monthly grocery bills, get items for free, and much more at “Couponing 101” a new series being hosted by the Peters Township Public Library on two consecutive Saturdays, August 7 and August 14 from 10 - 11:30 a.m.
The two sessions will explain coupon basics such as where to find the best coupons, how to organize your coupons and to use the weekly circulars to your best advantage. Find out how to read a coupon, what to do with expired coupons, and get your children, spouse, family and friends involved in the process. Each participant will receive a coupon packet to help start a coupon collection.
These classes will be offered by local coupon” experts” Cindi Johnson, Randy Piscatelli, and Lori Lautar, who will share the strategies and tips they have learning during their several years of couponing. Ms. Johnson initiated and maintains the “Coupon Swap” box at the library and has been an avid couponer for 40 years. Mr. Piscatelli has donated over $32,000 in food to various agencies that he has gotten for free through clipping coupons. He believes families can cut their food bills by 50 to 75% easily. Ms. Lautar regularly saves at least 50% on her grocery bills with coupons, and plans to share her knowledge about “coupon stacking” - combining more than one discount when purchasing an item.
To attend these free sessions, please register at the library circulation desk, call 724-941-9430, or email the library. Depending on the interest level at these sessions, the library is considering starting a couponing club for patrons to swap coupons, share web sites with coupon offers, and learn to save money on all their purchases.
