  1. I’m only able to come Thursday but I can’t wait to meet you IRL! 🙂

  2. Yay – I’m so excited you are coming! And honored! I *heart* reading your blog.

    I just signed up for both and I’m excited to meet you and learn from you. When I just started couponing, I got overwhelmed in coupons and printed all of them, even for things I’d never buy, because it could be a moneymaker. I don’t do that as much now, but I definitely could benefit from strategies. I end up throwing away lots of expired coupons.
