Samantha's interest in couponing has been ever-growing since she became a stay-at-home-mom with her first son in 2007. With a large reduction in the family budget, couponing helped to keep us within our budget and still allowed some flexibility with our finances. She is a coupon stacking enthusiast and gets a total rush from getting a great deal. Samantha also teaches coupon classes in the Chicago area monthly to help others become obsessed with couponing (it's addictive!).
