Our First Blog



Recently my husband and I purchased a “gift certificate” from an unnamed source. It wasn’t until we paid $20.00 for a total of four $25.00 gift cards that we were able to read the dozens of restrictions placed on the gift card. These included (to name a few) not using the giftcard on a Friday, Saturday, Sunday or any major holiday. Drinks were not included and you could only use one gift card at a time. We also had to purchase a minimum of $50.00 of food in order to use that one gift card. Suffice it to say, we did not get our money’s worth that date night.
My name is Bekah and my sister Kirsten and I are the “coupon sisters.” Kirsten has three kids and a fourth on the way and I have one child and another on the way. Needless to say, we are growing families and as such, are living on limited budgets. We have researched other couponing sites and never found any of them useful. We found that you either had to sign up for memberships and, by so doing, deal with countless useless junk mail and irritating spam; or you had to purchase a coupon (like I did) with multiple restrictions that ends up being almost useless.  Of course there’s always those loose-leaf mailers;  but it always seems to me that I get coupons when I don’t need them, and when I do need them none are available or they are expired.
The great thing about our website is that the coupons are available all day every day. You don’t have to sign up and get annoying e-mails from us and you don’t have to pay any money to get these deals. We are also proud to go local and support Tucson businesses that we use and recommend. We hope you enjoy browsing through our coupons and checking out our blog periodically to get coupon updates, recipes and other “saver stories” from local Tucson moms!
