My First Post!

Hi, my name is Anne (hi, Anne!).  I've been addicted to sales, coupons and freebies since becoming an adult and having to pay for stuff on my own.  Recently I stumbled upon some wonderful blogs that feed my addiction, in a healthy way, and I've been laughing all the way to the bank.  These blogs do such a great job that I will post links to them in my next blog.  I am not trying to replace those blogs at all.  What I found is that many of the people writing those blogs don't live on the West Coast (which I do) and are mothers (which I am not...yet).  So this blog is to create a forum for sushi eating, latte sipping 20-somethings who only do that stuff when there's sale and a coupon involved.  This blog will also focus on stores that are in this region of the country, which I feel have been entirely overlooked by other blogs because, well, they don't know that the stores exist!

As much as this will be a great way to get steals and deals out to other people, I unfortunately can't promise regular posts.  I work full-time as a teacher and I'm going to grad school part-time for a Master's degree.  I am happily married and have a needy cat.  Yes, all of these demands at the same time.  So I will probably be able to post more during summer than fall, but I'll do the best I can.  Here we go!
