    Hi there,

    I am a journalist for a national newspaper and I'm looking to speak with people who find, discuss, share, and use coupons and in the process, have become quite adept at saving money on weekly/monthly shopping bills.

    I am hoping to find case studies who are happy to discuss their experiences of couponing - extreme or otherwise - and share some of their tips with our readers. I would hope we could photograph a case study or two for the newspaper.

    If there are couponing clubs/groups etc, I'd love to hear from them.

    I am working on this for Sunday, 5th Feb, so please get in touch if you would like to contribute to the piece.

    Please PM me if you are interested .

    This is a genuine request for help and feedback from those of you in the know is most welcome. Thanks for reading this.

    @Mods, apologies if media requests are not permitted in this section. I have emailed boards about posting such a request.

    The first rule of couponing is not to reveal the secrets in a national newspaper.;)

    I can say I was the op of the original couponing thread and I was a little inspired by seeing an episode of "Extreme Couponing" but my experience comes from years of couponing back at home with my mom :)

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
