Just me…
Can I just take a moment to say that I love ALL my readers… seriously! I really appreciate each and every one of you. I love that everyone on my site is different. We come from different areas, different backgrounds, we’re different ages… we’ve got different interests, but we’re all here for the same reason–to save some money and hopefully have fun doing it. Right?
I know I’ve said this many times before, but I’m not perfect by any means… actually far from it! I think I make more mistakes then the average person (ask my hubby), but you know what, I’m totally fine with that. It’s me being me and I’m not willing to try and concor perfection at 28!;)
I also want to say that I find comments on my site hilarious! Last night I almost peed my pants (no joke) reading through the comments on the Coffee-Mate coupon post. I thought it was quite odd that I had 48 comments, so I started reading through all of them and I’m not kidding, there are some funny comments! This has got to be one of my favorite comments by far:
The reason I love this comment. Well, first read through the comments before it and then remember this comment is totally sarcastic and there’s obviously no truth to it. The thing I love about this comment, though, the little smile face at the end. To me it says lighten up–which I think is a great thing to remember. Using coupons and snagging freebies doesn’t always go as planned… as I’m sure most of you are aware of. If we remember this and remember there’s always another deal around the corner, then I think we’ll all see that nothing is really that big of a deal.
I know there have been some negative comments on my site, but you know what? There are way more positive comments and there are also quite a few funny comments. These comments always make up for the 1 or 2 negative comments I receive on a regular basis.
Anyway, the point of this post… I’m not quite sure. Now I guess I’ll get back to our regularly scheduled programming and a new deal will be emerging soon……
YOU ROCK!! SERIOUSLY!!
People are assholes. That is all.
man I love you!!
lol! I was pissed for 2 seconds thinking you were younger than me! Then I realized we’re actually the same age!
Good for you keeping such a positive attitude. Too bad the rest of the world can’t take the same character attribute.
Thanks for all you do
I love your site! There’s a few others I check (one is for the local grocery store deals), but you always have the latest deals up quicker than any of the others! Seconding Anon 7:49…YOU ROCK!!
You are the greatest. I check your site at least 10-15 times a day and share with friends and family any deals I might come across. Your doing a wonderful job. Thanks for keeping things interesting.
Love you Collin, you’re AWESOME!!!
and this is why I read your blog… you have the best sense of humor… i wish we lived close by I am sure we would be friends! you crack me up! thanks for everything!
I recently had a “coupon class” because all my co workers & friends and family all kept asking how i do it…and the first thing i told all 25 of them was HIP2SAVE.BLOGSPOT.COM is the first place you should start! I truly am happy I found your site last february…I’ve saved thousands already this year! 🙂
Way to go girl!
I love your site!! You are the best and I me and all of my friends are completely addicted to this site!! Thank you for all you do!
You are too cute! and so right… Keep up the awesome work!! We love you!
I love your site!! You are the best and I me and all of my friends are completely addicted to this site!! Thank you for all you do!
I am new to couponing and I love it!! Thank you for all your great info. I have been checking your site constantly for new deals and I am now on a first name basis with my new “friends” at CVS and Walgreens! Keep up the great work!!!
Collin, I see negative comments on here once in awhile, and it always drags me down. I am glad to hear that you’re not letting them get to you. You’re a ROCK STAR! – truly!! I read about 15 other money saving blog sites, and yours is the best.
I have been couponing for over 20 yrs, been on couponing boards for over 12, but love your blog best of all the blogs and boards. You are the best!!! Keep up the good work, I too refer everyone to your blog. I love watching your follow me mondays.
Started couponing this last spring. I have watched your videos every week and have truely learned from them. I am sooooo glad you laugh at yourself and talk with a sense of yourself. Your site is edgy which is why you are #1 on my list of sites to keep a daily post of. You are current and coming from a business background that says alot. I recommend your site every day. That is how often people ask me how I know what is going on at grocery stores, Wags, CVS and Walmart. Sometimes when a site gets popular there is more people so a chance for more negative. Head up and keep going…..Girl you are sharp and alert and I am truely glad you are on my team. Thanks!
Don’t worry about the negative comments. I am new to this and can’t wait to check your site every morning to find new deals. I check it probably 8 or 9 times a day. Thanks so much for helping so many people especially those of us who are new to couponing.
Love love love it , don’t you dare change a thing . If people can’t get over themselves then too dang bad. You are the Coupon/Deal DIVA !!! My kids tease me when I sit at the computer”””get her binder she’s on the computer….””” so keep on keepin’ on my friend . Thanks for a great site.
I thought that comment was hilarious when I saw it yesterday. 🙂 Thank you so so much for all you do! You have helped me save so much money over the past year, it is not even funny.
That was my comment! Just kidding. It wasn’t. But I wish it was. For like 2 nano seconds it annoyed me, the sarcasm. But then I truly did lighten up and had to laugh!
Always LOVEEEEEE you dear Collin! I love your positive attitude, your humor, your beautiful smile, your devotion to this site, and of course tons of fantastic deals you post every day. Your blog make me feel so happy and rewarding and I can not express how grateful I found your site! We all support you and wish you all the best! You ROCK~~~~~
THANK YOU!!!! 🙂
Maggie
awww! we love you too and EVERYTHING you do!!!!!
That post is hilarious — man, some people really get worked up over deals! haha
You Go Girl! Way to be positive and remind us to be also!
And we love you!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to post all of these amazing deals for us!
Agree with all the others….you are a very talented and gracious person! You help thousands of us save $ every day. You may never know how much that means to some people….I’m sure there are women on here who “save” their families financially every day because of the deals you post. Helping people to make their dollar go further is a gift, and you’ve for sure got it! My friends love it when I send out an email to update them on a deal you’ve just posted. Keep them coming and THANK YOU!
I loved that she was going to take a bath in it “weeeeee”. Because I could totally picture a made up person in my mind spinning in a circle and saying it at the same time. LOL
Cracked me up.
Your site is AWESOME and I must say so are U!! I LOVE LOVE Watch or follow me Mondays ( I think that’s right lol), you are just so funny and REAL!!! Being REAL goes along way these days. You always have the fastest up to date material. We have a coupon site here in MN, it’s good. But, YOU ROCK!! I have gotten my whole family into the whole couponing thing. EVEN MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER!! I know I was really “into” couponing when I asked my husband to run to the store and pick up some soda and said serious as all get out “I don’t suppose you have a coupon for that?” I about died!!! and of course I went right on to Facebook to tell on my “friends” about it and of course only the coupon queens totally understood it!! You’re doing a wonderful job!!!
AMEN to that Collin! All you can do is pray for the angry people and be sooo happy for everyone else’s positive attitude! I would rather make someone smile then ruin their day:)
This was another fantastic post. I read at least a dozen couponing/money-saving websites and blogs daily and yours is BY FAR my favorite. You have such a great personality and sense of humor! I especially love the follow me monday videos. Thanks for all you do!

I have one word to describe you and your Blog:
“JUSTINCREDIBLE”
I found your site in the fall when I didn’t print Bagel Bite coupons and they were no longer available then of course I wanted them. You were the only site I found that had the new link to their coupons. I’ve saved so much money using your site and I want to thank you!
I have gotten so much from this site!!! Your deals are great, and you are so informative! Thank you!
oh my, I just had a great time reading the Coffee Mate posts!!! Hillarious!!! ROFL!!! Thanks for pointing this out — tehe
I love your site too and I think your great. Check it several times every day. Keep up the great work.
This may be a silly comment…but why would someone make a negative remark? Truly…what is their point? We are all here to help each other and we aren’t being charged to take part in this website. Sooooooo…I think that perhaps, the people that make negative comments wouldn’t be happy in any instance.
Thank you for all of you do.
And to High Heels…AMEN SISTER!!
What a sweet post! We love you too! LOL! So glad to know you’re above all of the drama and can actually find humor in it. I had to put down my James Patterson novel for a day just to keep up with that “Target/Toys R Us/Price Match/Alphabet Catapillar toy thingy” deal that grew to over 300+ posts! That was soooo much more entertaining! LOL!
Stay cool and thanks for all the hard work and kindness you share.
We all love you and all the millions of posts you do a day to keep us up to date! Keep doing what your doing for the people out there that love you to death for doing all the hard work!

What? Someone said something bad??
Wow, I printed my 2 coupons and then clicked on “Special Offers” at the top of the screen and it let me print 2 more through that screen. I like the ideas for using the creamer everyone was giving. Thanks Collin for commenting on the comments ~ otherwise I would have missed all of these yummy ideas!!! So happy:)
yeah. the coffee-mate post was funny. I personally think it is funny when others are so worried about other people getting more freebies then them or so called “taking advantage of freebies. Its amusing. Kinda like watching a soap opera but not having to deal with all the bad acting.
Just have to say that I am an AVID couponer and your site it my absolute favorite….stop by MANY times a day! thank you for all of your hard work!
I love the funny comments too! They keep it interesting.
After reading all of those negative comments, that post made me laugh out loud. I love this site and i love your follow me monday videos. They are awesome. Although i have only been couponing for a short time, your site is by far the best. I love your positive attitude. I am glad you aren’t letting the negative nellies get to you.
We love you & this site!!! Thanks for all you do!! It is greatly appreciated!! I love your positive attitude as well!!
I am so glad that you have a great sense of humor – I always worry that the few negative comments here and there may make you want to quit and you just can’t do that to the rest of us! 🙂
My favorite will always be the comments that lead to I’m a bad mom because I stay at home and eat Trident gum. Oh my… lighten up folks. 😉
YOU and the positive comments far outweigh the nasty ones that appear from time to time. It’s also nice to find people so helpful when you post a comment to one of your deals and find someone reply with a answer to a question I might ask.
Thank YOU for doing what you do. I ? your blog and share when I can. Please keep up the good work. Don’t let others jealousy and loneliness slow you down. The negative people could use a life.
They should be completely ignored. They HATE that.
I call you the Coupon Czar! I most love that you correct your coupon deals as soon as you realize there may be a mistake or warn others of potential trouble with a deal. I am not looking for a site that will fool me…just one that is honest. Keep being honest and open it’s working!!!!
If you guys have facebook– we should start a group!!!!!
