Happy Friday: Coupon Proposal
Sent from reader, Meghan:
This past Friday I got home from work and was talking to my boyfriend as I was going through our mail. I was really excited because I got 3 months of the Whole Living Magazine I just signed up for using my Recyclebank points (I am in LOVE with getting all my magazines through Recyclebank!) Sticking out of the top was an advertisement with a special offer. The print and color was really cute so I pulled it out to see what type of product it was for. As I was looking at it I was like, “HEY, that’s me…a picture of me” and then thought “these photo companies are getting really high-tech” (assuming they sent me an ad to entice me to order by using an image on file from one of my previous coupon deals).
However, it wasn’t for a free photo deal, it was for a Free Husband! My super special guy figured out the perfect way to propose to this couponer! He even included coupon terms and a UPC code (the 08132006 portion is our anniversary). He works at a printing company, so a coworker helped him make this for me, which makes it super thoughtful, sweet, special and FREE!!! I feel like the internet and all these YouTube proposals put a lot of pressure on guys to do something grandiose and expensive, so I just wanted to show that something thoughtful and FREE could stack up just as well 🙂
HAPPY FRIDAY! 😀

What a unique and thoughtful proposal! Just beautiful and wonderful way to do it! Congratulations to both of you!
this makes me mad that my bf hasnt proposed yet lol 5 years and i’m still waiting
Same here…. It’s been five years as well and still no question. Sigh. But I can only be patient and be thankful for what I have. 🙂
Super cool and neat! He is a keeper! 🙂 Congrats!
I love it. Congrats.
looks like you just got yourself a husband and made 8 cents! 🙂 congrats!
Beautiful! Love it! CONGRATULATIONS!
Very cute and sweet, but I’m old fashioned and still prefer the face to face on bended knee proposal. Married 29 years and still going strong with the man that got on one knee to propose.
so thoughtful and adorable! really love this. Congrats!!!!
Thats awesome! Congrats and best wishes for many years to come!
LAME! Did you check the expiration date?
That is really cute!! congrats
Beautiful! Congrats to you both!
So grateful for my hubs of 29.5 years who puts up with my couponing/frugalizing ways and saw me thru 9+ surgeries. When we were dating, he collected candy bar wrappers from the college study lounge and stopped the car for one on the side of the road for a $5 rebate. When he came home on holiday break, his mom found loads of wrappers in his coat pocket & thought he’d gone off the diet wagon in a BIG way!
Aww! So sweet! Congrats!
Oh my gosh, that is so awesome and amazing I just loved reading this. Thank you to the reader for sharing this (and congrats!) and thank you to hip2save for posting this.
I wonder what your wedding invitations will look like. Wow, he is something special!
Love this!!!! You’ve got a keeper – he clearly knows you well (and appreciates your couponing skills too)! I sure hope you display this at your wedding and then in your home. How special, unique and sweet!!!!
