    I was wondering if “work at home mom and how she saves money” article is true and not a scam. Has anyone looked into this? Can you explain the procedure involved and is applicable to Canadians?

    aerosmith,
    Couponing is very different in the USA than Canada. US consumers are able to apply multiple coupons to a product, and use coupons when other specials are on. They also have many get a product free when you buy another product. This allows savings by applying a dollars off coupon to a buy one get one free deal. an option not available in Canada. The tale about the woman in the States getter her multiple baskets of groceries for almost free cannot happen in Canada, due to the differences in the ability to engage in such promotions.
