Wow--you are stubborn and that's a good thing. I found these sites when recovering from pneumonia. Glad to have you here, and hope you have many more years!

Bless you-as I used to tell my patients-stubbornness can be a good thing ! (I like your humor too) Glad you found us & hope you come around for a long time! I know Dawn,Dolores & I have been doing the freebies for awhile-I discovered sweeping while I was bored in the hosp.If you need anything,holler at 1 of us Mods or post here-we have a lot of helpful members

I also started doing this because of illness. Helps keep my mind focused on things other then bad. Everybody here has been great. Welcome! :)

Welcome to the forum, you fit right in quietman429! Looks like a lot of us discovered freebies and couponing while ill or recovering. I really got into it when I was unable to work following brain surgery in 2004 and suffering from seizures for a few years afterward. I'm now retired and find that couponing and freebies help stretch my budget!
