What others are saying about our workshops:

“We regularly offer the Gateway to Saving programs at Missouri State University for our faculty and staff through the Employee Wellness Program. We have such strong interest that we keep a running waiting list for every class! The reviews I get even months after the program had run are phenomenal. Women and men alike email me telling me what they bought and how much they saved by using the principals that Alicia teaches. These people are saving in the hundreds of dollars right after each class! You think you know it all until you attend one of Alicia’s classes! You will be amazed and how much you’ll save on groceries and be able to spend on something much more exciting than a tube of toothpaste and a box of macaroni each week!” – Sheila Bowen, Missouri State University

“We have cut our $400-$450 monthly grocery bill down to $100-$150 with your Ultimate Couponing I Workshop.Since we cut our grocery bill down to around $150 a month, we can now pay an extra $320 a month towards our mortgage I called up GMAC and had them calculate it into the loan for me, they say at that rate we will have our house paid off in 8 years instead of 29″ Clayton B.

“I took your Christmas class last October. We spent roughly $800 for everything. It helped us save $152 dollars last year. This year I am almost done and have spent $300. Thank You!”- Brandy C. (08/18/2011)

“Since taking your classes starting last fall, Ultimate Couponing I, II, Christmas, and Sensible Shopping I have saved my family around $3000. Haven’t had as much time to spend on it this summer, but still saving at least 30% on groceries and using my stockpile of basics.”- Lynn R.

Hi, I saw the piece about you on KOLR 10, thought it was fab. I’d like to know if buying the book affords one the same benefits as one that attends the workshops e.g. members access, support, etc. Thanks for your time. Keep up the awesome work!!

Cindy,

Thank you so much! Currently, I do not extend the same benefits to those buying the book as I do those that attend a workshop.
