This is the time of year where everyone is looking for great deals on a multitude of different purchases. Kids are getting ready to head back to school, and it's pretty amazing how quickly the items they need for school can add up and put a strain on your wallet. From classroom supplies to new backpacks, lunch boxes, and new clothes, parents usually wind up sending hundreds of dollars on back to school shopping. There's a way to shop smarter and save more money, though, and I'm excited to share some great tips on saving with Goupon Coupons.

My kids are both headed back to school this year. That's right- B is in 1st grade, and Baby S starts Day School next week! They both had supply lists for school, and B also needed some new uniform pieces, plus a new lunch box for this year. If you're like me, you avoid shopping in-store at all costs. Shopping with two kids leaves me exhausted, and I always forget needed items. I prefer to do my shopping online, from the comfort of home when it's convenient for me to do so... preferably with a wine glass in one hand.

Since I'm shopping online, I double and sometimes triple my savings by using Groupon Coupons. If you're already a lover of Groupon, you know how awesome their 'deal of the day' coupons are for different merchants and stores. I am addicted to checking out their daily deals, because you never know what you might find and score a fab deal on. I also love using Groupon for travel deals! One of these days, I am going to bite the bullet and book a trip to Europe through Groupon!
