God's Awesome Provision!!!

I AM SO EXCITED!!!!
Just a short testimony...a couple of weeks ago I was
invited to a "couponing class" put on by Anita, Celicia
and Alexis Huron. (They are the 3 oldest girls in a family
of 15 children!!) I really wanted to go...the thought of
saving money sounded really good...so I decided to go.
WOWWWWWWWWW...AM I GLAD I DID!!!!
These girls did such an awesome job sharing what God is doing
in their family in the area of using coupons to save their
family money on their grocery bill. They shared how that in
the last year they saved $8,000.00 at one store alone!!!
Okay...they really had my attention now!!!!
Okay...it sounded good...so let's give it a try and see what
I can do...
Another short note...when I left that morning, I had left my
cellphone at home...I don't go anywhere without my cellphone...
God wanted me to leave that phone home. On my way home from
the class I was about ready to bust!!! I had no one to talk to
and NO CELL PHONE!!!! All of a sudden in the quiet of my
15 passenger van a sweet voice whispered in my ear...

"Tracy, if you will be faithful in the little things I will be
faithful in much!!!"

WOW!!! What do you say to the Lord when He whispers that in your
ear??!! Okay, Lord...I will give it a try.

After two weeks of "couponing" I am so excited that I am SHOUTING
IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS!!! If you aren't already shopping this way
and are interested, let me know and I will help you get started.
If fact, they did a filming of the class and when it comes available
I will post it for those who are interested.

Today...Jan. 27th, I went grocery shopping. I went to CVS, Walgreens
and Publix. I sent 84.00 and brought home 247.00 worth of products!!!
WAHOOOOOOO!!!!! At Publix I got 16 boxes of cereal for 4.00!!!!!
I have taken pictures and they will follow this post.

My husband is so excited!!! We are buying namebrand products for a
fraction of the price and stocking our cabinets in such an abundance!!!
As of today...just 2 weeks worth of shopping...we have enough shampoo,
toothpaste, razors, cleaning products and hair detangler to get us thru
until the end of the year!!! My hubby became a believer when he bought
a 2.79 tube of toothpaste for .49 the other day!!!

My prayer is that I have shared this testimony and that someone will be
encouraged and changed by it. God is such an awesome provider!!!

MANY, MANY thanks and much love to the Huron girls for their obedience
to God's prompting in having this class. This is one momma who will be
forever indebted to them!!!! (in a good way!!!:))

Til later...
Tracy

  2. Praise the Lord! He uses our family and friends to be a blessing to us, doesn't He? I am so happy for you, Tracy, that you have found such a great system!! It really seems to be paying off for you. It is great that your heart and mind were quiet enough to hear the soft, sweet voice of the Lord speak to you. What a wonderful testimony :)
    You are a blessing to us all, Tracy!

    Love,

  5. So how do we get more information on the coupons use. We are a smaller family. But we also like to save and be able to use the Lord's money more wisely when we can.
