When it comes to saving a buck or two, Tiana Thomas, Wife 7 Mother of 4, also known in her community as QT Coupons, knows all about it. The veteran couponer has lived the majority of her life saving what can be saved through coupons, and today, she has made it her mission to help everyone save as much as they can in everyday necessities.
“When I first learned about coupons, I was a child helping my grandmother clip them every week from the Sunday newspaper,” QT Coupons shared. “I used to think to myself why we are taking hours of our time every week clipping when we will only save $1 per coupon. It didn’t make sense to me how that little value was helping us save. She never broke it down to be, but I can say I don’t ever recall running out of toilet paper or laundry soap growing up as a child,” the coupon expert added further.
From her grandmother’s ways, QT Coupons learned the value of patiently clipping coupons from newspaper inserts to help them save. But it wasn’t until 2018 when her passion for coupons grew. QT Coupons says that it started with a social media post by her friend who shared how she got basket loads of items for cheaper than original retail prices.
QT Coupons did not hesitate to reach out to her friend who wrote the social media post, but unfortunately, she did not get the response she was looking for. It was then that she realized that there must be people like herself who also want to learn how others are saving through coupons but have no idea where to start. So QT Coupons started researching tips and tricks to win the coupon game.
QT Coupons then began couponing and shared that she has not done any shopping trips without them ever since. “I thought it was just something I thought I would do just to save a few bucks from time to time. I mean, I was always trying to get a deal here and there because, by nature, I am cheap when it comes to shopping, but couponing is saving on an entirely different level,” the expert said. “Who likes paying full price? I sure don’t!”
Three years after her life-changing epiphany, QT Coupons is not helping others save by teaching them the fundamentals of shopping smarter. Couponing has given her a platform to help families save hundreds or even thousands on their shopping trips, which has given her great satisfaction and a sense of purpose.
QT Coupons shares her knowledge through Instagram, where she calls her followers QTs. The expert shared that she feels overjoyed every time a follower messages her on the platform to share how her couponing methods have changed their life. Just as life-changing and rewarding couponing has been for her, QT Coupons also wants others to feel the same thing in their life.
QT Coupons has also written an ebook called Being a QT Couponer, which is a beginner’s guide to couponing. The book aims to teach everyone couponing in its simplicity to help readers get started right away.
