This week we decided to stay on the lighter side of things. Having a baby in the NICU can be a major financial burden, no matter how financially stable mom and dad were prior to baby's arrival. So, Amy decided to teach the parents a great way to save some money: extreme couponing! Amy, an experienced coupon-er herself, taught an hour long "Couponing 101" class for our biggest crowd yet. She received rave reviews, and many of the parents could not wait to buy up 6-8 copies of this week's Birmingham News and get started saving.
If you are interested in learning more about extreme couponing, here are a couple of great websites:
Next week will be my last "official" week with NICU Family Support, but I plan to visit as frequently as my fall schedule with allow (here's hoping pediatrics and adult health will go easy on us!).
