Coupons . . .?

So I've heard a lot of things about 'couponing' lately. I know people have been doing it for a long time, but this is something that's completly new to me.

Somebody I work with was talking about it the other day. She said it kind of feels like gambling . . . you become completly addicted, and it feels good when you come out with a 'win.'

My sister-in-law does it, and seems to save a lot of money.

Multiple people on my Facebook talk about it.

So I figure, if it saves so much money, and makes you feel better about yourself in the end, why not try it myself? Afterall, it can't be too difficult, can it?

So I started researching it a bit. And boy was I wrong.

After reading about it a little, it seems pretty complicated to me. I've heard that it takes a bit to get it all together, so perhaps this is why it's so overwhelming-looking . . . ?

Either way, I've decided I'm going to give it a shot. Who know's how far I'll get . . . it seems awfully time consuming. But at the same time, maybe I'll really get into it. It can't hurt to try, right?

Anybody have any suggestions for me? Afterall, I really have no idea what I'm doing . . .
