I enjoyed your video, I was impressed with it’s high quality.

If you don’t mind me asking, what did you shoot it with?

I’ve been buying this one for a few months now. I’m glad to see I’m not the only one who is scoring great deals with these coupons! Keep up the great tips, Lynnae.

I think my wife subscribed to All You (even more frugal) and we enjoy picking through the coupons. Enjoyed the video tip, Lynnae–great job!

The video was a nice change, though not a frugal use of bandwidth. Just kidding! If you do a lot of videos you might want to invest in a clip-on mic called a lavalier and a cord to plug into your camera’s mic-in port, if it has one. This will improve your sound dramatically. Otherwise the video was great (and the sound was acceptable).

Good luck signing up for the free issues using “Bill Me Later!” Was anybody able to get this to work, or did you give your credit card information?

I like your new kitchen :)

Seriously, I have got to get the sound fixed on my computer …. videos are just not the same without sound!

I signed up for the free issues a couple of months ago and I was able to use the bill me later feature. I’ve been enjoying the free issues and have already paid for a year’s subscription.

You are so cute! :)

@JamesM – Yeah, I tried after I posted the link and I was not able to get it to work either. I might just go ahead and give the CC#.

Hi Lynnae,
You look awesome! Gladys directed me to your website — and I think I’m going to enjoy it! My life has reached the point where I must learn to be frugal! Thanks for setting this up — You’ve done a great job!

I love your videos–it is fun to see you “in real life”. :-)
I love that magazine…..I am waiting until I have some extra cash to subscribe to it! I bought a subscription for my sis-in-law. She was so excited about the coupons. The whole thing is so practical.
Thanks for sharing–now that I know “Being Frugal” endorses it, I am fully convinced! :-)

Great video Lynnae :)

I recently subscribed to this magazine because of all the coupons! I was having a hard time finding a “frugal” subscription price as everyone seemed to want $23-24 for a year’s subscription. Lo and behold, I received a fund-raising offer from my niece who was selling magazine subscriptions. Usually you don’t find any really great deals as they’re doing a fundraiser…but surprise, there was “All You” with a subscription price of $16, so I jumped on the bandwagon.

Looks like they’ve fixed the problem, I was able to sign up for two “free” trial issues and use Bill Me Later. They’re only free if you cancel, otherwise you pay for the next 10 issues. Fair enough.

You’re one of the “WalMart Moms” plugging a magazine that is only sold in Walmart.
Interesting. Nice gig!

@Sara – Very true, but I’ve been reading All You for at least a couple of years. I first found out about the great coupon deals at the Fishing for Deals forums. If Target sold an exclusive magazine with great coupons, I wouldn’t hesitate to give it a plug, but they don’t.
