Saving money with coupons

(WTNH) - Coupon guru Gina Juliano offer tips for saving money.

In June of 2009, Gina lost her high paying job as a high school assistant principal and needed to find a way to cut costs. She started couponing, but she couldn't find a website dedicated to CT deals and stores. That's how Gina's Kokopelli was born. It took her a year and a half to find another job, and in that time, she developed Gina's Kokopelli into a great website to help people stretch their hard earned dollars.
