Savvy Blogger Introduces Coupon Classes to Retail Stores

Online, August 2, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Coupon savvy blogger, Melissa Garcia, owner and creator of www.consumerqueen.com, teaches coupon saving classes at local Walmart stores while also helping her local food bank.

Melissa uses her site as a ministry to help moms fight the rising costs of the economy by showing them ways to cut costs through "real" couponing, shopping for sales and frugal tips. As an extension of her blog, Melissa started teaching coupon classes in a live interactive format. News quickly spread about Melissa's classes and she soon grabbed the managers' attention at her local Walmart.

"Consumers can save tons of money by using coupons effectively," said Melissa. "Walmart shoppers are always looking for ways to save money. My classes teach consumers the proper ways to coupon, while also educating Walmart employees on how to spot coupon fraud."

The classes have been very beneficial to both consumers and Walmart employees. Attendees are encouraged to bring one canned food item that is donated to her local Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma.

After receiving great feedback from her local Walmart classes, Melissa, who is also part of the Walmart blogger group called the Walmart Moms, contacted Walmart Home Office to let them know what she was doing. Very intrigued, Walmart representatives drove to Oklahoma to attend one of her classes. Melissa now teaches classes at other local retailers and hopes to branch out and teach coupon classes in retail stores nationwide.
