Welcome!

Welcome to my new blog, The Penny-Saving Pupil!

If you know me, you are probably aware of my recent endeavors couponing and sweepstaking, so you can skip this next paragraph.

My name is Jessi, and I live and go to college in Southern Illinois. I am currently a 25 year old senior in Linguistics, working to start as a Graduate Student in Sociology next fall. My wife and I share an apartment with our beautiful cat Miyuki (mee-you-key) and our little Shih-Poo puppy, Sebastian. We live on a very limited budget, mostly supplied by my student loans. I have to use these college refunds to pay for everything from rent to food to gas and everything in-between! Needless to say, I have to do an awful lot with an awful little, so this blog is all about how I do it.

I'm going to be giving you tips on everything I can think of: how I manage time for college and home, how to coupon (somewhat) effectively when you just don't have time to do it, why and how you should be entering sweepstakes, and even reviews on what I have won or bought on a budget! Be sure to follow along to learn about all my whirlwind ventures!
