Welcome to The Coupon Minx! Owned and Operated by yours truly, Natalie Minx. After spending nearly 9 years working as an independent model, I had to learn how to save more and spend less! I have created this all inclusive blog to help you, the model, save money on all of your everyday essentials! From make-up to travel to wardrobe to manicures to how-to's and more!...I wish a blog like this existed when I started out! And remember...coupon is NOT a dirty word!

Coupon Speak...Speech? What did she say?

-------------------------- COUPON SPEAK --------------------------

First thing's first, learn the language of "Coupon Speak" ie the short verbiage used to keep already lengthy posts a little shorter! Here are the most common abbreviations, acronyms, terms, whatever you wana call them, that I use…here and across the internet! Do remember, this blog is NOT based on coupon deals BUT I will post them when I find them for drug stores, target and the like...many times you can print coupons (I'll go over that in the next section) so there isn't even a need to get a Sunday paper...but they do have the best! ;)
