I am Jenn, and I live in beautiful West Virginia. I decided on the blog name, "Books, Bargains, Blessings" because I thought it was the best way to sum up my life in three words. (Plus I inherited my mother's love for alliteration!)
I am a prolific reader, and I started learning to be frugal and budgeting at a young age. I remember hearing my parents tell me how expensive college was, and I asked them if I could open a savings account and put money in it so I could help afford college. I was five years old. All birthday and Christmas monies always were tucked away in the bank. I still have that savings account today, although I did use my childhood savings for my education!
I was into extreme couponing before it was cool. In the early 1990s I was heavily involved in the coupon hobby. Finances were such that if I wasn't, we just wouldn't have eaten. So I know what it is like to have to make do with little. That's one reason I talk so much about finances, budgeting, and how to find good deals on my blog. I know there are others out there who, like I once was, are in debt and having to stretch every dollar until George Washington screams. I have worked at home my entire adult life. I often share advice on how to make money online. I have received several awards from eBay over the years for being an outstanding seller.
The "Blessings" part of my blog encompasses family (my husband and I are hoping to adopt even though we were only married in 2015). Also, my faith is very important to me.
I invite you to follow my blog on social media and subscribe to my newsletter. (Don't worry, I don't send e-mails too often, maybe once a week, and of course will share good deals on days like Black Friday.)
If you have any questions, I'd love to answer them. I also love hearing about things you would like me to write about on Books, Bargains, Blessings.
