These days, paper isn't the only medium for cost savers. These clever people have figured out the latest ways to make coupons work well to cut their household food costs. COUPONING QUEEN. It's true that sometimes a product on sale without a coupon can be cheaper than it would be at the regular price with a coupon. But something on sale with a coupon is even better -- and sometimes free. When com- bined with Catalina promotions (the promotional deals that print on the back of your grocery receipts), coupons often can be moneymak- ers toward the food bill. With Face- book fan sites, such as Money Sav- ing Mom's fan site, Web pages, such as http://www.JillCataldo.com, and local newsgroups, most of the work already is done for you. Couponing requires very little effort for a lot of savings. -- Jenn U., Illinois APP WIZARD. I use an iPhone app called "Best Value" to compare pricing, regardless of size or quan- tity. For example, I can compare a product in ounces with another product in pounds. The careful shopper easily can compare differ- ent units measuring length, weight or volume. I can't wait to retire and follow my wife around the gro- cery saying, "Why did you get that? This one is $0.0014826 cheaper!" The app only cost 99 cents. What a bar- gain. -- Royce B., California EXPERT SOURCES. I have friends who are expert couponers. Often they post pictures on Facebook of all the gro- ceries they bought for very little money. They use a website called Southern Savers. The writer researches weekly ads for Southern stores - - including Publix, Wal- greens and Bi-Lo -- plus digital and print coupons. Then she makes a categorized list Mary Hunt of which coupons to use for the sale items in order to get the best deals. You even can print your own customized grocery list. -- Eliza- beth M., Alabama PRINTING MONEY. I get per- mission from my employer to bring home paper that has been printed on one side. Then I use that paper in my home printer to print my online coupons. That way, all I am paying for is the ink I use, and I get three to four coupons per page, worth any amount from 50 cents to Everyday Cheapskate $3 per coupon. It's like free money. -- Wendy T., Wyoming ANGEL FOOD. For those who cannot shop with coupons, there are two excellent discounted food programs. Great Food for All has large packages of easily prepared food. Everything is frozen, and many of the items are in restaurant packaging. Angel Food Ministries has smaller quantities and includes some fresh and shelf-stable items, as well. Both are excellent values, and I'm saving gas because I don't need to go to the grocery very often. -- Theresa H., Vir- ginia LOYALTY RING. I keep my store loyalty cards on a key chain, alphabet- ized to save time at check- out. -- A.T.H., e-mail Would you like to send a tip to Mary? You can e-mail her at mary@everydaycheapskate.com, or write to Everyday Cheapskate, P.O. Box 2135, Paramount, CA 90723. Include your first and last name and state. Mary Hunt is the founder of www.DebtProofLiving.com and author of 18 books, including "Debt-Proof Living" and "Tiptionary 2." Teacher education programs approved SACRAMENTO – The Commission on Teacher Credentialing’s appointed accrediting body, the Com- mittee on Accreditation, began the 2010-11 academic year by approving four programs for initial institu- tional accreditation and granting accreditation to three. At its August 2010 meeting, the committee reviewed the proposals of four Beginning Teacher Support and Assessment (BTSA) Induction programs planning to provide services to teacher candidates seeking to complete an Education Specialist creden- tial. North State BTSA through Tehama County Office of Education, Tri-County BTSA Induction, Yolo- Solano BTSA Induction, and the Butte County Office of Education BTSA Induction were granted initial institutional approval by the COA. These programs’ proposals were deemed success- ful in their responses to the standards and precondi- tions that govern all programs as adopted by the com- mission. The next step for these institutions is COA approval of their specific teacher preparation pro- grams. Then, the programs will be integrated into the commission’s accreditation system and will be set on a 7-year cycle of accreditation activities. Also at the August meeting, the COA reviewed the responses to stipulations submitted by four institu- Police reports The following infor- mation is compiled from Red Bluff Police Department, Tehama County Sheriff ’s Department, Corning Police Department and California Highway Patrol.

Odd •A woman reported- ly skipped out on a man- icure payment, but left a laptop as collateral, sev- eral weeks ago at Pro Nails. • Someone reported recieving hundreds of his or her son’s ex-girl- friend’s text messages. When police investigat- ed the matter, they found both parties were complicit in what was described as an ongoing tions that fell short of full Accreditation during the 2009-10 accreditation year. Three of the four institutions were deemed to have adequately addressed the concerns of their accredita- tion team – a work group of trained evaluators includ- ing commission staff and other education experts. Simpson University, Patten University and San Diego Unified School District were all awarded full accred- itation by the COA. The remaining institution continues to work close- ly with its accreditation team to address any remain- ing minor and technical issues. All institutions are given one year to address stipulations identified by their accreditation team. A final item of interest is the ongoing work of teacher preparation programs to align with the most current program standards adopted by the Commis- sion. University of California and California State University campuses, as well as county offices of edu- cation and school districts that offer teacher prepara- tion programs have aligned their programs in a num- ber of Special Education subjects and Career Techni- cal Education. The COA meets several times a year in a public forum.
