How I saved money on my fourth baby registry -- and you can too

Shopping for a new baby can be overwhelming...and expensive. Here are some tips to save hundreds!
I am a self-proclaimed bargain queen. When the show Extreme Couponers came out, I was like "Psh, that's old news". Not saying I'm a hoarder, but I can spot a clearance sticker from a mile away. The strange thing is that my mom never really used coupons when I was growing up. It was just a habit I picked up on my own...at 8 years old.
When I found out I was having twins, my bargain-shopping wheels started turning. Diapers! Baby gear! Clothes....for TWO"! We had to save where we could and I started doing research. I found a way to save on almost everything we bought.
I launched my first blog launched when the twins were 10 months old, and my goal was to help parents save money and cook from home. Over the last seven years, my blogging has evolved, but I still love to help people save whenever I can. People see my big coupon binder at the store and ask me questions -- which I love! For baby four, I knew how to save, but things have changed in the eight years since my twins were born. Hello, technology! It's added an extra layer of savings, but I also had to dust off my baby shopping skills a bit. This time around I've found so many deals that we have been able to purchase more new items instead of sticking to hand-me-downs.
Here are my tips to save hundreds.
Start a registry. No matter if you're having a shower or not, start...
