If you had discovered an amazing way to save money by slashing your grocery bills, week after week, month after month… to the point where you were saving so much that you could spend on the things you love (guilt free), would you tell others about how you’re doing it?

If you’re Kat Cassidy, the answer is a resounding YES.

For Kat (who is now also known as @livingonaloonie) couponing in Canada had become a way for her to realize the life of her dreams - so she decided to take to social media to teach others how to save too.

But what happened next had her jaw hit the floor, and had her wanting to hide under the covers. Overnight her post on her account, @livingonaloonie, absolutely blew up. The views skyrocketed. The followers flocked in. The comments came fast and furious, and not all of them kind.

All of the sudden, the woman who had always imagined a corporate career outside of the spotlight, was thrust into social media influencer status.

Today Kat joins us to talk about what it’s like to become, and work as a social media influencer (yes, the whole unfiltered truth). And of course, she gives some money saving tips along the way too!

Listen in for the full scoop!
