  • Your lists will display in the middle of the page
  • Facebook has already set up a few categories
  • Click "Create a list" on the TOP (towards the RIGHT)
  • Give your list a name such as "Deals" or "Couponing"
  • on the TOP RIGHT under "On this list" - click in the box that says add friends to list
  • type in the name of the couponing sites you want to follow (****NOTE: you need to have already clicked "Like" on each of their Facebook pages 1st - do this by going to their website and looking for the Facebook link - may just be an "F" on home page - click on the link and when the Facebook page pops up click on "Like" in the square at the top of the page)
