I have Linux Mint on my computer and wondering how I can get Windows on here as well. I saw one saying to use Grub except I have no idea how to use it. Any ideas/suggestions?

You can make two partitions on your disk (three if you want swap partition for ubuntu into a different partition than the OS's).
You install windows on one partition and ubuntu on the other.
I suggest this order because in my experience windows installs his bootloader without asking the user if he wants to, and this would overwrite grub installed by ubuntu.
You can always restore grub, but it's faster if you do not have to!
Suppose you have installed ubuntu and windows and grub, then you boot up ubuntu, open a terminal and type sudo update-grub or sudo update-grub2 (depends on your version).
Now grub should find windows and allow you to boot windows from the grub menu!
