Do you use coupons?

And if you do, do you feel as if you really save $$? Where do you get them?

TIA

Re: Do you use coupons?

Yes! I am a big coupon clipper! Even if I send DH to the food store, I make him take coupons for the stuff that is on the list. I also try to do the shopping at King Kullen because they usually have the $5, $10 or $15 coupons in the circular that comes in the purple pack and they also double the $1 coupons.
We saved $20 on groceries this week!!!

The trick is to not clip coupons on stuff that you normally have no intention of buying because then you are really spending extra money on something that you wouldn't normally get

Re: Do you use coupons?

I do. Get them in Sunday Newsday! I save alot of money & I also shop at King Kullen as well!!!

Re: Do you use coupons?

Do I use coupons? Are you kidding? I use coupons all of the time. I don't see why I should pay full price for the exactly the same product or service.

Re: Do you use coupons?

Yes, all the time! And the grocery stores double/triple them, so every little bit counts and helps!

I get them from Sunday's paper.

Re: Do you use coupons?

Yes, I definitely use them, but only on items I'm already planning to buy or already need. I won't buy extra just because there is a coupon. However, if the price works out better, I may buy from one store over another if one store has a coupon that will save me more money.

Re: Do you use coupons?

I definitely do... I do it to justify getting the paper delivered each weekend!

Re: Do you use coupons?

DW is very organized with her coupons. Most of them are from either the Sunday paper, or the inserts in the local papers that get dropped off in our yard (Pennysaver, etc). She saves a LOT of money. She'll often pay half or less of the original amount (many stores break out the full total, then subtotals after coupons and discounts)

Re: Do you use coupons?

I do but honestly, I think they make me spend more money because I wind up buying things I wouldn't normally buy because I have a coupon.
I do better with the sales in the store instead.

Re: Do you use coupons?

I do - I have saved a good amount of money doing it as well.

I do sometimes spend more though buying more of something we don't necessarily need at that point if it's on sale as well (DH makes fun of me for it).

Re: Do you use coupons?

I use them all the time for everything that I buy.

Re: Do you use coupons?

yes a lot and I save hundreds!

When CVS used to take their coupons in multipes along with regular ones I saved a few hundred a month.

Target combines theirs with regualr ones, so If they have a good coupon, I can get a lot of products next to free.

If I have a good $1 coupon at King Kullen its $2.00...I can save $50-$75 there.

Re: Do you use coupons?

I use coupons whenever I can. I get them from the circulars that are delivered to my door.

Re: Do you use coupons?

I use them, but I also find that a lot of times the generic version of something still costs less than a name brand with a coupon. There are very few products that I notice a difference between generic and name brand. I usually buy name brand dairy products (for some reason I can taste the difference) but most other things I buy generic.
I get my coupons from teh Sunday paper.

Re: Do you use coupons?

Yup I use them. I get them from the paper on Sunday also

Re: Do you use coupons?

I clip the coupons in the paper and also the ones that come in the mail. Once a week I go through the mail. If I findany coupons I put them in a envelope. I put the envelope in the glove box in the car. Then if I stop at BBB, Kohl's or Macy*s I have the coupons with me. I was able to buy dh $130 jeans for $28 I was the happiest person ever in Macy*s

If I am going out to buy something specific I will type the store name and the word coupon in Google. We were able save so much money in Lowe's because of a printable coupon I found for 15 or 20% off

Re: Do you use coupons?

Yes, all the time! But I only use them for things that I would have been buying anyway... otherwise, you spend more money. the other day i saved $8.00 just from coupons from the ciruclar and i would have been buying those things anyway.

I clip them from the SUnday paper or sometimes if you go on-line, they have specific coupons for stores like NY and Company , CVS, places like that--chains always have coupons circulating out there.

DH and i bought the entertainment book this year and we've already saved at least a $100.00 the deals in there are amazing, especially if you like to go out to eat. We usualyl try to do a date night every week or so and the entertinament book has places to buy one entree get the other free.

Re: Do you use coupons?

DH and I go through the coupons in the sunday paper. We are able to save money especially when the supermarkets double or triple the coupons value. We do, from time to time, end up buying some items we wouldnt normally buy when a coupon pops up for it.

Re: Do you use coupons?

I usually use the $5 or $10 coupons that come in the King Kullen paper in the mail. But, I also like using Internet coupons from smartsource.com . The first few times I used them at KK, they looked at me kind of funny and said they only accepted SmartSource coupons. I told them it came from SmartSource's web site and the bar codes on them scanned just fine into their system. They agreed to take them and now I use them regularly without a problem

Re: Do you use coupons?

Yes, I do, and it absolutely saves me money. I get them from the Sunday paper, and generally only clip the ones for things I was going to buy anyway.

Re: Do you use coupons?

I love CVS coupons and the Extra Bucks sales. I also keep coupons if they are for something I would use. I don't buy things just because I have a coupon. Also, the best place for coupons is on the net. There is a great website called Afullcip.com where people share coupons.

I ALWAYS use a coupon when I am ordering online. You can save SO much just by googling the store name and "coupon" before checking out. I bought a dress on AnnTaylorLoft.com this weekend. It was listed as $79. The site offered 25% off. I added another coupon for 20% off and free shipping. Dress came down to $44 including tax.

Re: Do you use coupons?

I use coupons! Always look for the king kullen ones :)

Re: Do you use coupons?

we don't get the paper delivered, but if i work on a sunday, i always clip coupons out of the circulars in the papers... plus i am a huge fan of the $10 off coupons for king kullen that come on fridays in the mail... super stop and shop honors them

Re: Do you use coupons?

Yes at Waldbaums. They take competitors coupons. This week King Kullen had $15 off $100 or more and I used it there!

Re: Do you use coupons?

love coupons! use them all the time
