Quetion for coupon users and savvy shoppers

Where do you get your coupons? I don't get a newspaper delivered, would I get more coupons if I did? Right now I only get that "Purple Pack" in the mail.

Any tips on getting coupons or savvy shopping tips to share. I'm really trying to lower our grocery bills and not having much success.

But if you don't get the paper, where else can you get coupons from?

You can always go to the store and buy a paper, or several. That's what I do.

Re: Quetion for coupon users and savvy shoppers

we subscribe to weekend only (fri, sat sun) and it's totally worth it.
i woudl forget to buy it otherwise Chat Icon

im the coupon queen.

where do you live? i'll keep you updated of sales and deals.

for starters, waldbaums in commack (jericho) is tripling coupons this week Chat Icon

plus I used the $10 off king kuillen coupon, plus I had a few $3 off pampers, and they were already $6.99 (for the $12 pack, so I got it for $3.99, four packs) plus many 75cent coupons that were tripled to $2.25 off the item. (most items were free or a joke!)
I can go on an on, I do this without thking, so many people say they dont have time for it, but im so used to it, that it;s routine and so simple, and I save hundreds per month.

its fun to see the bill go down as she scans the coupons, the lady behind me in line almost fell over.

Chat Icon Chat Icon

the little things that thrill me now. I have record deals, Ive gotten $5 boxes of cereal for 50 cents, lots of free expensive shampoos, conditions, free or like 50 cents toothpaste toothbrushes (kids character brushes and adult ones)

I save MUCH more than I would make if I had to work a p/t job Chat Icon Chat Icon

my hubby keeps telling me to start a business doing this

I check out brandsaver.com to see when P&G will have their coupons in the Sunday paper so that I remember to grab it.

Re: Quetion for coupon users and savvy shoppers

also several stores do "free after rebate" walgreens does it. a few items per month. top brands, easily $40-$50 a month in itms you may already use anyway.
mail in the receipt and they mail you a check. (or store gift card)
this I havent done too often, but its great !


I havent gotten into the CVS deals, but donna might update us on that.
hey lets start a weekly DEALS Thread, whatdaya say ??

I gather you are talking about websites???
Afullcup.com has target coupons
mommysavers.com was recommended
I posted a similiar question a few months ago. Maybe do a search. I received tons of websites.
