The best way to find deals is to check out our store matchups. Each week we take the ad from several stores and match the sales up with the available coupons. We then post the information for you to use. You can view them by clicking "Find My Store" at the top of our home page. If you are looking for local deals that we don't cover, I would suggest going to Google and typing in the name of your closest city and something like "coupon blog".
There are several great stores to shop at. The BEST stores depend on what region you are in. I love Albertsons, Safeway and Publix. Drug stores like Walgreens, CVS and Rite Aid also have great deals and you can often get free items.
We have created a stock up list with our rock bottom prices for most items you could think of. This includes our super cheap and free items. Click here for the link.
It's very important to have multiple copies of a coupon. This allows you to really stock up on an item when it's free or very cheap. Often newspaper offices will offer "couponer discounts". They will allow you to have several copies of the Sunday paper delivered to your house at a reduced rate. If there is a particular coupon you are looking for, you can purchase multiples from online clipping sites like thecouponclippers.com. You can also print coupons from the Internet. Check out our Printable Coupon Database where we have thousands of coupons listed for you to print from your computer. You can access it by clicking "Print Coupons" at the top of our home page.
Stores will usually have somewhat of a sale cycle. A certain kind of item will be on sale during a particular time of year. We have created a list of these cycles. You can view it here.
If you can devote 1-2 hours per week couponing, you should be able to save a lot of money! I generally save 75%-85% off my monthly grocery bill for my family of 5. As you can image, couponing has helped us tremendously to get in control of our finances and pay off debt. I will also purchase cheap or free items to give to shelters and food pantries in my area. You or others in your community could also accomplish those achievements for yourself, your family and those around you.
My number one tip would be to save your coupons for a sale. Clipping a coupon that is $0.25 off is not going to save you a large amount of money unless you combine that coupon with a great sale or promotion.
I would also like to mention that our book is a great tool that will be able to answer ALL of your couponing questions. It is available for purchase here. Good luck with your project and have a great weekend!
