:thumbsup:Today we are all very busy with our lifestyles and having more responsibilities,however, we can still try to squeeze some time to clip coupons if we had to and had no other choice. If you think about it, you could save a lot of money and more or likely you wouldn't default on not doing it anymore. Try it and maybe you will be happier you did. I never use to use coupons, but I learned from my husband,because he came from a poor family.

This is So random ,but It you live were there is a Kroger. You should obtain a 1-2-3 Rewards card. it is a Kroger plus card with the availability to hold digital coupons and double and triple coupons as well as cash back with some promotions. I was pleasantly surprised with a $5 bonus just for using my card and loading it with cash. No monthly fees when you use the card at least once monthly. I just wanted to share we my FC Fam!!

I agree I can't believe how much money I save now doing coupons.

It is so worthwhile to use coupons. I have been using them for years to match with sales and store/mfg promotions. I have received so many household, H & BA it items that I have been able to rely on my stockpile for years. It's so nice to be able to use my supply of shampoo, shaving cream, razors, body wash, household items, cleaning products etc., without having to shop for these for a number of years.

wow, you folks real make me want to try harder with coupons and saving money.
-
Our local grocery store used to offer "cents off" food for buying your gas there. Now they send coupons in the mail. They're good coupons and I use them, but I think they figure most people won't bother so it will cost the company less than their other program.

agree I get two sunday papers love the cpns everything else is boring. you can sometimes use a walgreens store cpn with a regular cpn and I was just thinking looking at the cpns here on this site that at swagbucks you'll get I think 10 points for every cpn used from that site.

I should try using coupons... A lot of GPT sites have coupon print out, which will not only save but give some points in your account for using it... The major thing stopping me is that I don't buy a lot of stuff and I never used any of the products that have coupons =/

cutting coupons won't make us rich, but sure help to save some money :thumbsup:

Careful to notice if items have an expiration date before stocking up too much. Most deodorants have expiration dates and do go bad after those dates. Shampoos/Conditioners as well as fabric softeners/liquid laundry soaps, lotions...the fragrance tends to change (go bad) and product doesn't work as well after the expiration date. Toothpastes, mouthwash, sunscreen usually has an expiration date. Something alot of people don't realize when they start stock-piling deals and then don't care because the stuff was a "deal". It's not a "deal" if it's expired and not working...

I use coupons all the time. I even email my favorite companies
And ask them to mail me some coupons. I received a lot of great
Coupons and sometimes free products and coupons for free items.

Winn Dixie has electronic coupons loaded on their card, too! I LOOOVE it!

we have coupons to everything, mainly keep them in the console for fast food
-
We love coupons here too. :thumbsup:
-
use coupons every week helps save over time.
-
I do clip coupons, now if I just remember to use them, that's another story! I agree though, it is a good practice to get into!
-
I love coupons, and a little regular time can definitely save you a lot of money. They're great.
-
I'm still trying to figure out how to maximize my savings with coupons. When I go to the store and use coupons, I save a little, but not as much as I'd hoped. Having said that, a savings is a savings. I'll take what I can get. Will definitely be using coupons for a long time.
-
Coupons are good, but I dont often find coupons for the brands that I like.
-
8) I love coupons too. But I've never been able to get my total down to $10.00 or less. I just get a few dollars off. But if I can save any money that's great. My stock pile is getting low. So I've got to get it stocked back up soon.

Clipping coupons has been something I have been doing for a long time. Electronic discount coupons is nice and convenient, but as they continue with a physical copy I will still continue to do this too. At least I get less dispute when doing so.
-
I try to save money by using coupons but most of the coupons are for things that I wouldn't use. We don't buy junk food, canned food , or expensive hair products. So I find very few coupons that I can take advantage of.
-
I don't do much with coupons, but I'm a firm believer in membership discount cards.
It's so much easier to keep track of discounts now that everything is digitized. My local drug store is CVS and they give you the option of adding coupons directly onto your CVS Card, so when you go on and the cashier scans your card, it automatically registers whatever discounts you have. More stores should do it that way!

i clip coupons and save around 300 dollars a month and i dont live where they double the price of the coupons. you have to be diligent and not brand specific.
-
i am just now getting into coupons.need to save some money..
-
Definitely check to see if your local grocery store chain has an app so you can load your coupons on the card as another poster mentioned. That way you get the savings without using up paper and ink from your printer to print them or buying a newspaper. The Kroger app lets you see what coupons you have loaded to the card and let you put those items on your grocery list so you remember to get them. It's well designed.

Sometimes i look for coupons that i use to puchase the product that i use.

The great thing about the store cards, most of them you can load your coupons on, and then if any one in your family stops for something the coupon will still get used. They use the card if you have the actual card or the phone number for it here. They will also on most of them send you store coupons for different things that they see you use. Most of the meat and fresh fruits and vegetables I get come this way.
