who coupons
« on: February 28, 2013, 05:56:22 am »
I like to coupon because i save lots of money i am still learning but since i have started using coupon a have gotten so many shampoos, conditioners, razors for both me and my husband deodorant etc, for either cheap or free but i try to go for the free thing lol.. i do not want to waste money and if coupons can do that for me u bet ima try and get more coupons just to get more items although coupons are great its still hard to find good deal where i live..

I absolutely love couponing myself.  I get some sort of euphoric rush when I'm leaving a store and I read on the receipt just how much I've saved.  I found a freebie site.. start sampling.  I tried a sample of Seattle's best coffee on there (It was enough for 3 pots of coffee) And it came with a $2.00 coupon.  I spent $3.78 on a bag of decent quality coffee at wal-mart the other day.  I was so happy with myself you would have thought I'd won the lottery.

There are many blogs that do coupon match-ups now... you choose your store and they show you what is on sale PLUS where to get an additional coupon for more off.  It is hugely helpful.  Also, many places (Including Winn Dixie!!!!) have coupons you load on your card and you don't have to bring all that paper to the store.  I love it.

Yes been doing it for years.Get the sunday papers and look at coupons.com. A great site to buy and trade coupons is Refundsweepers also like the Krazycouponlady. We can't double here in ca but folks that can really save the money.

I use coupons sometimes.  But I don't ever want to be like those extreme couponers.  You don't need 100 jars of mustard!  lol

I coupon when I can, but I won't exactly go out of my way to make a plan for it when I go shopping.

There was another thread on this just last week.  I do use coupons and save quite a bit at the store.  I've been doing it for many many years.

I use coupons when I can. But a lot of times I find that the generic brands are cheaper than the name brands with the coupon. I guess it varies depending on what area of the country you are in. I do use Krazy Coupon Lady to find the best deals, store by store. And also to get heads up on coupons, since I don't get any coupons in the Sunday papers. I go to the library to get the ones I need.

I wish i was as good at couponing as those people on extreme couponing. I usually just save a little here and there which is fine.

Yes!! I have been couponing for about 2 years and I love it. I am not an extreme couponer tho and i normally only shop for Toiletries. I Stick mostly to the drugstores and it has helped so much to have amy little stockpile and not have to run to the store for a tube of toothpaste every time it runs out. Before couponing I would spend about $50 a month on one bag of stuff now I bring home several bags and spend half that amount a month. :)

Where do you shop? Most of the freebies or even money makers I get are from Drugstores. You have to combine Sale/promotion,Store coupon and Manufacturer Coupons :)

Totally agree.  I use coupons for items that I would have purchased anyway.  Print most of mine from internet sources and use a couple of the many sites that do matchups so I know who to combine with sales to get the best deal or even free like you mentioned.

I use coupons, but sometimes it's hard to find them for items that I like.  I wish there were more coupons for healthy type foods.
