Use a coupon, save a little. LEARN how to coupon, save A LOT!


That is my motto!  Sure, millions of people go to the store, buy a product, use a coupon to save .25 off that product and feel good.  MANY people go to the store, buy TONS of products, use TONS of coupons and save 75% off the retail price of that item and feel GREAT.

Using coupons and couponing are two different activities to me.  Using a coupon means saving just a little bit every once in a while, but most of the time paying full price for most of the items used in the home (food and non food).  Couponing is different.  It means combining a sale, coupons (sometimes more than 1), store rewards, rebates and more to have a final cost as low as possible (with $0 being the holy grail of couponing but 65-75% being average)

I've gotten many many questions about how to start couponing, so this is the first in a series of steps I used to begin my coupon journey!

Step 1: Gather Coupons
Coupons are everywhere.  It's a rare day when I do not get atleast 1 new coupon!  So here are my favorite "gathering places"!

Newspapers
  • I buy 4-6 papers a week but I have 5 people in my family and buy extras to donate to my local homeless shelter and food drives.  I purchase mine at the local Dollar Tree on Sunday morning.  You have to get there early; they go FAST!  
  • I would suggest buying at least 2 papers a week.  This will allow you to buy 2 items on sale with a coupon.  My newspaper money comes out of my food budget.  But even at $20 a month I save WELL over that using coupons!

In store coupons:
  • Lowes Foods puts in store coupons in their flyers occasionally.  BUT they are good for MUCH longer then the ad is!  So keep them! My store doesn't require me to turn the coupon over since it is still good, I just keep my flyer whole and tell them the code on it!
  • Harris Teeter has $10 off $50 coupons on Recycle Bank.  Currently they cost 100 points.  It took me 15 minutes to gain enough points.  Over the course of last month, I earned enough to get 4 coupons!
  • Food Lion occasionally mails out some $ off $$ purchase coupons!
Man. Q in stores:
  • I do not really drink alcohol- but my first stop in ANY grocery store is the beer and wine area.  In my state, NC, alcohol companies cannot put out coupons that require a beer purchase BUT they can put out coupons and/or rebates on meat, produce, ice, water, etc.  I routinely find $10 rebate WYB $10+ of beef or $5 rebate WYB 2 lbs of ribs.  I've found coupons for oranges, lemons, limes, frozen dinners, etc.  They are usually tear pads or coupon booklets.
  • There are always tear pads around stores and "blinkies" those black boxes that stick out of the aisle?  They are a treasure trove of coupons
  • Catalinas that print out after your purchase.  Many people leave them behind but I have gotten free Shutterfly books as well as coupons for completely free items in my stores!
  • Food Lion has kioks where you can scan your card and get in store coupons.  These CANNOT be stacked with man. Q but sometimes I have gotten a free can of veggies or other things like that
Printable Coupons (I suggest you bookmark these pages and visit them every other week or so to see if there is anything new!)

Other sites:
  • Kraft First Taste is an AWESOME place to get coupons for NEW products from Kraft. I often get coupons for completely FREE items plus $ off coupons!

  • My suggestion is to create a new, separate email JUST for all these emails, coupons, newsletters you will sign up for.  If you are Jane Doe- my suggestion would be JaneDoeCoupons@Yahoo.com
Other Places:
  • CHECK the packages!  There were .55 off in the Jello Temptations that was a big sale a while ago- I didn't realize until I had already torn one open :(  I found $2 off coupons in my bags of Purina dog food, inside the wrappers of juice boxes and even a Pampers coupon on my Cheerios!
  • 'LIKE" your favorite companies on Face Book to have access to their exclusive coupons!

Harris Teeter offers discount on Online Shopping!



Being as frugal as I am, I don't like paying $5+ to have someone do my shopping for me (PLUS it's SO fun to find the deals on my own in the store!)

BUT this was a good deal so I thought I would share :)

Here is the text of the email I got today:

"$1.95 fee is back!  Shop as often as you like for $1.95 per order during the months of June, July and August!"

In addition, there is no fee on your first order.  You can use coupons but they are NOT applied to THAT order but rather are applied as a credit to your next one.

My shopping trips today

This morning I went to Walgreens, CVS and Kohls.

Kohls has been emailing me $10 "We've remodeled our store" gifts almost every week for months!  I received one of those and TWO $5 gifts!  This is what I got (3 transactions)

Total Value: $52.09
total OOP: $1.23
Total Savings: 97.65

I got: 3 pairs youth flip flops, 1 pair pantyhouse, 1 headband, 1 t-shirt for $1.23!!!

At Walgreens I had some issues.  First, the manager refused to accept my $1 off the Icy Hot because it was on sale for .99.  He told me that it was coupon fraud!!  I simply explained I did not want that penny back and they could adjust the coupon to accept it for .99.  He refused again.  Instead of arguing with him, I took those items off my order and went to the parking lot to see if their customer service was open. 

their Policy is pretty explicit.  Here is the quote the customer service agent gave me :
In the event that any item's selling price is less than the value of the coupon, Walgreens will only accept the coupon in exchange for the selling price of the item. Coupon redemption can never exceed the selling price of an item and no cash back is ever provided in exchange for any coupons.

She said the manager was incorrect and sent it on to be investigated.  I REALLY wanted that icy hot since my husband goes through it like water!  So I went back in and asked to see a copy of their coupon policy (oh surprise surprise- they don't know where it is!) After talking to the manager, he accepted my coupons would limited my order to 3 (I had 5 coupons and there were at least 10 on the shelf).

This was my total order:

Total Value: $49.32
Total OOP: $3.40
Total Savings: 93.1%
Rewards bacK: $11.97 worth of RR!!!! That's great!

CVS did not go as planned :(  But I rolled with it because we needed Toilet paper (think 3 young kids + lots of playing in the bathroom!)

Total Value: $42.28
OOP: $9.28
Savings: 78% (def. NOT my best trip to CVS)
I got back $8 in ECB

Totals for the day:
Value: $143.69
OOP: $13.91
Savings: 90.3%
Rewards back: $19.97
