I've started using it and it is a pretty easy way to keep yourself sane and avoid a million little slips of coupons (half of which end up being expired by the time I manage to use them). You simply save the inserts each Sunday from the paper and this websites matches coupons that are available each week with the items on sale at the grocery store. You can generate a list electronically of what you want to purchase that shows which ones to clip. The site has a quick video to watch taht was all I needed to get me going.

Since I'm in Canada, I can't take advantage of that part, but I do like the menu planning and shopping list done for me. Plus, all the recipes are on ONE page. It's very user friendly.

Retailer Coupons (Target and Kroger have these on-line. You can add your Kroger ones to your Kroger card. When you swipe it deducts those amounts automatically from your bill.)<br /><br />-Sometimes you can use a man. coupon AND a retailer coupon for the SAME transaction!<br />-Some places accept expired coupons (less than 30 days)<br />-Some places double coupons (Schnucks)<br /><br />It takes about 10-12 weeks for the Man. coupons to come around again, so use it while you've got it if it's something that you know you're going to use (shampoo, shave gel, etc.)<br /><br />Sites you can order coupons from (I know...it's sick that I know this):<br />1. http://www.thecouponmaster.com/<br />2. http://www.thecouponclippers.com/<br /><br />You may also want to check out "Extreme Couponing for Normal People" on YouTube. There are several parts. The user is: SoukupFamily33950.<br /><br />Basically, look for stuff on sale and that you have a coupon for and you get it almost for free (sometimes), but you don't need 700 bottles of ketchup (even if you like ketchup)!<br /><br />The End.Sheenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11330246281515813446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6768865386007166850.post-53014869132559813212011-06-22T14:38:18.175-05:002011-06-22T14:38:18.175-05:00Chris and I saved a ton of money when we meal plan...Chris and I saved a ton of money when we meal planned. I only bought what we needed at the grocery store and didn't meander trying to find other things Walmart was trying to sell me.<br /><br />Then I would only go there when I actually had a list. Now they actually sell meal planners that you can put on your fridge.<br /><br />Coupons are cool, though. I watched a lady who didn't hoard, but knew if she bought baby formula, she could get the money back (like $6) and donate the formula. Win-win. Unfortunately, my non-mathematical brain can't do that sort of planning.TheHousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01532270244428320414noreply@blogger.com
