Do any of you clip coupons? I have been going to product websites, savings from magazines, etc...but don't ever seem to find very many. If you cut coupons, where do you have the most success in finding them?
Apparently there are huge egg coupons, an entire 50 cents off!
Ok, that was catty. OP, not directed to you. It's an old joke with Andrews Gal.
In all seriousness, go online.
Are there blogs or something I should be googling? I've tried going to the grocery store webpages, as well as directly to the products I buy web pages to check for coupons but can never seem to find much.
I like to let other people do the work for me so I read coupon match up blogs/sites. www.afullcup.com is good and has a lot of stores, but you have to be careful because sales might vary by location. I have good luck googling the store and market I'm in along with coupon match ups and it will bring you to blogs that will do the work for you.
As far as where I get coupons, I get them from the inserts in the Sunday paper as well as online sources, and my store website does e-coupons that load to your shopper's card. Typically though I only go to multiple places if I'm interested in a coupon match up I've read about, but I will arbitrarily browse through the Sunday inserts to see if there are any coupons I'm interested in.
I don't use a TON of coupons, but I do get some good deals on things I would already buy. We definitely save a ton of money on health and beauty stuff especially.
I do the bulk of my shopping at Target and I get the most use out of the online coupons they have on their website. I like that they typically have a ton of coupons for their Up & Up brand since most stores don't offer them on their store brand. They also let you use one Target and one manufacturer coupon per item so, partnered with the 5% discount I get from using their debit card, adds up over time.
I also use www.coupons.com but there are usually only a few there for items we use.
I've signed up for coupons on various manufacturer websites as well.
Otherwise, I clip them from the P&G BrandSaver and from other inserts in the newspaper (we don't subscribe to the paper so my parents give me their coupon inserts).
If you have a smartphone, you can download apps for certain stores that pull up coupons. Also, stores like target and BBB will text you coupons regularly. I get a text from target about every two weeks. There's not always something that I buy with a coupon there but when I do, it makes it so easy to just pull it up, have it scanned directly from my phone. Since I always have my phone with me, there's no remembering to clip.
ditto on the newspaper, that's where I find most of them. If you're looking for an "extreme couponing" moment (a cartload of groceries for a quarter) it just doesn't happen. As far as online, coupons.com, redplum.com, and smartsource.com are all good, legitimate ways of printing coupons. Target also offers their own coupons that can be used in stores.
Re: coupons?

I'll have to check what our sunday paper normally does- good idea!
I used to find them online and saved a lot of money but the two computers I destroyed w/ viruses evened out my savings. Be careful!
Good call!
