Started by ybpguide · 9 months ago

  • I have been couponing for the past 20 yrs and must say, i do rather well. I always save at least 60-75 percent of my total bill by using coupons. I also get items that I will be getting for free that we dont use and donate them to the local shelter and food bank. Coupons are a wonderful thing if you use them right. We have a stock pile of the foods we use most so there is no special trips to the store to get something we ran out of.
    Keep up the good work. It really does pay off in the long run.
  • Really a fantastic post about online coupons..! Thanks.
  • Coupons are great! Why pay full price for anything? Now Kroger has teamed with Proctor and Gamble to offer uploadable coupons linked to your KrogerPlus Card. No Kroger near you? try www.shorcuts.com allows you to upload coupons to your grocery card. If you can't find a coupon code for online purchases, consider cash back rewards from fatwallet.com. Keep up the savings!
  • Another cash back site is ebates.com. And I just got hip to a site that has free shipping codes for over 800 stores: freeshipping.org. Check it out! Gotta love free shipping...

My girl and i are the coupon princess's! i love love love saving money on everything! it brings joy to my spirit. i know we are all kinda "career women now" lol and we should check out the coupons on clothes as well. Lerner's NY has the bomb on coupons. i.e. spend $75 get $25 off with the coupon even on those clearance items that are 14.99 with an additional 60% off redlines! Sign up for their emails! Also here's a nice site that my coworker told me about. they have every type of coupon imaginable from clothes, to food! YIPPEE! happy saving ladies!

  • Hi, thanks a lot for sharing. I remember seeing that Oprah episode myself! As a mom, I usually use online coupons for my shopping. And when I have an urge to buy something unnecessary, I will decide not to - that is, if I don't find a promo or discount code for that.

    CHeers!
  • Thanks for the tips. I personally like to check www.allfreecoupons.com and www.slickdeals.net as well.
