Since I began couponing years ago, I saved a little bit here and there. Thanks to my mother in law saving the coupons for me.
Since this new "Couponing Craze" began.. I started investigating...
And now I save AT LEAST 50% off my total bill. And where I live this is great because none of the stores around here double coupons.
Plus I have begun a huge stock pile for my emergency food storage!
I do as you see on TV... I have all my coupons clipped and sorted in plastic baseball card holder sheets. I have ads from every store around. I always use 2 coupons on buy 1 get 1 items! I tend to shop ONLY sale items. And I do spend hours matching and comparing and planning my strategy. And it pays off...
Last week for example, my bill total was $168... and I spent a grand total of $53. Plus I received a $5 off coupon on my next trip and gas rewards (at winn dixie)... I just wish we had a store in the area that doubled coupons... I could be spending next to nothing.... ahhh to dream.....
I also broke my order down to use coupons more effectively. Because in last weeks flier for Winn Dixie, it had a $5 off coupon, off of $30 or more. And you could only use it 1 per transaction.. So I just went through 5 times..lol
I may suggest to you visiting these few sites... for printable coupons and deals!
www.Coupons.com
www.moneysavingmom.com
www.redplum.com
I have also learned to go on ebay... and actually buy already clipped coupons... real cheep!
So tomorrow when the coupons come out as you are watching t.v. clip away and save your family BIG BUCKS. I wonder why on earth I never knew this before now...Think of all the money we could have been saving...
