About 2 weeks ago I began clipping coupons. I had heard about www.couponmom.com (this is the site I go to the most) … people were clipping coupons and matching it with their weekly grocery flyer and saving a bundle. There seems to be a pretty large selection of coupons. You just check the ones you want and they print out.
A few other great sites are; www.coupons.com , www.couponcabin.com , www.retailmenot.com . Another favorite is http://printable-coupons.blogspot.com/2005/10/grocery-coupons.html
I found a fantastic coupon at www.giveabowl.com for Purina pet food. You get a $4 coupon off any size bag and they donate $1 to the animal shelter of your choice. I went to Dollar General and bought a bag of cat food and with my coupon I only paid 25 cents!
One thing not to forget is to go through the coupons from the Sunday paper. There are tons of great coupons there! I also look in my magazines and find several.
I’m just getting started with the coupon thing but so far I’ve noticed considerable savings. My last big trip to the grocery store I bought enough to make meals for the next 2-3 weeks and I filled up 1 ½ carts. My grocery bill was… $172!
I wish I could say that I only need to go to the grocery store every three weeks but I still find I’m running to buy the staples each week such as bread and milk (not surprising with 3 growing boys) As long as I just buy those needed items I do pretty good.
I’m sure there are tons of great coupon sites out there so if you find any let me know. Good luck shoppers!
