Using Coupons Effectively: Websites

I was going to write all of this information myself, but then I found a wonderful website that explains using  coupons and provides shopping strategies for each store.  The site is Southern Savers and its creator has set up a site that really does it all.

Southern Savers does provide links to coupon services, but the three big ones are Coupon.com, Redplum and Smart Source.  Just Google them, click on the coupons you want, then hit the print coupons button.  All of the coupons you selected will print at once, three coupons per page.

Each of these coupon services will ask to place a cookie on your computer.  You have to say yes for the coupons to print.  If you are not comfortable with this, then stick to the coupon inserts in the paper.

It helps to buy a small paper cutter for coupon cutting.  You can stack the pages of coupons you print from a site and cut them all at once; they line up beautifully.  Have your children help when you are clipping from paper inserts.

We'll talk about organizing coupons another time.

God bless,
Pam

  1. Hi Pam..Just joined as a follower
    Looking forward to reading your blog.
    I am Debbi /53 and I am from Ohio and live near the largest Amish settlement in the US. Holmes and Wayne county in Ohio
    I also have several Amish friends who I barter with who live right in my area. We also have a lot of Mennonites who live around us also.
    I'd admire the way they live.
    Hope to become good friends!
