Why I Started Using Coupons for Groceries

In today's economy everyone is looking for ways to save. Since a big part of our budget goes toward groceries it makes sense to start the savings there. There are many types of coupons available and from many different sources. Coupons can also be found in inserts of the Sunday paper and depending on your area other days as well.

Print coupons (Coupons that you can print off the internet) has become quite popular. Some products on the shelf have free coupon offers and a certain amount off. If you ever have a complaint, write to the address on the label and many times you'll get a letter from the company with free coupons. Sometimes manufacturers give out coupons at the store and some stores give coupons when you cash out at the register. Coupons can still be found in magazines.

Another little known source of coupons is online services who don't actually sell the coupons because it's not allowed but in most cases you pay for their service to ship and handle. Generally there is a quick turn around of the mailing because savvy shoppers watch sales flyers and order coupons to use before the weekly sale ends.

Although this isn't a coupon rebate shopping is another great way to get discounted or free products.

Years ago when my husband was injured on the job I had to learn ways to cut expenses and this is how I did it. It's amazing how much you can save if you shop sales and use coupons. In today's economy any saving is a big help.
