Coupons save consumers hundreds of dollars a
year. Smart shoppers take the time to look for, cut out, file, and use
coupons on a regular basis. You may be surprised how much money you can
save in the long run.
Coupons are easy to use when organized efficiently. Coupons should be
put into groups such as cereals, fruit, pizzas, paper goods, pet food,
baby needs, and anything else that you need frequently. With this
strategy, you can easily plan to save money each time you make your
grocery list. Simple rules for smart shopping:
1. Always check the prices of similar brands. Another brand may be less
expensive even with the coupon. Don’t buy the brand-name item just to
use the coupon.
2. If your retailer doubles the face value of your coupons on a certain
day, plan to do your major shopping on that day.
3. Always shop with a list and the appropriate coupons based upon what
your family uses the most.
4. When filing your coupons, put those with the earliest expiration
dates in front so you won’t forget about them.
5. You can really save if you combine the SALE with the coupons!
How to store your coupons:
You can organize your coupons in an orderly manner for half the cost of
an off-the-shelf organizer. Simply buy a 3 - 4 inch three ringed binder
and about a dozen plastic baseball card sheets. You can put tabs on the
sheets to identify different categories of coupons.
Seek out your coupons online and you’re sure to save time. NO more are
the days when you had to scour the newspaper, search for usable
coupons, clip each one individually, and then sort them so that they
could be easily found. No sireee. We live in a digital world. Using
coupons can be as simple as typing in a code upon checkout at your
favorite online retailer. This is known as a “coupon code” or a
“promotional code”.
* Go here here to search for valuable coupons that you can print
straight from your computer. You’ll quickly be on your way to becoming
the smartest shopper in your neighborhood.
