How to carry your coupons

Everyone needs to know that carrying your coupons to every store you go to is something that needs to be done for you to catch the savings.  You can bet your bottom dollar you will miss a saving if you don't! The thing is is how to you carry all those coupons with out going insane trying to find the one you want?  I have started out with just a little coupon holder and I can really say that it is the biggest pain in the butt with couponing!!  I am currently thinking that I will be purchasing a binder and a few of those baseball card inserts n order to organise all the coupons correctly nd be able to get to them better!  There are some sites which will allow you to purchase them already made.  For example....,
http://www.couponorganizerpro.com/

Or you can just learn how to make your own.  It looks as though this is the cheaper was to go.
Here's a link to where you can learn to make one.

WELL THESE ARE NOT ALL THE THINGS i HAVE COME ACROSS BECAUSE i AM STILL CREATING MY LIST AND HUNTING OUT SOME MORE COUPONS, BUT IT'S A START! ;)

Bounty paper towels!!!

So I was told that Bountys Facebook page gives away 5,000 $5.00 coupons every Friday!  Not bad because and 8 pack of Bounty runs for $8.00 w/c it would be just $3!!!!!

Hoping for new savings!

So I started going through this weeks fliers and noticed that the coupons that had come out two weeks ago are just now starting to go on sale at the stores.  I went ahead and did some research on that thought and found out that this is pretty intentional!  Ha ha...I got them.  So I have four Tostino pizza coupons each for .55 off and the pizzas are on sale this week for .88 a piece!! DEAL! Also-more hot dogs to come because Carnival has their bar s hot dogs on sale for .48 a piece and I still have three coupons left that are $1/ 1  Oh this is great!  There are also some more bargains I caught, but it's late and I'm finally tired.  I will share some more tomorrow!  Night folks.

My hubby can do it well too!

So I sent my husband out for a couple of things the other night.  Only two of the objects I had coupons for.  When he cam back he had alot more than I asked and actually only spent 7.65 on every thing!!!   He got everything basically free exceot one bag of charcoal.  All because Walmart honors the price of others!!!!  It pays to shop around.

Learning is exciting when you're saving money!

Ok, so I have had some people ask me for tips on how to save money when they do their shopping (grocery). So I said I would begin to list some tips that I have come across along with some websites. I have learned it does take some time to get this "stock" pile built up and it does not happen all at once. But can you imagine if it piled so high you could and would share with families, friends and people you may not even know because you DO have enough. Anyways, this is my goal.

First tip is to be patient! I was actually a bit disappointed when I only saved sixty someodd dollars the first time, but I have heard from people this was actually a really good savings for the first time.

#2 Not ever day is a shopping day and you will not go to the store and get what you want all the time!!

#3 Don't throw those flyers out!! You will need them to compare prices with ever store. That store you don't like might actually have something good there-CHEAP!

#4 Even though you may not use a product, but you know you will get it cheap or for free-Get it! Some one you know may need it or you could donate it or it may give you point on your shopping card(cvs).

#5CLIP,CLIP,CLIP!!! ClIP ALL OF THE COUPONS!!!!!

#6 get something to store your coupons in. I got one of those little coupon holders and it actually is way to small. I am going to try to get a coupon book instead because you can organise it better and find the coupons you need fast.

#7 PLAN AHEAD!! Write down what you are going to get at each store you go t. Seperate the oupons with paper clips so you know which store the go to with the list of things you will get there.

#8 Don't just go to one store. You will not get the deals if you limit yurself to just one store! At the lest have about four store to go to!

#9 Research you stores coupon policies and find out if the do double or triple coupons. Follw this link below to see krogers policy for coupons...,

http://dealseekingmom.com/kroger-updated-digital-coupon-policy/

And I think Albertsons will triple.

#10 Place the words "printable coupons" in the google search bar and watch what you come up with!

#11 Join blogs on couponing because plenty of people will list good deals with the link for the coupons for them. They will show you how to get the deal also. Here is a link below to some of the blogs I have...,

http://thekrazycouponlady.com/

http://www.weusecoupons.com/

#12 RESEARCH,RESEARCH,RESEARCH!!!!

#13 On facebook you can search for a product name and hit the like button and they will preview and coupons or specials they might have every week on you home page!! Social ntworking is a GREAT place to find coupons!!!

#14 You will be giving out your email. Do this even if you don't want to because they will send you all kinds of deals!! Check them daily!

#15 Last but certainly NOT least....,CHECK YOU EXPER. DATES EVERY WEEK by cleaning out you coupon book! There's nothing like havding an expired coupon to the casier hoping to get an awesome deal and then seeing it go down the drain! :)



I hope this help a little to start andI will list more things later as I learn them orrrr maybe you could comment on some things you learn to show me! I don't know how to do ALL of it yet! It's a work in process, but in due time will be worth it!

Some links to some site for coupons. I can't list them all cause there are soooooo many!! Well good luck and don't forget to share your saving with me!!!

I know that's alot, but when you're saving it really isn't!  I hope some of this information helped you a little.  I look forward to sharing some more as I save.  Until then-Happy hunting!
