I live in Western Pa and I don’t see how it is possible to do the extreme couponing like I see it on the shows. I have a pile of the Red Plum adds and Source One adds and If I was to go through them all right now I would only come out with maybe4 or 5 coupons to use. We are living in a one income home and could use all the help we can get right now. 1/10 of what I see on the shows would be a great help.

I am just beginning to coupon!! I’m very excited to learn how to save money for my family however, trying to “stock Pile” my pantry is difficult with a very limited budget… I even stop the other “coupon Ladies” in the supermarket to pick their brains on savings.. Still a bit confused about catching the small print and doubling up on values… My mato at this point is “I’m going broke saving money” Lets fix that!! Looking forward to the chat!!!•*¨*•.¸¸❤¸¸.•*¨*•

Hi, I’m new to couponing, and was wondering – do you use any mobile phone apps like ‘weekly ads & sales’ to help you save money on groceries?

Love the site! Two things to make the site better: Have links to web site for each store – to see the item in the ad. Have searchable area in coupon printing section. Or have link for a coupon to go directly to that coupon.

Do you find that it is more useful to buy store-brand items rather than using coupons for brand-name items? I have found that some weeks it is more useful and cheaper to purchase store-brand items rather than buying name brand – depending upon what I need that week of course! Kroger has great store brand items – sometimes they even have coupons online for generic brand items!

I’m just beginning to use coupons and your site. I didn’t save the coupon insert from 1/15, so where would I find it to print?

My rule of thumb is, if the store brand is cheaper and I have to buy it right that second, I’ll buy it. But many times, if it is BOGO (like Publix) you can use two coupons for two items, they will double if under 50 cents and you will come out ahead. I usually only pay $1.50 for a big box of cereal using that method. Publix also accepts coupons from listed competitors. For example, the Publix I shop at takes Kroger, Food Lion and Target coupons, even if they are printed out from the internet (Target has GREAT internet coupons) OR the coupon printer at the Kroger or Target registers. I don’t mind Kroger, but their “10 for” deals are often too much for me to keep track of.
