Money is tight and we all need to eat. Quick tips I’ve learned from couponing
it's best to learn when your local store(s) start/end sales.
learn when restock happens.
Learn your store(s) rules on newspaper coupons and printed coupons. Ask in person or their website. learn how to use coupons from the 2 sites below
Using a coupon, go before or after rush hour.
make a list/meal plan based off the sale and your coupons.
ask for rainchecks when sale products are out of stock. sometimes the people won't even check if the product is out and still give it. but there is a limit of how many you can get.
always check the half off bin. they normally toss in items just for being a crushed box. But do check for the expire date. don’t be shamed to shop at the 99cent store. they accept coupons too
sometimes name brand is better than off brand and the other way around. buy based on what you like. not base on sale/coupon.
When a big sale comes and blank item is 50% off. buy it now! don't buy when you're running out of said item. because when you need said item, it now cost more. sometimes that bag of cookies or juice drink can wait. i haven't brought laundry stuff in 6 months because I brought enough for 2 people at roughly $50. sadly i didn't have snacks for 2 weeks but having clean clothes is better
always check price to amount. sometimes buying a smaller can cost less per .oz and sometimes that goes the same for a larger can.
make an extra social media pages and sign up to your favorite product companies. companies post coupons and contests. i've receieved free product coupons from lays chips (once i got two because they messed up the expire date and everyone couldnt get the product quickly ), bbq sauce, juice, meats and hair products. like i said make a list/meal plan base on sale then check the companies media pages (best to check them every few days too) AND their company websites. search: lays chips coupon.
