I’ve been getting several questions about coupons lately, so I’ve decided to write a series of posts about coupons. Here’s what you can expect to see in these upcoming posts:
- The Basics
- Coupon Organization & Different Methods
- Types of Coupons
- Where to Find Coupons (Online)
- Where to Find Coupons (All Other)
- And More!
In the past, I used coupons sporadically & occasionally, but couponing was just something I never really paid much attention to. About 2 years ago, I found myself in a financial situation where it was essential that I find ways to cut costs. I started doing research in the internet on ways how to save money and I discovered coupons could really have a huge impact on my bottom line. I remember the first time I got something free with a coupon, I felt like I won the lottery! It has been empowering taking charge of how much I am willing to spend at stores, being able to use coupons has been a huge blessing in my life. One of the great things about coupons is that I’ve been able to share my freebies with friends & family and even give them away to local shelters. It’s just plain awesome to be able to share.
One of the important things to know about coupons is that there are a whole lot of variables involved. But don’t be scared, dive in! Couponing is something you just get better at the more you do it. You’ll make mistakes, but guess what, we all do and you’ll learn from them! I hope with this series that I’ll be writing will help you navigate coupons a little bit easier. If you have any questions at all, feel free to email or leave a comment, I’m happy to help! 🙂
Stay tuned!
Have you done the organization blog yet? Any tips on knowing if the sale price at Dillons is cheaper than what you can get at Walmart? I can remember priced very well but really need to figure out how to save. Thank for this site!
No, this series pretty much got away from me. Hopefully one of these days soon, I’ll have time to pick this up again.
Hi again, I just noticed your other question about Dillons. While Walmart does price match, Dillons doubles coupons & in this way they can often beat Walmart’s price. Personally, I’ve shopped at Dillons much more often than Walmart the past few years. Another thing I like about Dillons is they also mark down meat, produce, dairy items fairly often. 🙂
I was just wondering, we were just told the other day that Walmart now doubles coupons….has anyone heard the same or is that false?
I heard of Walmart doubling coupons on 1 day a week in 7 locations only in Utah, but that’s the only thing I’ve heard.
