Coupons, Coupons, Coupons, what to do with coupons! This is another big way I like to save money. Groceries can be very expensive, so I do everything I possibly can to save on my grocery bill. Today I will give you several ways to save with coupons. I went grocery shopping a couple of days ago and saved over $15.00 dollars just by using coupons.

There are several ways to use coupons:

The first way is to cut out those coupons from your Sunday News Paper. If you do not get the paper just ask a friend or neighbor for the Sunday ads. If this doesn’t work go to your local library for the Sunday paper.

The second thing I do is check out magazines for coupons. Plus I cut all the coupons off the boxes of cereal and baked goods.

The third thing I do is check out your local grocery stores for store coupons. Some grocery stores even have double coupon days. This is where you can save big. I have gone into the grocery store and bought cereal for under a dollar a box because of double coupons and the cereal being on sale at the same time. My tip is to go into the store with the intent to only buy the sale items and use my coupons to save big.

My most important site I visit each week is Coupons. Com. Just print off the coupons you want and save them. Don’t be afraid to print off more than you need each week because some last for more than one week before they expire.  This is one way I get to try different products that I wouldn’t have normally tried before.

Here’s my big thing I like to use. I used to use a little coupon container, but I found this very hard to sort through all the coupons. Now I decided to make it easier. I bought myself a picture album with slots for pictures, this is where I put my coupons. I label each page according to categories like meats, dairy, juices, soups, paper, plastics and more. When I am in the grocery store I just flip the pages and find the coupon items I am looking for. I am much more organized and able to find what I am looking for. Each week I take out any coupons that are expired and put new ones in.

This is just another way I save on my grocery bill. Like I said I ended up saving over $15.00 dollars just using coupons that I cut out of magazines, Sunday ads, off of box goods and from Coupons.com. I like the comment I get from people in the store saying I am organized and the looks I get from the check- out staff when I give them a handful of coupons. Yes, organizing and cutting coupons take time but it is well worth the effort when you see the savings.
