re: Official Couponing Thread

I saved $30 the other day while grocery shopping & I was excited lol

but nowhere here doubles coupons

Quoting ♥ Skinee Cracka:" Where was this at? I need to focus on H&B items and stuff like toilet paper. I do great on grocery items, but not so great on these...  "

So you're better at groceries and not that good at health and beauty? I am the total opposite!! I do good with groceries...but not as good as I do health and beauty. This shopping trip took place at Dollar general. I usually shop Dollar General, Walgreens, Target, Shop n Save (on the couponless day) and Kroger. I hate CVS with a passion!!!!

Quoting LysW:" thats a lot of prepackaged food, i wish they did big sales on FRESH stuff... i mean i buy prepackaged stuff if i have too, but ya"

Same here. We're vegan, and it's really hard to do awesome couponing with the products we buy...lol

Quoting I_Need_A_New_Name:" lol... DH did the same to me when we watched that! He looked at me and goes "well what the heck are ... [snip!] ... went to buy one this Wed. and realized I was wrong.   I'm really excited for this Sunday, so I can get a paper and try it out."

Don't expect to run out of the gate saving that much! It usually takes a couple weeks for your coupons to really start showing a big profit. But let me say this.....this Sunday's paper has a great coupon for mens body wash. They will have a $3 off 1 bottle of mens Nivea body wasmu...rf sells at walmart for around 3.04 each...so after coupon its only .04 each.

This Sundays Paper will have around 200 coupons, a total of FOUR inserts

That is still good for not having any doubles!

How effective is a site like this?

We have a walgreens. Where do I find their coupons? Do they double?

I shop at Harris Teeter, CVS & Wal-Mart (for must have only items). I want to try to add in Lowes Foods and Wal-Greens but that will double my workload lol. I do work full time too and I try to coupon on days when my son is with his dad lol.

Quoting Boobtler™ EBFT:" We have a walgreens. Where do I find their coupons? Do they double?"

You can get a coupon book every month from inside the store. You can use their store coupons with coupons you print offline or get out of the paper. They dont' double, but you can still get really good deals if you pair your coupons with your local sales ad. SouthernSavers.com has a link up every week with the sales ads and what coupons to use and how much you will save

I'm at work and can't pull up the site, but I've never used that site. I only print my coupons from free sites such as www.coupons .com or www.smartsource.com

I work full time too...but when we are slow at work....they dont mind if we are on the computer as long as we are still at our desk. This is when I do most of my planning.

Your dollar general carries boogie wipes?

yes! and!!! They were on sale for only $1.00 a pack....I had coupons for them but! The cover girl makeup was on sale for $1.00 each and I had $2.00 off coupons...so I got a $1 credit on each piece of makeup I bought...so ended up getting the boogie wipes for free  

Here is one of my best deals I got   After coupons...sales...and register rewards from Walgreens....I walked away with 15.87 in profit! My husband told me I need to watch my back because the Walgreens police are going to arrest me.
