getting started with coupons
Too lazy for coupons?
I have to admit that I’ve always been lazy when it comes to coupons. Clipping coupons seemed like a lot of work for a few dollars here and there, and I didn’t like the idea of going through newspaper after newspaper to find coupons for products I actually wanted to buy.
But wait – clipping coupons got easier!
Little did I know how much the world of coupons has changed! Because of the economy, I decided to take a look at what was available online and I was amazed – using coupons has become a lot easier than I thought it could be! Take Coupons.com:
I was amazed by how easy coupons.com was. You don’t have to spend a lot of time clipping coupons here – just click on the coupons you want and print them out! Here’s an example of how easy it can be:

You just click the box next to the scissors and then click a button marked “print.”
It’s that simple!

I’m quickly becoming addicted to couponing. There’s an entire subculture out there on the web devoted to getting things on the cheap and I’m loving it.!
A great site is:
http://www.iheartcvs.com/
It has CVS coupons, but it also has links to two of the best coupon sites on the internet: SmartSource and Coupons. com.
If you like Betty Crocker and Pillsbury, sign up for their newsletters/coupons at these sites:

The thing about coupons is, you can’t be choosy. My husband loves Grape Nuts for breakfast, but it’s rare to find a Grape Nuts coupon. On the other hand, he likes Cheerios well enough, and there’s a Cheerios coupon almost every week in our Sunday newspaper insert. He’s learning to love Cheerios!
With a little planning, we are routinely saving 25-33% on each grocery bill, and mostly we are eating what we want. Maybe we don’t always get our favorite brand, but learning to be flexible is part of the coupon mind-set!
Thanks for the post!
