Stacey Patterson says
My best couponing tip would have to be only CUT out or PRINT out the ones you are REALLY going to use. I cut or print out some really good ones that are free or ALMOST free to give them a shot. But you are going to become too overwhelmed it you cut or print everything and really don’t have any intention of USING it. 🙂

The only thing I really do now is take ads to my grocery store and price match then use my coupon on top of it! It takes some time in the grocery store that I always dont have to spare, but in the end it ‘pays’ off!

The tip that comes to mind is be organized. Which I am not so thats why I need this.

My tip is to leave the kiddos and husband at home. Without other people adding things to your cart it is much easier to stick to your list. And of course don’t go shopping when you are hungry… I know that tip has been around the block… but it is so simple and soooo true!

Ivonne S. says
I am not sure if mine is a tip, but I practice a lot of control by only getting what is on sale and I have a coupon for. I believe in stockpiling so that I only pay the best price I can for all my purchases. I am always trying to walk out of the store with great savings so makes it easy to avoid picking things up along the way!
Trudy says
The one thing that I do to help me remember a coupon is to put an star (*) next to it on my list. This may not be a huge tip but it sure has helped me remember that I have a coupon for the item. This is especially helpful if it is a stor coupon.

Jenn @ Beautiful Calling says
Not a lot of tips here since I don’t do a lot of couponing. So I guess this really isn’t an extry except to say that if I did, this looks really reall cool!
(most of our Canadian coupons are for things that I don’t usually purchase anyway. When I do have the opportunity to use a coupon, I also do a little happy dance! LOL)

Make sure you know your stores’ coupon policies. Some stores in my area double coupons up to $.50, some triple up to $.50, and some stores only take coupons at face value. Some stores will only double 2 identical coupons. Knowing each store’s policy can help you use your coupons most effectively!

My couponing top would be to make a list, coordinate coupons with the list BEFORE heading out to the store.
THEN, if I don’t want to carry around the BIG BOOK OF EVERYTHING….it’s ok…I have the coupons for what I NEED…and maybe i’ll stick to that plan!
Thanks…
what a neat giveaway!

My best couponing tip is to cut everything and bring everything. I tried to simplify things by just cutting and bringing the coupons I needed but I always end up finding something that I didn’t know I needed at the time and then the coupon’s at home.

my best coupon tip is to subscribe to blogs that give you all of the coupon matchups. Those blogs have saved me so much time and energy. It doesn’t get much easier than that when they tell me the coupon to use to save the most money and what paper it came out of or where I can print it from.

Once you start you stay addicted to it. You must you have to do is stay on top of the sales. Be sure and look at them as soon as they come out. And track your saving…It is always rewarding to see how much you are saving.

If you get coupon inserts in your newspapers etc. clip right away 🙂 If I don’t, the newspapers accumulate 🙂

My only tip is when bringing coupons to the store DO NOT LEAVE THEM IN YOUR POCKET. You only save money if you use them. I’m tired of bringing them and not using them. I’m also a fan on The Couponizer. Pritbuggs@sbcglobal.net
kari says
Remember to use them! (I frequently forget — maybe an organizer would help?)
Judy says

My tip: make a list, check it twice! (Sorry, I couldn’t help the seasonal comment!) I check multiple blogs – local AND out of state – before I go shopping to make sure I don’t miss a deal or a coupon match-up. Then I put the list and coupons together in an envelope-size accordian file (sorted by store) with store cards, ECBs and RRs. I keep my reusable bags in the car (trunk) for the stores that give credit AND to help the environment. The last thing I do when unloading from shopping is to replace the bags in the car so they will always be there when I need them!
tinap says
Make lists and pull your coupons first. This will save time at the store.

Denise Wykle says
make sure to check your coupons for exp dates before going to the store.
Leanne says
My best coupon tip would be to match up coupons with ads before going shopping, use the internet and take advantage of all the printables that are out there and to always take your coupons with you shopping. You never know what hidden deals you will find!
Thanks for the chance!!
Leanne says
I follow along with google reader 🙂
Kristin says
Clip them immediately and store them all in the same place. Try to organize them so that you can find them easily when you are in the store.
Lawanna says
Like others, I pair coupons with sales to maximize savings….but one that that’s really helped me is to have 1 place where I keep the coupons that I’m going to redeem. When an item goes into my cart, it’s coupon gets put into an envelope marked “REDEEM.” Then at the checkout, I just empty the envelope. No more worries about whether I got all the coupons or not. And the cashiers like it too. Happy cashiers, make it a happier shopping experience.
Sammy says
My best tip is to match coupons with ads and then plan your list (and meals) off the sales. Also, read blogs! There are so many blogs that do all the hard work for you and find printable coupons so all you have to do is click and print!

Angela says
My husband goes with me to the grocery store on double coupon days. I make a list of the things I need from other sites that have hot deals, paste them into MS Word and pull all needed coupons. When we get to the store I am the “coupon wifey” (courtesy of my husband). When put a coupon item in the cart, I say, “Coupon Hubbs.” This is the cue that the coupon has to be given to the cashier. Best of all, my husband said he actually likes to go grocery shopping with me! ; )
Jamie Jimenez says
I have a system I use for my coupons but this looks so much more fun and organized!
Diane says
My tip – When shopping at Walgreens have a plan of action. I always have more than one transaction, so while at home, without pressure, I plan each transaction. I include what coupons I have, the amount they’re for and include any register rewards. I then total everything so I roughly know how much each transactions should cost. It helps me find mistakes.
Trish Rowell says
wow this looks so fantastic. I am very new to couponing and I try to make sure I print out as many coupons for items I am in need of as I can
thank you
Mama K says
I could SO use this! I guess my biggest tip would be to take advantage of all the coupon matching blogs and sites on the web. Someone has done all the work matching, you just have to find the coupons and keep them organized.
Mama K says
I fanned them on Facebook.
ashley hudson says
My best tip is to check coupon forums for stores that you shop frequently and to make an list of items that you want to purchase. Then look for your coupons so that everything is set for the trip to the store.

My best tip is to set aside time once a week to do your clipping, sorting and planning. I use Sunday afternoon because it’s the slowest time in our house. In about 2 hours, I can clip inserts, sort into categories and pull expired coupons. Then I take about another hour to make a shopping plan based on the inserts.
Ileana says
I’d love to be more organzied!
Kristie says

My best couponing tip is ‘just do it’. So many people want to coupon, but make so many excuses why they don’t. My advice is just give it a shot and see how much you can save.
angie jurs says
Being organize with your coupons by knowing what you have. Try to plan meals for about 3 days. This way you dont have food that goes to waste and you save more knowing you used coupons.
Chelsee Bendtsen says
I am addicted to couponing. My best tip is to be organized. Don’t go without a list and checking out ads/sales early…you’ll be in there forever. Also I do a lot better without my kids…I always end up buying extra treats or fun things when they come with me…lol 🙂
Lisa Q says
My best tip is to be organized and don’t buy something just because you have a coupon.

My best tip is to save all of your coupons even the ones you might not use — you never know if there will be a sale to make the item free or you can always trade them w/ someone else.
Please enter me in this contest. My current coupon organizer is falling apart and its a big disaster trying to search for the right coupons.

I am extremely new at couponing and would love to have the Couponizer! I spent about and hour in Walgreens today b/c I was searching for the right coupons in my envelope full of cut out coupons! It was horrible! It does help me to check out all of the different couponing blogs to see the deals out there and then just cut and paste the deals I want to use in a Word document. That way I have the process there in front of my while I am at the store!
