Jennifer – I use the coupon database at CouponMom.com so that I don’t need to keep track of the coupons. I plan to do a review of that in the next few weeks with a little tutorial, since the website is hard to get through. But, register with her, and then click on “Grocery Coupon Database by State”. Voila – you can look up the coupons there for specific non-sale items. Hope that helps! –Carrie

I have a question about your filing system! I tried doing a system like yours for several months (where I would just date and file the inserts without cutting anything out), but I found that when I needed a specific coupon for something that wasn’t on a “deals list” I was having to page through booklet after booklet looking for it, which took forever. i.e. I’m going grocery shopping, I know I need tuna fish this week, I know I saw a coupon for tuna fish a few weeks back, but how do I find which insert it is in?! How do you get around that? It’s a great system for when you have a list like yours that tells us exactly which insert a coupon is located in, but for anything else it’s very time consuming. Just curious what you do. Thanks!

Thanks!

Lori – Thanks! I get these books in the mail and use the restaurant coupons. I’m glad to have access to another set online. –Carrie

I save hundreds of dollars every year buy printing local coupons for hair cuts, car washes, oil changes, dance classes, clothing, pet grooming, etc. http://www.SAVEonEverything.com

I also print my coupons and most other things on the back of used paper. I have accumulated quite the stack through work (extra or wrong copies off the copy machine) and school (fliers that are no longer valid or expired)! I just keep two separate piles by the printer and switch when needed!

Jodi – Great tip! I have been known to ask the server at Baker’s Square if I could have the inserts for the papers they often make available to customers. –Carrie

Becky – Great question! Typically, new coupons come out on the 1st of the month. But, then again a couple of times throughout the month they will add a few new ones here and there. I try and highlight them on Pocket Your Dollars, so if you subscribe to this RSS feed you should be kept somewhat abreast. Hope that helps! –Carrie

Just found your website a few days ago, and I love it! Thanks for what you do!

I’m curious, with the couponing websites – how do you know if/when there are new coupons available? Do you just get in the habit of checking them once a week and trying to remember which ones you’ve already printed? It doesn’t like like SmartSource or Red Plum have RSS feeds, although coupons.com does (though I’m at work, and my security policy prevented me from clicking that link, so I can’t tell if the purpose is to update you with new coupons available).

Stop into coffee shops on Sundays and check the community newspaper/magazine bin and a lot of people will leave full inserts. This is where I get the majority of my Sunday ones. Once I found 8 sets (of all three of that week’s inserts) at one Starbucks. I’ve also found one set at a Subway.

I am always amazed at the people that tell me they ‘don’t have time’ to use coupons! HUH? I can’t tell you the last time I paid for a tube of toothpaste! Combining sale prices with coupons = FREE more often than not! I LOOOVE couponing!
