Coupon Savings

We don't always use coupons when we grocery shop, but when we do, we accumulate them from multiple sources: Newspaper Free Standing Inserts (glossy coupon ads)— we swap unused coupons with several friends; Grocer loyalty card and ads; and several online sources like the ones displayed below. 

Coupons can save you a boodle, but the best ways to save money on groceries are:

1) Going shopping less often (reducing impulse buys)

2) Planning a weekly dinner menu based on the grocery store loss-leaders

3) Writing and sticking to a well planned grocery list

4) Cooking from scratch as much as possible

5) Including left-overs into your weekly menu

6) Cooking meals in larger quantities of a particular meal and freezing half or more for use later in the month.

Give these ideas a try and when combined with coupon savings you'll easily cut your grocery bill in half!

Another great source is Coupons by Answers.com where you can find coupons for thousands of stores and products. It's not just for grocery coupons — you'll save a boodle on just about anything you can imagine.

Another great source that lots of frugal coupon-clipping moms are telling us about is All You Magazine. It's well worth the subscription price—6 issues for $10 / 12 issues for $19.95. There are hundreds of dollars worth of excellent coupons in each issue. We’ve picked up a few copies and agree. It’s one magazine that actually pays for itself.
