Coupon + Sale = Savings

Members Were Sparked

I only use my coupons when things are on clearance or on sale in the grocery stores. You can usually combine the two discounts for added savings.

MORE INFORMATION:
Something you want to start tracking is your "bottom line price" for certain items. If you're not brand specific, you can go even lower and save more!

I have become quite the coupon person. To get coupons for healty foods, go to that companies website and tell them you are trying to get healthy and wanted to purchase their product and was wondering if they could send you some coupons. If you subscribe to the Dole.com website, you can get coupons for bagged salad and fruits. The same goes for Kelloggs (I love special K) and yoplait yogurt.

I do that a lot. However my frustration is that now that I'm making the transition to no processed foods, and more whole foods, I can't find coupons. Coupons don't exist for produce. Pretty much the only thing I find a coupon for is something that's frozen, in a box, or highly processed. It works for my hygiene stuff quite well, but I'm frustrated there aren't more coupons for healthy alternatives. There are some, but they're not as abundant.

BOGO with a coupon

I like to use coupons.com to find relevant coupons, then couple them with Publix or CVS Buy one, get one free sales. If you print two of the same coupon, you can even use it on the free item! This gives incredible savings! Example: I used two $0.75 off coupons during a B1G1 sale for Waffles ($2.15) Final price $0.65 for TWO BOXES!334
