Dollars & Sense - Shopping

Combine your coupons with sales!

I clip coupons for items that I buy on a regular basis and items that I would buy if I could get them for a really cheap price or even free. You would be surprised at how many items go on sale at your local retailer within 1-4 weeks from the time a coupon for that same item is distributed. I combine my coupons with sales when possible to maximize my savings. I also hold on to my coupons until the day they expire, because you never know when you will run into a great deal!

Dollars & Sense - Saving & Finances

5.00 / 1 votes

In the Time of a Recession

I spend hours collecting coupons from newspapers, the Internet, magazines and anywhere I can find them. In the average month, I save $175 to $250 on food and household items. The savings are used at the end of the month to buy things of want instead of need. Movies, dinner out, makeup, things that normally get a second thought on buying are now in the budget with the savings from coupons.
