Alot of people have asked me where they begin? Where do they get coupons? How do I do what I do? My response is by using a 4 step coupon plan. Here's how it goes:
Step #1 - Coupons: Where to get your coupons? There are several different ways to get coupons. The most popular way is the Sunday newspapers. The papers contain several inserts, Red Plum, Smartsource and P&G. Each of these inserts carry a good amount of coupons. Each paper is $2.00 and can be purchased at your local gas stations or grocery stores on Sundays. I usually purchase 2 - 3 papers each week. Another way to get coupons is online, called printable coupons. Printable coupons can either be manufacturer coupons or store coupons. Depending on where you get them from. You can get great manufacturer coupons from coupons.com, RedPlum.com, or SmartSource.com.
I never used to shop at drugstores, just because they always seemed so expensive and I never wanted to make an extra trip outside of where I get my groceries. Little did I know just how much I was missing out on! Rite Aid has now become one of my favorite places to shop :)
Rite Aid like many other drugstores have what is called a Wellness program. It's absolutely free and it allows you to qualify for all their sales and to receive all their rewards. You can sign up here.
The key to saving at Rite Aid is their +UP rewards. These rewards are coupons that are printed out after a purchase directly on your receipt from the Manufacturer. They usually state, thanks from "the name of the manufacturer." Then have a $ amount with a barcode. They usually have limit restrictions which means, there is a limit to the amount of the +UP coupons you can get from the manufacturer. You can think of +UPs as Rite Aid money :) remember when you were little and used play money to get things you wanted? Yes, that is the idea! Excepts, this is very real haha.
My suggestion if you are just getting started is to go in to the store looking for different +UP deals on products you have coupons for. Pay for your very 1st transaction all up front, then you will get a ton of +UP that you can then roll over to your next purchase on more products with +UP's to continue rolling over that money. The key is to keep rolling your +UP over from transaction to transaction so you NEVER have to pay a large amount out of pocket. It's almost like using Rite Aid bucks to pay for all the merchandise you are getting! Here is what they look like:
Hello everyone!
It's been about a month & a half since I've 1st started couponing with EVERYTHING & ANYTHING I do. It has already saved me more money than I could EVER imagine. As I've become better & better at this art, I've had a handful of people ask me to teach them how to save. So this is the sole purpose behind this blog, to teach others in need how to save money and help others to find those deals! So, let's get started :)
I'm going to break it down to the most BASIC steps possible so as to make it easiest for EVERYONE to understand.
So the first thing you need to begin to understand obviously, are the coupons, which may seem rather simple but can quickly become overwhelming when you throw in limits, overage, and all the varying coupon policies.
The 1st type of coupons are Manufacturer Coupons. Usually the coupon actually has printed the words "Manufacturer Coupon" on it, but there are exceptions where the consumer is left in confusion. If uncertain, MOST all manufacturer coupons' barcode begin with the number 5. Manufacturer coupons are monetary values from the actual manufacturer of the product. These coupons can be found in the Sunday newspapers, online websites, social networking sites and many other areas.
The 2nd type of coupons are Store Coupons. Store coupons carry a monetary value given directly from the store. These coupons can be found in different locations varying from store to store. Some stores offer coupon booklets, others provide online clipping forums.
Which leads me to my next topic of discussion. Store acceptance. Each store has a different coupon policy. Some provide limits to the amount of coupons accepted, others prohibit certain type of coupons with a specific sale, each store has a different limit to the amount of coupons accepted per item, etc. There are hundreds of stores with varying coupon policies. So my suggestion to you is to study the stores policies you shop at, or perhaps even take a peek at other store's coupon policies near you. The more you understand the policy the better your savings will be :) I have provided below a link of some of the coupon policies I shop at. Click on each store and check them out! While checking out each of your store's policies, look for what makes that store's policies different. How may it be better? How may it be worse? We'll go over later some of the benefits & downfalls of the coupon policies of national stores in the US.
Rite Aid
Walgreens
CVS
Meijer
Walmart
Well that's it for today! Don't want to throw too much information at you @ once. I'll be posting more and more as we go, including answering questions, finding deals and lots more! Bear with me as the blog gets updated and moved around to a more efficient manner.
And remember,
DON'T THROW AWAY COUPONS!
Ta ta for now :)
