We even have plans to set up an area for a stockpile. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1468327 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 22:43:19 +0000 snowjewelz 1468327@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ms.Pumpkin: that is awesome! Love a man that can hunt for a bargain! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1468324 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 22:40:17 +0000 betsyboop 1468324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jedeve: That app is amazing, we've saved so much by using it! Unfortunately the safeway owned stores in my city all closed. </p> <p>I usually have 2 or 3 coupons per grocery trip, and the grocery i frequent the most doubles coupons one day a week. I usually have coupons for the same items each week... lo's yogurt, lo's cereal bars, and tabasco lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1468271 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 22:11:24 +0000 charmed 1468271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Cartwheel and Mperks and will do a search for coupon codes if I shop online. But I'm more about buying what's on sale that week than using coupons and stocking up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1468238 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 21:56:31 +0000 cascademom 1468238@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use the Cartwheel app at Target and keep coupon book with me of ones I get from Pampers and Claritin. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1468218 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 21:49:02 +0000 Ms.Pumpkin 1468218@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The Mr does all of our grocery shopping, because I'm not really a couponer, but boy oh boy is he ever!</p> <p>He LOVES getting good deals, and will constantly come home and tell me that he managed to get several boxes of cereal for like $1 each due to double coupons and sales... he's so proud, I love it! He tells the neighbor ladies where to get the best deals! </p> <p>While it can be annoying sometimes to have to have whole conversations about yogurt brands in the dairy aisle, I really appreciate how frugal he is- I honestly believe that being frugal in these areas can help make a good life easier to afford! Save $20 a week, that's around $80 a month, that's almost a grand a year! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467920 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 19:51:41 +0000 MsMamaBear 1467920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Happygal: I use <a href="http://www.southernsavers.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.southernsavers.com</a> She posts the flyers and corresponding coupons so it's easy. Once you get it down, it's easy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467884 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 19:38:44 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1467884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Happygal: some of the grocery stores around here will match any advertised price (at any other store). So I get my flyers for all the stores, make a list of what is on sale where, and then when I go through the checkout, I show the flyers/prices and get the sale price.<br /> Like today, I got a $15 pork roast for $5.50 because it was advertised cheaper in another store's flyer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467855 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 19:25:32 +0000 Happygal 1467855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>New to this and wanting to learn, so I have questions!</p> <p>@redsmarties: what does it mean to price match flyers?</p> <p>@beebug: I'll have to check out the flipp app.</p> <p>Does anyone have a good coupon site they like? I've looked at a few and have felt totally overwhelmed by it all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467625 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 18:04:04 +0000 Beebug 1467625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Don't coupon, but price match using flyers, via the "flipp" app. It's awesome and saves taking flyers to the grocery store. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467616 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 18:00:54 +0000 MsMamaBear 1467616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, I use a website where she posts the sales at the store and the coupons that match it and I shop. So easy.lol Lately, it's helped to fill LO's Easter basket. I also have enough that I haven't bought any since October. LOL! (Not that I am a hoarder!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467550 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 17:45:04 +0000 lemondrop 1467550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When convenient, but I don't go out of my way to plan ahead very well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467472 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 17:21:03 +0000 sunny 1467472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: me too! I was using a bunch of coupons at Target and then they forgot to scan my Cartwheel so I made them do it and give me $3 back. I feel a little dumb but not enough to walk away from $3 I guess!</p> <p>I only do the mobile stuff on Target. I never see anything I need from the weekly inserts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467460 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 17:17:02 +0000 mrs. bird 1467460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yup! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467435 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 17:04:41 +0000 DillonLion 1467435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, i just buy all store brand items </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467348 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 16:28:04 +0000 snowjewelz 1467348@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jedeve: that's a good idea! i wish one never has to print out coupons again. sometimes i'm lazy and really don't feel like printing and cutting! </p> <p>i study the receipt after like it's my job and i've totally gone to customer service asking them to rectify something :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467335 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 16:25:51 +0000 jedeve 1467335@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started using the Safeway Just for U app, which is pretty awesome. You just "clip" the coupons you want and they all go to your store card.</p> <p>I am trying to get better at couponing. Not going extreme or anything, but using a coupon when there is a sale and then getting 2-3 bottles of shampoo, for example, instead of my typical 1. </p> <p>I feel like something always goes wrong though! I planned this trip to save a bunch at Walgreens yesterday and they rang me up twice because the register jammed. My mobile coupons didn't work the second time and it charged me twice! I'm still trying to fix it - it's like $50! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467310 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 16:22:13 +0000 jhd 1467310@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted yes, but def not an extreme couponer! I have been using coupons + Cartwheel at Target and I try to print coupons from coupons.com for things I would buy anyway like cereal or toilet paper etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467308 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 16:21:44 +0000 mrsjyw 1467308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>at target, or at bbb or bru/tru </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467306 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 16:21:06 +0000 looch 1467306@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: yes, like buying 10 containers of mayo, with 10 coupons. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467304 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 16:20:39 +0000 MrsStar 1467304@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope but only because coupons generally aren't used here. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467296 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 16:18:36 +0000 snowjewelz 1467296@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: Like 4 for the same product? I don't think I ever have more than 4-5 to use, but then Target has the mobile coupon and their app that I ask the cashiers to scan. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467292 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 16:17:37 +0000 snowjewelz 1467292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@redsmarties: Don't be!

It ends up saving me about $20 each week, which is a big deal for us! And it only takes a few minutes. Sometimes I feel bad for the people behind me in line though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467277 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 16:14:53 +0000 Adira 1467277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pretty much no, but I get coupons for baby food whenever I go shopping, so I try to remember to bring them back to use the next week! But that's the extent of my couponing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-coupon-2#post-1467263 Tue, 04 Mar 2014 16:11:40 +0000 snowjewelz 1467263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do but only at Target. DH does the food shopping and he will never coupon! At least he looks for things on sale. </p> <p>I like couponing w/ Target because I stack their mobile coupons with print-outs with their cartwheel app! I study my receipts after and I always feel so accomplished haha. </p> <p>But I am def not at all like the extreme couponers. I don't have that much room at home to have stockpiles! </p>
