I just found out that my local grocery store has coupons online that I can register my shopper card with and they come off the product instantly at the register. I think this is so cool, then you don't forget your coupons and you save a little paper, good for the environment.

You guys may want to check out the web page for the places you shop, they may offer these savings and coupons also.

Just go to the website of the grocery store that you have a shoppers card for, I am sure they are all doing it. shop cheap as possible.

I will have to check on the stores website that I do my grocery shopping, this would be better than carry around paper ones, I would hope they would have ones on there that I would use often, I will check and see.

I have saved a few bucks on there, I just have to remember that the coupons are on there, not items that I would buy at full price so the expiration usually runs out before I can use them up, just not thinking about those items when I am in the store, so I am going to have to note them on my list when I go and put my big fat C beside them so that I know I have a coupon on the item.

I have been using the online shoppers coupons for quite sometime, I signed up awhile ago and have saved some money by using it, I find that there are often items there that I would not use.

FYI:
You can go to the manufacturers webpages and request coupons too, I have recieved an entire book of coupons from vicks, nyquil and other over the counter medications. I am not sure about food items, but when we purchase over the counter medications they can drive a grocery bill through the roof, so it is nice to have a few dollars off on the cold medicines in the winter and the allergy medications during the spring. You can also get some pretty descent coupons on the beauty web pages, I have gotten some really nice coupons on dove and other soaps, shampoos, body washes and etc, straight from the manufacturer. Just go to the webpage and use the contact us option, in the question box, just request coupons, they will often honor your request.

If you do get some really good coupons, please come back here and share, it is the nice thing to do.

I just looked at the grocery store we shop at... there was much in the way of coupons... all they showed was their current adds in the local papers...

Will try the online coupon sites.. Was wondering if anyone has tried the online approach??

Is this a reasonable option to make any purchase? Do we do it just because the products come off cheaper?

Well, we do alot of shopping at costco.. We stock up on paper towels, water, toilet paper etc.

Seems like every other week we get coupons in the mail from them.

We get a ton of coupons in the mail.. One week we got stuff from Safeway. We dont normally shop there because they are high companred to Fry's, Costco, Bashas and Walmart. However, they had lean hamburger meat at 99 cents a pound a couple of weeks ago. But you had to buy a 9 pound tube of it. Since we have a deep freeze, we purchased 2. Great burgers.. They happened to have milk at 1.25 a gallon, which is unheard of here. We used a coupon for that..

I dont know. It just seems easier to review the coupons that are sent to us via snail mail than going out and researching them on the net. Maybe its just me...

My grocery store don't have a whole lot online at this time, but I am sure that through time they will. They all usually do what the other one does to keep up with the times, I probably will have to make a note to myself of what is on the card so that I don't forget, especially if it is something that I am not gonna use right away.

I have been watching the site and the ads in the store to see if they will offer them soon, so far, nothing yet.

Thanks for the tip.

You wouldn't believe the amount of valid coupons that can be found online and printed out and then be cut out and used at the stores. You can save a fortune on them. I have seen people with HUGE stacks at the store. A penny saved can mean alot these days.

There was a store where I lived once who said that. But I could never get it to work for me. I am always clipping coupns but never see to remember to use them except the fast food ones. I printed out some once then was afraid the store would not honor them. The ladies at the Dollar General look at you funny if you hand them a printed coupon.

How do you get perks and what stores does this work with.Nothing like that here. There is a station that gives 5 cents off if you pump it yourself.Gas just went way over 3.00 here a gallon. I am having to cancel a dr check up for my daughter because it is to far to drive with gas that high ,Work is slow and we cannot afford the trip.
