One of my goals for the next month is to post each day of
July about a List of 10 dealing with a personal finance or money saving idea
topic.
Whether you have been couponing or trying to start there are
various places where you can find coupons. Below are 10 sources of coupons.
1) The most common
place to find coupons is inserts in the newspaper. Most Sunday newspapers have coupon
inserts. Coupon inserts are not normally
in newspapers holiday weekends.
2) “Blinkie”
machines, the red machines you may see on store shelves that have coupons in
them. Product displays – sometimes you
will find coupons on product displays.
3) Store coupons –
some stores, especially grocery stores and drugstores may have coupons in their
flyers. If they are store coupons you
may be able to also use manufacturer coupons on the same item, which is called “stacking”. At CVS, when you scan you Extra Care card in
the store you may receive coupons for certain items in the store.
4) Check your
receipts for coupons and offers on the back from other businesses. Sometimes coupons print out at the register to
use on a future purchase if you purchase certain items.
5) Printable coupons –
There are websites that you can get printable
coupons from. In my
experience, some stores will not accept printable coupons.
6)
Free samples – if you get samples in the mail, there
may be coupons on the packaging.
7)
In the mail – Some companies mail coupons in the
mail. Also, some stores may mail coupons
for their stores.
8)
Phone book – there may be coupons in the back of your
phone book for restaurants and other retailers.
9)
Recycling bins – you may be able to find multiple
copies of coupons at the recycling center.
10)
Look on packages of products you use that may have
coupons on them.
