ABC's of Couponing

Sandra S

I have a question. When you use your Smith’s Rewards card and have loaded coupons on them from Shortcuts and Cellfire if there is an identical coupon on each site will both of them come off or just one? Right now there is the BC Warm Delights listed on both sites and I have a printable coupon, I am wondering if all of them can be used?

deidre

Sometimes randomly all of them will go through, my experience lately is usually only one eCoupon will come off per item. For example, if you buy a Warm Delights you will get the Shortcuts coupon used but not the Cellfire. However, ecoupons CAN be stacked with manufacturer’s coupons. Make sure to login to Upromise and load their grocery coupons on your card too! Those won’t come off your bill but they will be added to your kids/grandkids college savings accounts.

  Hello,
  
  I am new to the couponing thing so I’m kind of lost…
  
  When you talk about the cellfire coupons, if I have a manufacturer’s coupon let’s say $1.00 off a bath tissue and then a cellfire coupon on my store card for 1.00 off the same item, will I get 2.00 off? Or it counts like the same coupon and I can only use one of them?
  If I have this, can I still double coupons? What brings me to my next question…
  
  Then, what those it mean double coupons? When do I know that a coupon can be doubled? Does the coupon say it can and then I’ll ask the person at the register to double it or what? how does that work?
  
  Thanks a lot! =o)
  - deidre
    
    most stores won’t let you use an ecoupon + a manufacturer’s coupon. And I don’t think you can double ecoupons.
    - Lizbeth Lopez
      
      Thanks,
      
      What about the doble coupons? Can you explain to me how that works, I asked @ the store today and they couldn’t tell me, I just dont understand what they are and how to use them?
      
      Thanks, again
      
      Oh! and I don’t know if you knew it or if you have a Shoprite in you area, but Shoprite has the kellogs PopTarts @ 3 for $5.00 and Kellogs website has a coupon for 1.00 off 3 boxes of poptarts so that’s 3 for $4.00 and I think that is a great deal ’cause I always buy them for about 2.89 each at regular price.
      - deidre
        
        Which store did you ask? Only certain stores double coupons – many Krogers, and a few other stores, and on select dates Kmart doubles up to $2. You can read individual stores policies here: http://www.cuckooforcoupondeals.com/questions/coupon-policies/

hi, i love your site and it has quickly become my favorite. i tried to use my coupons for the hungry hungry hippos and the connect 4 travel games at walmart and the computer would not accept them. since i was holding up the line and the manager was not responding to the cashiers call for help, i told her to take the items off of my bill and i took my coupons back. how should i handle this next time? also, i had printed a coupon for 95 cents off of one pillsbury cinnamon buns. but im not sure if that was on your site or not. would you know where i can find this coupon again? thank you for any help you can give me. debra

deidre

I searched several coupon databases and can’t find that coupon, so it probably isn’t available anymore. Walmart can be stinkers with coupons. I like to tell people right when they get behind me in line that I will be using a lot of coupons, and often they go to another lane and are glad I let them know. If someones already there, and I’m having problems, I feel bad but also remember what feels like forever is really on 5 minutes in the grand scheme of things. Another option is to have them take the items off your bill, then take the items and the coupons to Customer Service and try again. Sorry I don’t have a quick-fix solution for ya!

Bonita

I have used coupons for quit some time now, but have never gotten as good of deals as I got today at Rite Aid, K-Mart and Wal-mart, by using your helpful hints of course. I have a question about the Single Check Rebates offered by Rite Aid, the J&J one in particular. Does the $50 have to be spent before coupons or after coupons? Thank you so much for all of these helpful hints and tidbits for stretching a dollar!

deidre

BEFORE coupons, that’s why Rite Aid usually has my favorite rebate programs!

Debbie

Hi Diedre,

First let me say a BIG Thank You for your site. I have been trying to use coupons over the past few months and learn all I can about the most effective ways to save. I don’t even remember where I got linked to your site from but I am glad I did. It has been helpful all ready, especially the video showing how to cut and organize them and this weeks Rite Aide items. I came back today and tried to access the Rite Aide and Walgreens videos and several attempts only got a message that that site didn’t exist. Have those been too long ago for me to view?
Thanks again.

Candi

Hello. I absolutely love your site!!! Question… can you use two MFQ on one item. For example:

Pampers Jumbo Pack Diapers $8.99
-$2 SCR (limit 1)
-$2 +UP Reward (limit 1)
-$1.50 MFQ (P&G 8/1)
-FREE Wipes MFQ wyb Diapers (P&G 8/1)
Final Price = $3.49 for diapers & wipes!

deidre

Looks like you are referring to Rite Aid – Kinda a trick question because in this example you’d be buying two items – wipes and diapers. So it is a tough one, usually depends on your store. My store allows this.

Stacey

I’ve seen people referring to “buying” JUST the coupon inserts instead of the entire paper…I am new to couponing and would LOVE to do that! I hate wasting all those papers every Sunday! How do I get my hands on these? Thank you!

deidre

You can go to MyCouponHunter.com and select individual coupons you want.
- Shar
  
  I have had the same ? as Stacey. Do you buy the coupon inserts then?

Hello. I didn’t know where else to answer this question. For some reason I am unable to go to the next page when viewing your home page. Is there something I am doing wrong? Is anyone else having this problem?

deidre

Weird! What browser do you use?

Lori B

Thank you for all the tips!! Some I was doing, others I need to add into my daily couponing!

Jodi

hi deidre, first, thanks for all of the tips and tricks! im definately gonna print off all of the coupon poilcies and keep them in my binder. but there is one store im confused about. Dollar general states “Unless the coupons state otherwise, you may use multiple coupons in one transaction.” and after that, the next bullet point says you can combine MFG Q and store Q to increase your savings. so when they are saying “Unless the coupons state otherwise, you may use multiple coupons in one transaction.” does that mean i can use 6 $1.50 off coupons on one $9.00 bottle of tide and get it free?
thanks!

deidre

What they mean by “you may use multiple coupons in one transaction” is that you may use 6 $1.50/1 tide coupons on 6 bottles of tide, in one transaction. You can never use more than one manufacturer’s coupon on one item.

Josie

I click on the tab “Get SS, RP, & P&G Coupons” but nothing happens. How do I access these coupons please?

Mommy B

I just watched the thing about extreme couponing! With that information and yours, I’m sure to save tons in the new year!

Modesty

Thanks for the info on coupons!

Haley

i have a coupon for walgreens 99cents softsoap liquid hand soap it says limit to 3 so does that mean that i can get 3 for 99 cents each?

deidre

yes

Tonya James

Thanks!

Amy Juhasz

Great tips!

ceis8009

I’m amazed by your organization skills! While I am not into extreme couponing, I do appreciate getting deals on your site than I can use.

Nicole

Thanks for all this info your amazing!!!!

Danielle

could you put a add to favorites on the top of this one and I love how you are so quick to answer our questions thank you very much for that.

Shanna Bailes

Wow!!!! Thank you!

Claudia

I just started to really get into coupons. I am in need of moving out of my place and am having some financial issues being able to live on my own. I’m working 7 days a week now and am looking to save as much as I can. I’ve been inspired by the SUPER COUPONER women I’ve seen on tv., but haven’t gotten to their level. I think this site is great! I need the support and reading all of these questions and answers are great! It’s great to have so many people supporting you on even the seemingly simple questions.

I experienced my first upset crowd last night as the cashier at Target thoroughly inspected each coupon and then proceeded to ask me what I purchased and how much it was. She gave me a really hard time on the coupons, but I tried to keep my composure and just go with the flow :o)

Claudia

Hey Deidra,

I went to a Rite Aid in California and the assistant manager said they didn’t take competitor’s coupons. I’m going to try calling the store when the regular manager is there and maybe even try corporate. I’d like to make sure that we can all get the great deals that you’ve taught us about.

Claudia-

deidre

They take Rite Aid store coupons with manufacturer’s coupons, but they don’t take competitor’s coupons.

Angela S.

I NOW UNDERSTAND WHAT IT MEANS TO ROLL A CATALINA. THANK YOU!

Rosalind

I am trying to become a couponer (I hope this is the correct term to use) I would like to know how does everyone save that much money. I guess I don’t understand the math of all the savings. For example how to get the item free.

rebecca shockley(becca33)

This is all great stuff to know, couponing here I come!

Rebecca Shockley

Will all stores honor or follow through with this method called Catalina? I have never heard of this, but it sounds complicated a little, have you ever had a problem with this method? I’m assuming this isn’t new, it’s been around awhile.

Darlene Judd

I hope you can answer this. I apologize if this is the wrong area to ask: I have a $1/1 on Olay bar soap, body wash or body lotion coupon. I also have a coupon for $4 off when you buy ONE Secret, AND ONE Olay bar, body wash, or in-shower body lotion AND ONE Olay hand and body lotion together.
Then I have a $1.50 off TWO Secret Flawless, Scent Expression, Smooth Effects, Fresh Effects or Sheer Minerals.
Can I use all 3 together?
I figure I would have to buy a Olay body wash and TWO Secret items in the last coupon above….or do I have to buy more? Please help! Thanks so much, Darlene

deidre

$4 off when you buy ONE Secret, AND ONE Olay bar, body wash, or in-shower body lotion AND ONE Olay hand and body lotion together. That coupon covers all three products bought, so you can’t use another coupon on that purchase.

Darlene Judd

oops, and one more Olay body wash.

Connie Caproni

I am subscribed to your newletter but receive it a day late 5/12 on 5/13 and so on, therefore I miss alot of the that day only items. Can you please look into this? Thank you for your time. Connie

deidre

I’m sorry about that! I’ll see what is going on.

Lisa

New to couponing as I am sure allot are. I absolutely love your site. I am having a problem printing the coupons. I go to your Coupon Database I am able to have the hand cursor show up over the coupon I want and when I click on it nothing happens. It doesnt bring up the actual coupon and then give me the ability to print it, What am I doing wrong?

leslie Blosch

Deidre tells us we can get Sunday Papers for 1/2 price, if we contact her contact. who is that contact? i NEED THAT INFORMATION AGAIN. CONTACT ME IMMEDIATELY AND LET ME KNOW. LESLIE blackfoothello@hotmail.com

I moved from California to Utah and miss my stores that offer double coupons. Do you have a list of Utah stores that double the coupons?

cal

I think some walmarts do on tuesdays up to a total of 1.00. Mine does. If the coupon is 75 cents than they add 25 cents.

Chantel

Hello, I have been educating myself about coupons and deals for a bit now and starting out small before going big. It’s helped out alot especially in the hygiene department. My husband and I are students and I am currently the bread winner. It will be so nice to continue to save money. Can you please tell me what RR means since I am
New to your site?

deidre

You will definitely want to read about RR’s – register rewards – they are complicated: http://www.cuckooforcoupondeals.com/questions/coupon-policies/walgreens-coupon-policy/

Monica

RR means reward rebate

Sasha

ok i was wondering i’m just starting out using coupons and i was watching that tv show extreme couponing and how in the world do they get $600 and more worth of groceries and pay little to nothing on them i don’t see how their able to use so many coupons in one transaction

cal

It seems like they all buyalot of unhealthy stuff!

georgia

This site is AMAZING i am new to couponing and i spent days researching and trying to figure out how to get started and after reading every tip this site has to offer i feel like iv been couponing for months … lol… no i can wait to get out there and save save save!!!! im so excited thank you

Jennifer

Is there any way to know when shampoo is going to go on sale? I’m almost out and hate the thought of having to pay full price.

deidre

you would just have to check the store deals lists I post each week

Dianna

This wednesday coupons had a target coupon for $5.00 gift card when you buy two of there following items like bounty, charmin and pampers. How do you make that work $5.00 back on items that has the lowest price of $7.00 but you have to buy two

deidre

If you are getting a target gift card for buying two items, you can still use coupons on the purchase! So you could could use two coupons on the two bounty products, and still get a $5 target gift card!

Jen

I am wondering if you do Fred Meyer. We have them in Oregon and I’d love for you to match the sales and coupons. Do you have them in the site?
Thanks

deidre

I actually have a girl in Idaho who does them, I need to add them to the sidebar. I will have to ask her if the Fred Meyer ads in Idaho are the same as Oregon.

Cassie

I am just starting out on this couponing adventure. I have my binder, extra ink cartridges etc. I have run into one MAJOR problem though that is keeping me from being able to get all the deals.
I have a MAC and when I click on the link for a printable coupon the coupons.com page comes up telling me my printer or printer settings are not compatible. I have emailed them several times trying to figure it out and still have not resolved this issue. All of my system settings on my MAC are ok and they said my printer is compatible.
Have you ever heard of this happening and if so how do you solve it. The majority of the printable coupons are through coupons.com so I am at a loss.

Dana

I have a mac as well; if you get an answer on this… please let me know, thanks

Stephanie Becker

Star

I just came across your website and I really love your it. I do have a suggestion for you. Would you consider putting the letters ea or each after your coupon matchups? It was a bit confusing to me at first until I figured it out. Thanks.

Star

sorry about the misspell there should be no your before the it. lol

Lavina

I am new to extreme couponing. I did, however, always use coupons. I saw one epissode of “Extreme Couponing” and I wad hooked. I thought, “I can do that. I have the patients, organizing skills, and mathmatical skills to do that. I googled ABC’s of couponong and found your website. Boy, am I glad I did! I have learned so much from it. Thank you.

deidre

You are welcome! Let me know if you have any questions!

Rosemarie Patrizio

I was wondering those coupons you posted for milk and cheese. Do you think that I could use them at Walmart? I realize that I live in NJ, but it is a competitors coupon right? Or am I just thinking too much?

deidre

The coupon says “Valid only in UT or ID” on it

Dana

Hi, I just started couponing almost 2 weeks ago; I only have coupons starting from 6/25/11, (that’s how new I am :)) I am still getting completely baffled on some of the deals that are listed above…for instance, If my math is correct on the “Gillette Fusion/ProGlide/Venus Pro/Skin Embrace or Spa Breeze”, 1 for $9.99, with my coupon for $2 off (1) frm p&g 7/3, that would =$7.99 and – 4 ECB’s =$3.99, (not the .99 as you state above). Even if I had the 6/5 coupon (instead) for $4 off (1), that would still bring the total down to 1.99 (after ECB’s and coupon), so HOW did you get the .99 total on this?? I have re-done the math over and over and I am not getting the .99 in any case, (even if you could use both coupons(which you can’t use 2 MFC’s on 1 item) from 6/5 & 7/3, after EBC’s, it would equal out to -.01…Please explain your strategy.
Thanks….anyone

deidre

OOPS you are right it should be $1.99, I updated the post!

Dana

How do you get the “p&g homemailer”?

deidre

you have to sign up https://www.pgeverydaysolutions.com/pgeds/register-eds.jsp

Dana

LOL, ohhh thanx girl, was thinking I was extra tired or…

Dana

3 more questions
1) On the Herbal Essence/Aussie sale, do you use BOTH coupons (from the insert dates listed) to get the =.97/ea? Just wondering, because I don’t have any inserts from before 6-26-11…
BTW, 2) Are the old newspaper inserts still available?
&
3) I have gotten 2 Sunday papers so far…6/26 & 7/3… In the 6/26, I found a SS insert, a RP insert and several specific store inserts, but (no P&G Insert). I understand the P&G inserts do not come every week, however…when they do come, are the SS and RP inserts not included that week, along with the P&G)? I am assuming not, as I saw 2 of the 7/3 papers and found only the P7G with NO SS and RP inserts this week… kept looking around for the SS & RP inserts this week, thinking they fell out…

deidre

the reason SS didn’t come last weekend was because of the Holiday they don’t come on holiday weekends. usually they come regardless of whether the P&G come or not. What herbal essence sale are you talking about? at cvs, you would need to scan your card to see if the coupons from the magic coupon machine print and those are stackable with the ones from the 7/3 P&G
- Dana
  
  Thanks for the reply; u didnt mention RedPlum, guessing that doesn’t come as well, on holidays?
  
  I was referring to your matchup for 7/3-7/10 on the herbal essence/Aussie deal at CVS

Dana

Hi, I was wanting to do the Walgreens, Noxzema disp razors (see below), but i cant find the coupon in RP today (7/10 as you stated, but I am just not seeing it anywhere in my insert…

“Noxzema Disposable Razors BOGO
Use $2/1 from 7/10 RP
Final Price= FREE”

Also, I was wondering… what is “Get More From Your Pharmacy booklet”? As I am interested in the Softsoap deal? as well:

“Softsoap Liquid Hand Soap $.99
Use $.35/1 from Get More From Your Pharmacy booklet
Final Price= $.64”

Thank you

Dana

I even got another paper from 7/10 just to see if the noxzema razor coupon had gotten misplaced; it was not in there either… ? are the coupons different from state to state, or something?

Is the “Get More Pharmacy Booklet” the same as the little Walgreens coupon booklet that you get inside the store? If so, there is not a single Softsoap coupon in the (my) July issue…. I have gone through it a hundred times and their are no missing coupons; I am baffled at this point-
If anyone knows…please answer. Thank you

Diane Morrow

Cal Hesse

I have do everything asked and installed coupon printer etc. I can not print coupons ? why?

Amanda Murphy

I have an ethics question. I was just on another couponing blog and saw a “brag” photo. It showed someone buying 40 or so of one item for free with a .50 overage on each one. Now if it were a newspaper coupon that she had used I wouldnt think twice about it. But it wasn’t and she doesn’t have 20 computers in her home. The coupon was in the form of a PDF file that allows you to print as many as you want. However I don’t think that this is how the manufacturer intended for this coupon to be used.
So my question is; Do you think it’s right to print off as many as your want just because you have the ability to do so?
(I dont’ want to say what item or coupon it was because I don’t want anyone getting the wrong idea I’m not calling anyone out or anything like that. If you want to know what item and coupon it was pls email me and I”ll tell you that way.)

deidre

I always just print 2 printable coupons, even PDF’s as that is how I think every one should do it so manufacturer’s don’t stop releasing online coupons

Joey

I was wondering which stores have the best variety of travel sizes? my local cvs is pretty small and is mostly travel containers ( toothbrush holders, bar soap holder, etc)

ambernicole8484

My walmart and target have very good travel size sections. My CVS, Rite Aid and Wags do not.

julie westbrook

After I seen Extreme Couponing i was hooked. I would love to learn how to save on items for my family. I have to boys 13 and 7 and I am married. My husband has been laid off for two years and it’s been really really hard for us. So i thought if i got taught how to do it I would save and help my family alot. i have been going on line to get all the research but i still need some help. I dont think our state does double or triple coupons because we live in Michigan. I think its probably the highest in unemployment rate. So if you could please please help me. Thank you soooo much. have a great day.

I have a question & a problem about rite aid up rewards. Yesterday, I paid for an order after coupons with my ups which brought it down to $3.24, so I gave the cashier $3 more in ups and she scanned it and the register beeped and said that it could not accept it unless i did another purchase for $1and some change, (cant remember the exact amount she said). The cashier then told me to save those ups for another day and just pay with cash. Which i agreed, because i did not want to make another purchase just to use the ups. So today, i went and did another transaction and handed those same ups to the cashier and she scanned them, and the register said that they were scanned and used already. Now i did check my receipt from yesterday and those ups were deducted. How do I get reimbursed for those ups. This is the second time I had this happen to me. I am down $4.00 now. Anyone ever have this same situation?

Thank you for posting this, it has been so helpful. After just 2 weeks, I am saving 50-87% on my purchases! I know this will increase as I get more of a coupon base. I am so excited about being able to give to charity!

Naomi

I love your site! Thank you for the information you share. I have been couponning for 6 months now. With a husband and three children, I am still able to share my finds with my close family without feeling there isn’t enough. We are now able to get “our monies worth” when shopping!
Thanks again.

Danielle

First, thank you for all your hard work giving us the best deals. I really appreciate all that you do!
Second, how do you find time to do it all? For me there seems to be not enough hours in the day. I hope you are taking some time for yourself. We all need our alone time. And lastly I looking to purchase a flip open sofa (preferably Cars) for my 2 year old son. I look around and Walmart is the cheapest. I have a $10 birthday coupon that I got from Sears, but I still have to pay shipping. Amazon was simply outrageous. Any ideas
where I might find a great deal? I also looked at Toys R Us but even with the 20% the price is around $36.00.

Thanks

Jennifer

Hey Deidre! I have a question about something i saw on extreme couponing last night that confused me . the coupons that are BOGO ( example buy a gilette body was get a free gilette deoderant ) i thought were not supposed to be combined with other coupons . The lady on the show bought a bunch of old spice deoderant and used coupons for those and then used another coupon for the buy one get one . is that allowed .( by the way i shop at harris teeter ) .Thanks so much , Jen

deidre

Yes, you aren’t supposed to do that. There are lots of rumors of coupon fraud on that show.
- Jennifer
  
  thanks for getting back to me . i thought u werent supposed to thanks for confirming

Kathleen

This page has helped me so much and I haven’t made it all the way through yet! I have tried coupons over the years and saved some. After finding your site, I realize that I will be saving a lot more as I learn and get more coupons. I am currently saving 50 – 87%. If you are new to coupons and wondering if you can do this, Cuckoo for Coupons does the hard work for you. I love this hobby – it exercises my brain and forces me to walk and get out of the house. After about a month of finding your site, I already have a stock pile of things to donate to charity that I got free or almost free, it is such a good feeling to be able to help others.

Thank you for this. I am new to couponing. I never realised how much you could save using coupons until I watched the TLC Extreme Couponing. I need all the help I can get!

Thanks again!!!!!!

ria

can you explain savingstar?

Shirley

Newbie questions. Please help.

What exactly is a unilever coupon?
How did you know about the doubling of unilever coupons?
How old is this coupon booklet? My Kmart has none.

Thank you

deidre

They are at the front desk, and they are gone quickly once they put them out. Unilever is a brand, so products from them.
- Shirley
  
  Thank you so much for replying. Was the doubling of Unilever coupons advertised on the coupon booklet? If not, where? I didn’t see this anywhere on the kmart ads.

USHA

Hi – Thanks for your wonderful coupon tips. Can anyone please let me know where I could get the best deal to buy storage cabins or shelves? I’m a beginner and starting to build my stock pile. Thanks in advance…

I have a question. Went to rite aid today, I have not shopped there much. I bought 2 of the Sensidine toothpaste that was on sale for 4.99 each. I used a 4$ off 2 video value coupon. I tried to used 2 manufactorers coupons for 1.50 off of each. The cashier would not take them, she said that was not allowed because I used a video value coupon, she said the register would not accept them, even though she did not even try to scan them. She did let me use a 1.50 ups. I throught I could stack a manufactors with a video value, am I wrong or was she wrong.

jana doucoure

Do we print the coupons or can they be sent to me via postal mail? I am using a mobile phone.

Sandy W

this is awesome! Thank you for all your had work!

Danielle

Do you still use the coupon clutch? Did you purchase the binder only and add our inserts

nikki

They will argue with you, and yes FIGHT FOR UR SAVINGS!! thnx, nikki

I am hoping you can shed some light on something that happened this weekend and today that really has me aggravated. I went to CVS to get the Nature’s Bounty vitamins B1G1 and had a $1 off manufacturer’s coupon with a Kroger logo on it. I didn’t realize that they considered this a competitors coupon and couldn’t use it. So I called CVS corporate to compliment their cashier and complain and came across a very rude customer service rep and in the end spoke to her supervisor who was very upset about the way she spoke to me and the wrong information she told me. After calling different companies themselves, Nature’s Bounty and Kimberly Clark specifically, because they are the manufacturers coupons that I have used at different stores with a logo of a different store on it, I found out that Nature’s Bounty will not reimburse a store other then what that of the store logo on it. Kimberley Clark however informed me that they would (I used HEB logo manufacturers coupons for Huggies slip on diapers at CVS a couple of months ago). I argued my case to Nature’s bounty because of the wording on their coupon. My arguement was: Kroger logo on it, BUT it said in fine print that it was good only in USA including US military bases. So I would take that to mean anywhere in the US and commissaries, wouldn’t you? Because here is the deal, there are no Kroger’s on a military base, EVER! The very nice rep from Nature’s Bounty understood where I was coming from and was forwarding my complaint. I told her I don’t have a problem with them having coupons specifically for certain stores, but the fine print should also word that too, where the verbage on the coupon says specifically anywhere in US and military bases, and instead of having that wording they need to put manufacturer coupon only @ Kroger etc. She said they wouldn’t change the wording for a specific store and that their coupons all had that standard wording on all of them. I told her if they could change the logo they could change the blanket fine print wording. And I felt that by them wording it this way they were not on the up and up and felt very sneaky to me. So my question, how are we supposed to know what manufacturers coupons we can use at any stores? Or do we just not use them except at those specific stores? Because in the end I don’t want to have a store not get reimbursed to a company who is not on the up and up. I am seriously thinking of boycotting Nature’s Bounty and getting our vitamins from other manufacturers, we NEED some of these for health reasons, it’s not for fun or on a whim, my daughter is Vitamin D deficient and diabetic she HAS to have them it’s not a choice. Any light you can shed whould be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much for all you do Deidre!

Tammy

Hi! I was wondering about using different zip codes (other than your own) to get coupons. I’ve been noticing that on some recommended coupons it says to use other zip codes other than my own to get the coupon. If I do this will the coupon still be accepted in my area? I’m sorry if this question has already been asked & I didn’t catch it. I really love this site & thank you for all the great information.
Thanks,
Tammy

deidre

yes they will accept it, unless it is a milk or cheese coupon, those say on the coupon valid in UT, ID or FL only

Katherine

Hi there, I just wanted to say thank you. Your video really helped me understand what I need to do. I am really excited to get the news paper tomorrow! haha I am a newly single mother of 3 (I’m going to get 4 papers like you said) and I need to really find ways to save. I just was wondering if you knew of a way I could get older coupons so I dont miss out on “hot idems” this week?? and after I cut my coupons tomorrow… do I have to wait another week or so to be able to start couponing? it seems when I look around online all the sale items in the store linger a little bit till you can really save??

I have really enjoyed all the info you have shared on couponing, I have a problem printing coupons from coupon.com. I have made my printer the default printer, installed the coupon printing installer (30 times) and still coupons won’t print. I have an Apple computer and the coupons printed until I installed new software both Snow Leopard os x10.6.3 and Lion os x both from Apple. Do you have any ideas what I can do to make my coupons print.
Thank You Penny

Question. Last week I purchased the Thermacare Heatwrap at walgreens for $2.49 and recieved RR $2.50 and a catalina for $2.00 off any 2 ct or larger. I did this twice. Next week walgreens is having buy 2 Thermacare 2ct recieve $5.00 RR. If i use the 2 $2.00 catalina’s I have, with the 2 $3.00 manufactured coupons I have, will I still get a $5.00 RR being I’m using a Pfizer catalina on another catalina product.

I’ve just started couponing. My best deal thus far are:
1) Brita Water Pitcher ($22.97 value) overstocked item at Walmart so I paid $8.88 used a $4.00 coupon and a $10 rebate. Profit $5.12
2) Vaseline lotions 3oz. .on sale Walmart .98 used coupon for $1.00 overage .02 cents
I’ve seen where people go to CVS and buy 10/10 Dove bodywash using $10 coupon OOP FREE ! However, I have not found such deals todate. I also watched the extreme couponing show and wondered just how do they do it. The show I watched was when they went to Las Vegas, purchasing thousands of dollars worth of items (donating them to charity) for zero amount.

I know you’ve posted a RiteAid, Walgreens and CVS sample deals. Can you do one for Walmart.

I also saw the Kelloggs rebate. 10 UPC for $10 Mastercard (5 limit per household) Anyone find any good deals on Kelloggs

Thank you for this website! You are such a huge help!

Quick question…I am going to Wal-mart this week and just checked out your posting of the Wal-mart ongoing deals. Some of the Money Maker coupons come from Travel sized products, but the coupon says “Excludes Trial/Travel Size”. Can I use the coupon for a travel size anyway?

Deidre

No those are coupons I must not have noticed that restriction on them, which are they? I will remove them.
- Kacie
  
  It’s likely I have a different coupon for the same product and mine just has the exclusion. I’m still new at this Thanks for your reply!

Hello! I love your site. It is so helpful. Thank you!!! I have a question regarding tp. Is this a stockup price? Scott Big Roll 1000 sheets 118sq ft on sale 2 / .88….

Deidre

do you mean 2 big rolls for $.88? Does it say if the big rolls = 2 regular rolls?
- ChrisG
  
  Yes, 2 big rolls for .88. It does not say = 2 rolls. 118 sq ft each roll. The sale is at Walgreens.
  - Deidre
    
    If you mean, 2 big rolls or 4 single rolls for $.88, it is a stock up price if it is 2-ply, but not 1-ply.
    - ChrisG
      
      Thank you…it is 1 ply.

Hi how are you? I am coupons newcomer and you have been very helpful. I had a question about cvs right now they are giving $7 EBR for $10 worth of physicians formula make up item. I bought an eyeliner that I might not want to keep n probably exchange for another item. Say if I use my $7 EBR before returing or exchanging my item. what happens then.. Will they take back the $7 EBR the next time I buy something or will they take it off when I return the item? I hope I made the question clear for you my mind is a store policy mess. Thank you so much

I tried to use a coupon from coupons.com today and the clerk at wags said it did not have a security watermark, and I was not able to use it. I didn’t realize what he meant so I am home doing research and after speaking with people and looking through old coupons I realized it was the little dots in the expiration date. I tried printing several coupons in color and black & white they were all different one color one came out with markings behind the $ amount, I assume another security feature, but still no dots, the blck & wht one had no markings behind the $ amount and no dots. I am confused as to what I need to do to get the dots (security watermark) to print on my coupons, I don’t know if this is a printer thing, or what. Does anyone have any info that may help? I have windows vista.

Carrie Miller

No replies?? Hmm Im new to couponing, will be printing out my first batch this evening and now Im scared that this will happen to me! Anyone got an answer?? Last thing I need to do is get through the store and checkout only to find out that none of the coupons are valid:(

Question: Is there a site/link where we can compare one stores deals against another (i.e., CVS / Rite Aid / Walgreens)?

Hi! Ok so I just got back from Walgreens… Got 3 6packs of Viva paper towels has the $1.00 off each Wags coup, had 3 50/1 coup… I paid $14.49 total… no RR or Catalina. The cashier asked me WHY I thought there were RR, it is not in the ad. UGH…. So what to do now? I plan on returning them BUT I want my coupons back… Is that an option? lol THANKS! How can I get the RR to print if I return, get coups back & try again??? Get my total BEFORE using any coupons??? THANK YOU!!!!!

Penny

I have a Question and a comment, Why don’t you have Menards on you list of stores? Maybe not in your area? I live in Michigan very close to Indiana and just picked up a great deal at the Menards store they have Lysol No touch Kitchen Starter kit on sale for $3.99 and I still had my $3.00 off coupons also in time for $3.00 rebate, thats a money maker isn’t it.

JustGlenda

Hey Deidre, My dryer machine just stopped working! I have to hand rinse and hang dry all my sheet now… =( Do you know if there are any good deals on washer and dryer at the moment? Thanks!

Shondabr

question, I have a coupon for $1.00 of two for cereal and .50 off 1 for cereal (same brand) can I use both?

Deidre

no – the $1/2 coupon covers two items, and not other manufacturer’s coupons can be used with them.

I watched TLC Exstream Couponing and I was wondering where the lady got the high dollar coupons for the soda, it was $4.69 I think for each 12 pk.

Debbi Merritt

I dont know if it will work with all company’s but I google the company and ask them if they send free samples or coupons. Believe it or not I got back alot of coupons( good one too) If u have the time what do u have to loose? The companys want our bussiness

wendyll18

Hello. I just printed coupons from commonkindness for the first time. Has anyone had issues with the coupons scanning due to the small size, and if so does anyone know what is a good size to increase them to?

newwwwwbie

Do you have to ask the cashier to double your coupon or will it automaticly double?

Deidre

At which store?

Angelastroup

None of the coupons you say should be in my circulars are there. 3 dollars off 2 revlon products from 6/10 smart source is not in mine. What am I doinf wrong?

Michelelianne

Hello, I just came across your website and I noticed it said

“California (Sacramento Area) Get Multiple Copies of the Sunday paper
JUST $.77 each! These have RP & SS weekly, and P&G once a
month!”

I’m in the area, so i thought this was perfect. However, when i
clicked on the link to order, it states the price is $2.00 per copy.
How do i get the $0.77 price?

Richerson Crystal

I heard u say something about single check rebate program what is that and how do I sign up for that

munyan

If you go to the rite aid home page and click on save now….scroll down and find the single check rebate tab….click on it. You will need to create an account. Then login and click on submit reciept. If you have qualifying items they will credit you and you can choose to get check now or if you wait until the end of the SCR period they send it out automatically, which is better because you can only request the check once per period. I have started entering all my rite aid reciepts even if I don’t know about a SCR for the items I entered, and tonight I had a wonderful suprise. A reciept I entered for two clearance storage totes ($2ea) actually had a $5 SCR when you buy 2 so I basically made $1 on the clearance bin without even knowing it!! Hope that helps.

Natalie

Hi Deidre,
I’m new with couponing here. I want to ask you, when you print the coupon from the coupon.com or redplum, etc, how do you make your print just black ink, because my printer is automatically print with the colour. My husband just change the ink 2 weeks ago and now the ink it’s gone already. My printer is Lexmark. I dont know if you know about this? Thks Deidre , you are a blessing for us. GBU and yours

Deidre

I print in black and white only. I have never had a problem with them.
Cheryl

Make sure your printing preference is set to a default setting of black and white or gray scale – if you continue to have problems with it, try removing your color cartridge and only use the black and white! Can’t afford to spend our coupon savings on ink**** If you are lucky enough to live near a Costco, they will refill a large variety of cartridges for $7.99 to $9.99!

Natalie

do you set up your printer to be blank ink only ? Do you know how to do it? Thks Deidre

Deidre

I go to start, devices and printers, I right-click on my printer and click on printer Properties, then Preferences, then Features, then finally it lets me choose grayscale instead of color

mercedes

does Vons adjusted coupon? like if something is .99 and you have a coupons for $1.00 will they adjusted the coupon and give it to you free or they wont take it?

careina

how do i send you my mailing address to get coupons in the mail?

natalin

hi…Deidew

I want to ask you I saw the digital coupon from Kroger said that “FREE
Glade® Expressions® Fragrance Mist Refill ” When you buy ONE (1) Glade®
Expressions® Fragrance Mist Starter,

so if ….I have a coupon from Newspaper said : FREE Glade® Expressions®
Fragrance Mist Starter ” When you buy ONE (1) Glade® Expressions®
Fragrance Mist Refill…

Is it mean free or not??? I’m a newbies for this coupon.Thks alot for your help.

natalin

Sorry I mean … Deidre….just miss type. Thks alot.
Deidre

I don’t think you are supposed to stack Kroger coupons, at my Smith’s you are just supposed to use one on your card or the manufacturer, but not both.

Abby

hi im new here, we only have Walmart, Dollar General and Freds here i didnt subscribe for sunday newspaper yet. Do you have any suggestion for me. I lived in Louisvelle, Mississippi. Thanks

munyan

There are lots of great printable on facebook and at sites like coupons dot com or smartsource dot com.

Brenda

I don’t understand the RR coupon I got from the previous week, how do you know if you can use them and get the new RR coupon, example mine says $3.00 compliments from P&G retailer P&G 2150 Sunnybrook??

Visionary6733

I went to CVS today to buy the toothbush and tooth paste,deal that in the weekly ad @$2.99 a piece. I presented the cashier with a $1.00 coupon for each. She charge me $4.40 after $2.00 off with the coupon and gave me back $4.00 in extra bucks reward. can you please explain if this is correct? Thank You

HelperJen

If you only had the two items that cost $2.99 from the sale you should have paid $3.98 instead of $4.40. Everything else is right.
- Visionary6733
  
  Thank You for you quick response.
  On the receipt they charge me .42 ga taxes .
  Can you let me know about the .42 taxes.
  
  Thank You
  - HelperJen
    
    Taxes are normal depending on the state in which you live.

Gina Goodman

Question for anyone who can help me. I am only on my 2nd week of couponing and live in western pa. I have Walmart, Kmart, CVS, RiteAid, Giant Eagle, Dollar General, and Target near me. I am still trying to figure out how to get things for free or at least close enough too. I only plan of spending $20 OOP a week at most. I am a family of 4. Last week for my first couponing trip $99.65 worth of stuff and paid $61.18. How do i bring my total OOP way down to $20 and build up my stock pile including food? All i got last week was things that weren’t food? Also is there anyone in Western Pa that could meet me at some store and teach me?

Deidre

The best deals are on non-food items usually. Such as razors, diapers, shampoo, etc… so those are the things I get more my deals on, and use my savings to buy fresh produce and meat and eat less processed foods. But that is just me, everyone has their own way of doing it. Don’t get upset if you aren’t saving 90% on food items – extreme couponing like on that show is usually just fraud. But you can get 90% off or free shampoos, razors, etc! You are lucky to live near a CVS, you can get some amazing deals there.
- Cheryl
  
  I agree Deidre about living near a CVS. For the longest time I was too scared to venture out from Rite Aid and Wal Greens for me, learn yet another store’s coupon policy. I have found that I was missing out! Although they may limit a great weekly deal to “1 per household” I’ve been able to partner with my mother a few times to benefit not only her on items she enjoys but for my family and those we enjoy best! Thanks for all you do and share with us!
Elizarae

I agree 100% with what Deidre said! I do the same by saving big on non-perishables and using those savings for fresh foods. While $20 a week is an ideal goal, it’s not going to happen overnight. Building a stockpile will help you get to that goal, but building a stockpile will cost more money up front and less and less over time. Start small, say cutting your current grocery spending by 20% each month. As you get better at finding deals and couponing, you’ll soon be where you want to be.
Cheryl

It has taken me a while to learn but you have to shop the deals of the week to collect the items you and your family enjoy. As some of the other readers have shared, you begin to have a stock pile of grocery items that will reduce your weekly OOP expenses of making your routine meals more and more, week after week. Don’t forget milk and eggs are sold at most of the drug stores (e.g. CVS, Rite Aid, Wal Greens, etc.). When you see a deal on razors at your local drug store, for example the Gillette brand for $9.99, less a $5 coupon, combined with a $5 or $4 reward for your next purchase – use that reward to grab a gallon of milk, carton of eggs, bread, etc. Stick with it, it will get easier!

Jentry Nielsen

I’m new to couponing and this was so extremely helpful! Thanks so much for sharing! Can’t wait to get into it!

Ernestine Baskin

what is “green Bag Tag ECB?

Elizarae

At CVS, you can purchase a Green Bag Tag, which is a leaf-shaped tag that you can attach to any reusable shopping bag. It costs $0.99. Whenever you checkout at CVS using your reusable bag, have the cashier scan your Green Bag Tag and for every 4 scans, you will receive a $1.00 ECB!
- Cheryl
  
  Wow – thank you for the information! That will add up fast!

  I did that as I have several times in the past and for some reason tonight it would change the “local” coupons but when I tried to go back to the printable coupons the zip/coupons remained the same as before.

Yes, you can price match at Walmart and use coupons. Their price matching policy and coupon policy are on their website and neither one excludes the other. I would bring both in with you next time.

I have a question about price matching. Where I live there is no CVS, Rite-Aid, K-mart, or Kroger… Could their sale prices still be price matched at my Wal-mart?

Deidre

No, they only match near-by competitors

ok first thing i want to say is i really love your blog and have tried a few of your deal sceneros. however, when i tried to match my own deals i feel like i’m spending way too much money. i hit the stores at least 3 times weekly and each time spending up in the $10s or $20s for a few items. don’t know if i’m doing it correctly because i personally feel like it’s been a month into couponing now and i’m not saving but shopping more spending more for things i don’t really need.
PROBLEM IS: i’ve got (3) $10 of $35 purchase and (4) 20% off single item…..i really need some help to put together some great deals to make the most out of what i got to work with since i have been pouring way too much money just in the last month or so.
i plan on shopping tomorrow…..and some of the things i really need are:
-diapers-wipes-detergent-paper products-cleaning supplies-food/snacks/sodas-household goods…..
just about everythings else walgreens offers but less on health/meds products….
thanks i really appreciate it….

Elizarae

You will shop a lot more and maybe not cut back on spending at first, but realize that you are getting more for your buck. Don’t chase after every deal just because its a good one. Focus on things your family will definitely use and focus your dollars there. Once you have built up a stockpile, you will go to the store less and less because you will have what you need at home.

Kelly

I was just at KMart and prior to this trip they always accepted a coupon on a free item from BOGO promotion (for example BOGO vitamins, they would take a q on each bottle) today, they told me that was never part of the policy and anyone doing it previously did it by mistake. I couldn’t find a clear definition in their policy but see that you have blogged using a q with a free item, what is the policy exactly on BOGO items? Thank You!

  Does the Corporate KMart policy say this as clearly as your site because I will print it out and take my coupon and receipt back to the store, lol.
  - HelperJen
    
    I was just reading the official policy and they don’t spell it out as clearly as we do. In our experience it does work BUT not all stores have to accept them. It’s up to the manager’s discretion. Sounds like yours will not.
Deidre

Probably just that cashier, I’d use a different one next time, they scan find at mine on BOGO all the time

CVS REFUSED REFUND…..ACCUSED ME OF COUPON FRAUD…..WHAT SHOULD I DO?

i’ve just started couponing a couple of months ago and spent well over $200 on things i didn’t really need and was just buying every deal in the cvs ad. today i went over my stockpile and realized i didn’t need several items such as the EURCERINE items i purchased back in mid feb as part of promo deal “BUY $20, get $10 ECB” using $4 ECB AND $11.50 OOP AND A FEW COLGATES purchased last week using $3 ECB, AND $7.79 OOP. well i decided i don’t need all that toothpaste and eurcerine cream so i called my neighborhood CVS, where i have been shopping 2-3 times weekly and spoke to manager about their return policy and explained to her i have some items i bought with part ecb and part debit, she told me it was ok. when i got there, the cashier REFUSED TO LET ME DO A RETURN AND I TOLD HER I SPOKE TO THE MANAGER AND SHE SAID TO COME IN…SHE PHONE THE MANAGER AND TOLD HER SHE’S NOT DOING IT AND THAT I WAS A “COUPONER”. SHE THEN ACCUSED ME OF DEFRAUDING CVS AND THAT WHAT I WAS DOING IS EXACTLY WHAT SHE CALLS “COUPON FRAUD”. i of course apologized and told her i have lack of knowledge about their return policy and that i was new to it all, and she knows that from day one when she met me, buying those 12 cases of coke for $30….NOR….have any intention to defraud them……SHE CONTINUED TO HUMILIATE ME INFRONT OF SEVERAL CUSTOMERS AND EMPLOYEES…I EVEN OFFER TO RETURN THE ITEMS FOR JUST MY OOP AND DIDN’T CARE FOR THE ECB OR COUPON AMOUNT…..SHE STILL REFUSED AND I WAS ASKED TO LEAVE…..

C’MON ALMOST $200 SPENT AND NOT A SINGLE RETURN MADE UNTIL TODAY….AND SHE JUDGE ME THAT WAY….???
SO WHAT SHOULD I DO??? TAKE IT TO ANOTHER CVS TO SEE IF THEY WILL DO IT, OR SHOULD I JUST THROW THEM BACK INTO MY STOCKPILE AND FORGET ABOUT IT…AND JUST REMIND MYSELF IN THE FUTURE NOT TO CHASE DEALS AND JUST BUY WHAT I KNOW I WILL USE…
ANY SUGGESTIONS OR ADVISE???

Elizarae

That is all very frustrating. The first thing I would do is call Customer Service and let them know what happened. Be sure to mention the cashier’s name and manager’s name if you have them. Hopefully, they will speak to the manager directly. Next time something like this happens, don’t be afraid to stand outside and call Customer Service right then and there. You could try returning at another CVS and see what happens, usually they don’t have issues with returning items that you used coupons on or earned ECBs from. They will only give you a refund for the amount you paid OOP and the rest will be on a CVS Cash Card. It shouldn’t be a big deal.
With regard to chasing deals, many newbies get caught up in the good deals and buy everything even though they don’t need it…I was once there. Even if the deal is good, only buy the item if you know you will use it or you can donate it. Speaking of which, if you can’t return the items, you can choose to keep them or donate them. Good luck!

Does Walmart really give you the overage? My Walmart wont do it even though it does say it on their policy. What should I do?

LoveBeautyNGlam

Yes Walmart does give overage. If your Walmart will not I suggest you print out the coupon policy directly from their site, have Walmart’s corporate number saved in your cell phone. Expect to get your overage and if they do not give it, tell them you have the coupon policy with you if they’d like to see it or would they rather you speak to their manager about it. If you do not want to do anything at the register then just tell the cashier you can/will take your order to the service desk and would like to speak to a manager there. Show them the coupon policy at the service desk and where you got it from. Wait for them to tell you no they won’t do it for you to make your next move, hopefully they will do 1 of 2 things, follow through with the policy and give you the overage or look into the coupon policy, find out it’s legit which then leads to giving you the overage. If the outcome is them still telling you no then, depending on if the situation is tense or relaxed, you can either let them know you will be calling their corporate office or ask them to call corporate.

Obviously this is all a big hassle but since it’s your local Walmart, if you don’t do something about it, nothing will change. It’s really just ignorance and lack of training. This is something I had to go through with more than 1 store in my area when I first started couponing, but it was definitely worth it in the end.

Liz

Why does my CVS considers ESBs as coupons and put a limit of how many of them I can use per transaction? For example, another day after running all of my CVS coupons and Manufacturer coupons, I gave the cashier my ESBs for the transaction (a $10, a $6, a $5 and a $7), but only the $10 and the $6 go through, then the machine beeped and told the cashier that it exceeds the limit of coupons and would not let him to put any more of them in. I talked to the manager but she’s so rude and told me that it was because I used too many coupons. I told her that all of my coupons went through, I had 11 items and I only gave him 11 coupons (mixed between CVS and manufacturer), now I just spend my ESBs to lower my out of pocket but she wouldn’t let me so I ended up spending a lot more than I planned to. But am I right? As what I know, ESBs are considered like in-store cash and you can use as many as you want per transaction and should not beep or give me a problem? Any suggestion? I am a newbie and this kind of hassle makes me scared to continue :((

Elizarae

You can only use as many ECBs that equal or total less than your subtotal after all other manufacturers coupons and before tax. In your situation, was your subtotal $28 after all other coupons and before tax? If it only took the $10 and $6, then your total must have only been a little more than $16.
- Liz
  
  My total before tax after the $10 and the $6 went through is $12 so the $7 and the $5 will bring it down to $0. but the machine just beeped and didn’t let him put it in anymore. However, I went to another CVS which is very far away, I had 2 huggies diaper jumbo packs and gave them 3 extra bucks ($5, $4, $1) and 3 coupons (2 Mnuf and 1 CVS), it also beeped at the last CVS coupon saying the same thing. However, this manager is very considerate and she understood and had the cashier override it since I didn’t do violate any rule. I ended up spending a little more than $3 out of pocket and was happy. However, the nice CVS is way far away from home so I can only go once in a while. I don’t know why it just happened like that. No one I know do couponing at CVS has this kind of problem so I am totally confused.
  - LoveBeautyNGlam
    
    ECB’s(ExtraCare Bucks) are not counted towards your coupon total and are not the same thing. I linked the coupon policy at the bottom and there is one part that clearly states, “There is no limit to the amount of ECBs that may be used in a transaction as long as it does not exceed the transaction total.” Which is what I think happened in the first CVS closest to your home and I don’t think they clearly explained why it was not accepting all your coupons and ECBs for that transaction. Now in my CVS if this happens to me they tell me I can use the ECB but since they don’t give cash back I’ll be losing out on X amount of dollars. It also means the cashier (or manager I’m not sure) has to manually do some magic and zero out my total.
    
    Soooo what I really think that at the “mean” CVS that it did NOT tell them that it was exceeds the number of coupons, in fact I’m sure of. I’m willing to bet they didn’t know why it was beeping and they are just telling you the easiest thing, it won’t work, you can’t do it. Which is true, BUT you may be able to juggle around those ECB’s and apply them in a different order to save yourself a couple more bucks. (That’s if this was the issue.)
    
    Here is a link to CVS’s coupon policy (in .pdf format) If you can print this out and bring it with you next time and every time you go.

natalin

Hi Liz, Just ask the cashier how much the tax, and how much the total. The Ecb can not pay the taxes. So …. you must pay the taxes from your Out of Pocket (OOP). Kind of confunsing the 1st time, but you will learn. I’m newbie too for couponing :):) .
So.. Your subtotal spend must equals/ higher than the total of coupon and total of ECB. Try to write down in the piece of paper , before you pay everthing ( write down how much the subtotal of your shopping, how much the coupon, how much the ECB/ %, and how much you will get the ECB from your future shopping )and claculate everything. I spend alot time in CVS just to tried to figure out everything. CVS is the best place to shop for razor, soap, lotion, toothpaste, shampoo, diapers, cosmetic, toilet paper, klenex, etc. GBU .

Mrs.Callen

i have a question about the General Mills cereal deal at Kroger. I have 5 of the Save a $1.00 on two boxes and Kroger has the special buy 10 save $5 instantl what would my final cost be using the 5 coupons i have along with the sale?

Brooke Bielen

I don’t know what the cost of the cereal is, but you take the cost of the cereal x 10 to get the total cost. Then -$5 (Kroger special). Then -$1 (your coupons), and the total should be your final cost.

Wags policy states you cannot redeem points and earn points in the same transaction. How are you able to? I purchased and item I should have recieved 1000 pts but I did not. I paid for my purchase with BRP. Can you explain how you are doing this. Thanks

Elizarae

Right, you cannot earn points in the same transaction that you are redeeming them. We never post deals where you redeem points and earn them at the same time. Here are the scenarios for this week that show rolling RRs and Balance Rewards Points, but not points on points. http://www.cuckooforcoupondeals.com/weekly/walgreens/walgreens-balance-rewards-register-rewards-scenarios-77-71313/

Wow…this stuff is confusing! Ok I did the Reach tooth brush deal at Walgreens. I have 8 of the rewards coupons for $2.00 each to be used on anything over the value of the coupon. My question is, do I need to buy 8 items or can I use them to buy something like a box of diapers? Since I have these rewards coupon what is the best way to use them?

Elizarae

Walgreens RRs are considered manufacturer coupons and the Walgreens coupon policy requires that you have as many products as manufacturer coupons are being applied. So, if you have 8 RRs, you’ll need 8 products in order to use them all. If you want to purchase diapers with them, you could buy the box of diapers and get 7 cheap “filler” items (like a $0.10 pencil or something).

Can u tell me if Walgreens can limit, the number of register coupons I can use individually, on an item that is not advertised.

Elizarae

I’m not sure what you mean exactly, but Walgreens (and all stores) only allow one manufacturer coupon per item. Register Rewards are manufacturer coupons, so you can only use one per item. If you are already using a newspaper or printable manufacturer coupon, you must buy another item (filler item) if you want to also use a register reward

- Linda Jackson
  
  Okay, let me try again. I purchased the caress soap on sale for $1, the register reward printed a register reward for $ 1.50. I wanted 6 of them. But the manager said that I could only roller one time. I looked at the policy, it states that there is only a limits on sales in the weekly, it says nothing about items not advertised.
  - Elizarae
    
    Oh I see what you’re saying. Managers do have the discretion to limit the number of items bought, whether or not they are on sale, advertised, or produce a register reward. You might try another store if this one will only allow you to buy one.

I am interesting in getting in getting coupons sent to me from other states. How do I do this?

Gloria

A good way to do this is to subscribe to a newspaper that doesn’t just send locally. Another way is to order specific coupons you want from a coupon clipping website. You can get really nice deals from whole inserts or even individuals. I recommend Klip2save, Couponbeat, and Coupondede. If you have family in another state or region, ask that they buy their newspaper for you, and pay them through paypal. I also ask my friends back home if they get the sunday newspaper to send me the coupons they get. I hope this helps!

None of our scenarios for the P&G rebate are under $30 after coupons – we make sure they are over $30 after coupons.

My CVS refuses the 30% coupon because I was getting extra bucks back. They claim it qualifies as “being on sale” which doesn’t make any sense because it’s regular price. Does anyone else have this issue? I tried it today with the Physicia’s Formula deal you posted.

Hi, I’m new to couponing! I need to take free classes to break it down for me. Can anyone point me in the right direction to aNY video/virtual classes? TIA

Hi I am just lost here. I was wondering, if the coupons that say print can some how be downloaded on to your smart phone or accessed by your smart phone? Will stores allow you to do that? I am trying this new app for grocery shopping that has seemed to help a bit, however I still haven’t figured out how to do this couponing thing. If anyone in the greater Kansas city area coupons and is in this group could help me I would be so so very grateful.

Jonathan Dower

Well I can’t find one that actually works or that takes you back to the beginning of signing up for it period..

Christina Grant

There is a $25 Amazon Gift Card When You Sign Up For Amazon Prime For $99* thru Topcashback but it says only for new prime users. My subscription ended in September. Do you think I would be considered a new user again? Has anyone tried this and gotten the $25 gift card?

Jen

I can’t find that offer to look – it must be targeted for you alone. I would think if you have not had it for 30 days you would be considered new – but I can’t guarantee that.

  Thank you.

If you have the Ebates app there are amazing cash back offers that will come in a check in February. On line at Kohls is 10% through the app, Walmart is 7% and ToysRUs is 6%. So at Kohls if you purchase 100.00 in merchandise you get $10.00 from Ebates and $30.00 in Kohls Cash!

Do you know if the great sale on hand soaps at Bath and Body Works is this weekend (12/10)?

Jen

We haven’t heard that. They have already done hand soaps several times for $3 each. Do you have any more details?
- Lora
  
  The past 2 years they had a Saturday hand soap sale similar to last weekend’s candle sale. I am hoping they do it again this year.

Tabrina

how do I post a deal I just found at kmart?

Jen

You can email it to helperjen@cuckooforcoupondeals.com

Jen

That might be a unique offer to your account. When I place the items in my cart I don’t get any points.

Watch for the lists for Target, CVS, Rite Aid and Walgreen’s today for the best deals at those stores. You can also look up coupons in the coupon database.

I looked forward to the Saturday posts every week to see the breakdowns of weekly deals from store ads and coupons to use to maximize the savings…I haven’t seen this for a few weeks. Will these types of posts be coming back? I saved so much time and money using them. I miss them and hope to see them again soon!

Catherine
