8 Things You Need To Know Before You Start Couponing

In This Article:

Couponing sounds all great and fun, which it definitely is, but before you become an expert couponer there are some things you need to know before you get started.

1. Most store ads/weekly deals are Sunday till Saturday.

Most store ads/weekly deals are Sunday till Saturday.

2. Coupon inserts are found in your regional Sunday newspapers.

They can also be purchased at gas stations, pharmacies, and sometimes dollar tree. I recommend two newspapers a week to start off.

3. There are 3 brands of coupon inserts.

Smart Source (SS)

Retail Me Not (RMN)

And P&G

4. Not all inserts come every week.

P&G comes monthly usually the Sunday closest to the beginning of the month and SS & RMN are different each week like

1 SS and 2 RMN,

2 SS and 2 RMN and so on

5. Not every newspapers have the same coupons.

Some areas get the basic coupon inserts but some major areas get double that amount. I live in an average coupon insert area so I don't get as many coupons and deals as others, but you can order them online if you really want them.

6. You can print coupons on Coupons.com.

Coupons.com is a great place to print coupons if you need more and find coupons from other areas. You can also print two coupons per device (one coupon per print) on Coupons.com And don't forget to download the app on your phone for more coupon.

7. You can NOT use an insert coupon and Coupons.com coupon on 1 item.

Unless you have three of the same item and use two coupons from the inserts and one coupon from Coupons.com

8. You CAN use a store coupon and insert/Coupons.com on the same item.

Insert/Coupons.com are manufacture coupons but store coupons are different because the store is giving them out to sell more products.

I hope this helps you save money and keeps your wallet full!!!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
