Tiny Tip #5 - Coupons Fa' Days

The hype surrounding coupons has definitely grown over the past few years. With blogs and reality TV shows, coupons have become quite the hype. I do think that with all this buzz, coupons can seem intimidating and overwhelming. But for me, I'm not aiming do save thousands or pay $6.00 for a week's worth of groceries. I just wanna shave off a few bucks wherever I can. As college kids or post-college "adults", couponing can seem way too time consuming to even attempt.

Here are a few tips that I find are quick and easy ways to save $$$:

• Sign up for your local supermarket or convenient store rewards program. - They give points that add up, discounts for just being a member, and special coupons.
• Just don't sign up for too many or it could get out of hand!
• Create an account on P&G Everyday's website; they offer so many new coupons you can print out each week for major brands like Tide, Old Spice, Scope, Crest, Olay, etc.
• Stack coupons: this means you can use store coupons and brand/manufacturers coupons at the same time!
• Bed, Bath, & Beyond will accept their store coupons no matter how expired they are so you can save them for more expensive purchases.
• If you have a CVS Extra Care card, you can send coupons to your card so you don't have to worry about printing them out.
