I’ve done couponing in spurts, but haven’t done it nearly as much since moving to Alaska. They put far fewer coupons in the paper. However, I just discovered my favorite grocery store has the ability to load coupons to your customer loyalty card which has me using them more often.
Good (and funny) tips! As long as anyone doesn’t get as nutso as the extremes on the TLC show!
Cute list. I especially like the cart rage one
I’ve started couponing at my grocery store with their app and it’s addicting. I’ve been looking through the newpapers and finding less and less things that I actually buy, so I need to use some of those tips!
I don’t know about becoming an extreme couponer but I would love to learn how to use coupons more effectively and more often!
