I buy 2 or 3 Sunday papers for the inserts and clip them. I also bid on them on ebay if it is something we use and buy often.
I preload my grocery store card with e-coupons on the store website, and use the flier to make my list and clean up on deals with my coupon file.

I do most of my couponing online. I use Coupons.com all the time. It is the best place to get $5 off Enfamil formula. That is a huge savings for us. The rest of my coupons online come from posting on FB by you, freebies4mom, and specials by manufacturers. I love coupons and I love that I dont have to pull out scissors to clip them!!

I use my Coupons and I have 3 friends who save their coupons (because they just don’t use them – their bad) for me and then go to my favorite site for deal ideas and the paper inserts for sales and then assemble my coupons into seperate envelopes for each store and away I go to get my great deals and save all my money!!!

I get the Sunday’s paper, check coupon.com and also go to my fav products web site to get more Qs; usually I put them all together look into the sales of the week and go for it…
I love couponing, I have been saving some money since I started doing it -about 3 months now-. Thanks!!!

i did the survey.

I buy 3-4 copies of the Sunday paper each week that there are coupons in it. I also print them from Coupons.com. I find afullcup.com and hotcouponworld.com to be pretty helpful in knowing how to use coupons.
Vicki
I buy two papers when they have good coupons and I use internet coupons and my daughter and I trade coupons. My niece and my daughter are the ones who really turned me on to couponing.

I got tired of clipping and spending so much time with the sunday papers. I have been couponing for over a year and have changed my methods several times. Currently I look at the match ups for the stores I shop at then I make a list of what I will be buying then I print the coupons and or BUY them! I have found out I spend less if not the same if I would have bought the sunday paper and I don’t have a HUGE stack of papers to recycle! It is important to me to buy coupons from a local site. I order the coupons NLT Monday so I get them in time to use before the sales end on Saturday. When I shop, I only shop by my list of what I plan on buying. Since I have been doing this long enough I already figured out the cycles and know when to buy my coupons ahead for the seasonal sales. I know beans and canned tomates are coming up so if a coupons comes out I buy knowing their will be a future sale. This prediction helps lessen my shipping costs. So because of these changes, I get to spend more time with my family rather than cutting, sorting and filing and making a mess!

I collect the coupons from my family members, plus my own. I usually spend Monday going thru and clipping. I sort them by expiration date. Scary, but I usually know what coupons I have regardless of their order. I keep it simple. When I make my list I go thru my coupons, attach with my list and off I go. :-)

LOL, no, you don’t have to — but that doesn’t mean that I don’t enjoy reading what you all have to say!
bonnie
I search for them, I print them, I cut them out, I use them at the store and sometimes I even get coupons back. Its so easy,and its so GREAT TO SAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amber
I use lots of sights to get coupons, i get them from the papers and order them off ebay. If it wasnt for coupons we WOULDNT have survived the downfall of the economy. I cant even begin to tell you how much money i have saved in the last two years. I used to never use coupons i shopped whenever and however and now i look for a coupon for whatever we are doing lol
Heather A
I don’t discriminate…I use coupons from any source I can get my hands on. Especially the organic ones. I took the survey and your site was in my top 5. Thanks for the deals ;)

I clip coupons from the Sunday paper, plus I refer to your posts along with Common Sense with Money and Money Saving Mom’s posts. I used to use a 3 ring binder, but that seemed way more time consuming and take up more room in my cart, so now I use an index card holder and things go much swifter. Thanks for everything that you do.

How do I coupon? I get the Sunday paper and so does my mom. She feels she is past the coupon stage. lol Have my Grandma save all coupons that come past her. I read DSM site everyday and check in before I head to a store. Grab the ad, coupons and membership card before I head out. I am often shopping with my two little ones so this keeps me organized when I feel like a circus. A trick I learned for those crazy Target receipts is to count up how much the coupons are worth then count each on the receipt after. Also just got a expandable file organizer to keep store coupons together with their current ads and keep the remainder of unclipped coupons with the release date. I noticed that when a great deal is posted the release date of the coupon is listed next to it. This makes for quick reference.

I am a coupon/freebie nut. I start out my day checking out all my favorite sites for coupons and free stuff. I am very fortunate to live within 2 miles of my favorite stores, so I always make a map of which stores I will get the best deals for my money. I enjoy receiving free things in the mail, especially the free magazine subscriptions.It is fun using my coupons,especially when I can get items for just 50 cents or free. I tend to donate to the many soup kitchens or other businesses that can use them. When many local events just ask for canned goods ( to help stock the food bank) for the entry fee – my family enjoys these nights out. Thank you to DSM and all other bloggers for teaching me new coupon ideas

I subscribe to two different newspapers daily. On Sundays, I stop by my local Starbucks and am always able to get 2-3 more sets of coupon inserts. Sometimes, the workers even save them for me.

Thanks for the info..!!

i did the survey!
Tamara
I use the coupons that come in the local Sunday paper (most of my family saves theirs for me), download to customer card and print off the internet. I have most of the family on board to help with the coupons. Sitting at the table clipping coupons acutally gives me and my teenage daughter time to talk about her week

I tried opening the link to the survey in two different web browsers but couldn’t get it to work. Is the survey working?
