Every week I browse my local store deals and match them with the coupons I have so I visit the store with the most deals.  Each month I scan my coupons for expiration dates and write on my grocery list which coupons I need to use on that trip and what products to look for.  When my favorite foods are on sale, I stock up so I always have them on hand and save money.

Good idea! ^  I clip my coupons and put them in an evelope.  On the outside of the envelope, I write down the name of the coupon and the expiration date. I only have to glance at the envelope to see what’s in there without digging through it.With the economy the way it is, you can’t but help use coupons!

There’s a slew of coupons you can print off the internet.  But if you ever sign up for them, you might not want to use your primary email address.  I made the mistake of doing that and started receiving 50-100 spams a day.  When I tried to remove myself from a sender, more showed up from other advertisers, etc..  It was like that movie “the blob”.  That was in the old days before I knew removing yourself only makes it worse.

If I sign up for free stuff again, I’m going to create a separate free yahoo or hotmail email account for just that purpose.

OLaneyMc59 that is a great idea to open a separate email account. Many years ago I had an account that I used for shopping only online. My mistake was to use the word shop in the address. Well I received so much spam that I finally changed the account using the word junk in the address. Guess what more junk and spam! I have learned my lesson. So, be careful with what name you use in your address.
