Coupons - To cut or not to cut?
Coupons, what do you think of them helpful or not. I love coupons, I think that they can be very helpful, but I am well aware that to do them justice it takes time. I am trying to build my stash back and keep up better with my savings. My current monthly grocery budget, including Costco, is $200.00 a month. I would really like to get it down below the $150.00 range. With trying to get better about being more frugal I am trying to collect more coupons without by multiple Sunday papers, as I do now. While walking around the neighborhood today I noticed that many people are very lax about getting their Sunday papers. The ones that diligently pick them up have them in trash already. My thought and proposal is; if you are already getting the Sunday paper and you don't use the coupons, could I have them? I will gladly come by and pick up them up. (if you live in Birmingham) Although if you are using your coupons, good for you!!!! I would not want to take anyone's savings from them!!! I am just trying to take advantage of those who have them in the recycling bin the next day. I would also like to warn you if you are putting it in the trash and then you go back and notice that they are gone, it was me, once they are on the street they are fair game!!!! Happy cutting!!! If you have any money saving tips coupon related or not, I would love to hear them.
Great link to some printable coupons. If you press the back button on your browser you can print the coupon for a second time with a different barcode.

Thanks!!!!
I use Upromise and it is super helpful. I just haven't been able to figure out how to not have to buy 5 newspapers on Sunday!

Good tips! I've got to get better at saving in that department. I cut coupons with the intention of using them, but never remember to bring them with me!

If you haven't already you should check this site out - www.southernsavers.com I have just recently decided to start trying to do the coupon/savings thing. It seems like this site does a lot of the work for you. So far I have only really paid attention on the postings about Publix since that is usually where I shop.
