Here are some common things to know to get started:
First thing to get you started is you need to get coupons, the ones in newspaper “inserts”, the printable kinds, and the “high value” mailed ones.
To get printable coupons
Check out:
I will tell you when great mailable coupons are out there, I will also highlight some great printable coupons, but I can’t get you any inserts, sorry! I would suggest getting at least 4 newspapers (or coupons) from your neighbors, work, friends, and family. There are two other ways of getting newspapers.
1. Ask your delievery person if they have extra
2. Go to your local gas station late Sunday/Early Monday and ask for just the inserts, they will still get credit for turning in the rest of the paper
3. Local restaurants, libraries, or coffee shops will usually have left over newspapers.
Now some stuff you should know:
After you get your coupons in your hands you need to shop the SALES! But Don’t run out and use that coupon the moment you get it! You wait until a good sale to use it–that is playing the coupon game!
The best places to get your stockpile going are CVS, Rite Aid, and Walgreens I highlight the good deals that you can grab there each week! There are literally items you can get for FREE!
Read up on how to shop at each of those stores over on the Store Guides page, once there just click on the store you would like to learn about!
To shop at your local grocery store I have a few tips:
Make your list based on what is on sale NOT what you “need” to eat that week–what I mean that by that is not that you shouldn’t buy sugar if you need it, but you don’t have to have pork that week if its not on sale
Once you make your list, find out if there are any coupons to match with it. Search our coupon database here!
Combine Store Deals with coupons–meaning Catalina deals and instant savings deals with coupons! I love getting free items this way!
Thank you for all of the information, I am new to couponing but did get extra inserts from library. It doesn’t hurt to ask.
Thanks for participating in Dash 4 Cash!
Love Dash 4 cash!!!
Hi Janel,
I am a marketing coordinator for a revolutionary drink that provides natural, sustained energy while actually bolstering one’s health. Phix is an all-natural, organic & vegan energy drink. The purpose of our drink is to provide energy while still promoting a healthy, lifestyle, as our convenient, on-the-go packets include 14 vitamins (including 4 different energy providing B-Vitamins) and minerals, antioxidants, yerba mate, and NADH to not only enhance physical energy levels, but provide mental focus and clarity as well. This is intended for hardworking people (i.e. Moms) who need a little extra boost of energy but would never sacrifice their health to get it! Due to its all-natural composition, besides the obvious health benefits, there is no “crash” or jitters, commonly associated with standard energy drinks—but rather a smooth sustained energy.
To put the icing on the cake, everything from our all-natural, organic, and vegan ingredients, to our boxing, packaging, and shipping is Green! We use completely eco-friendly materials for our boxing and packaging, and even our shipping peanuts are biodegradable. Not to mention our product rocks!
We would love to send you samples and have you write a review as well as host a giveaway! If you have any questions or concerns feel free to check out our website at http://www.Phix.com or contact me directly at ari@phix.com.
