Advanced Couponing!

Hey, Everyone

I attended a couponing class to day as a student.  No, I do not know all there is to know about couponing.  I learn something new everyday about couponing.

Today, I learned how to coupon at Walgreens!  I am so excited because there is a brand new Walgreens in my community.  The Walgreens had yet to open when we left Maryland in January.  I can count the times that I have shopped in Walgreens on a couple of fingers.

The main reason that I rarely shop there is their rewards programs are so very difficult to navigate.  Balance rewards, register rewards, coupon books, etc. all left me in an ignorant  coupon daze.  I hate to appear stupid while couponing and steered clear so as not to do so.

Alas, the class today was an "Advanced Coupon Class" in Tampa, FL.  2.5 hours on all things Walgreens and CVS.  It was taught by Katie of TrueCouponing.com and I learned a whole bunch and can't wait to get home to follow up and try out some of the things I learned. 

Of course, you will all benefit from my newly acquired knowledge because I love to share.  In the meantime, check out the website True Couponing check out their "New to Couponing" link, too.  The Advanced Walgreens and CVS Guides will give you lots of information for shopping at these two stores.

Unfortunately, most of you shop at stores that are not in Florida.  I really wish we had a Publix in Maryland.  On the other hand, I would rather keep our double and triple coupons than shop in Florida with no doubling...anywhere that I could find.  What a bummer!

Don't forget there are two inserts Sunday in the Washington Post and most metro newspapers.

Happy Couponing!

Printable Coupons Galore!

Hey, Everyone!

Click this link for Johnson & Johnson Health Products - Print these ASAP before they reach their 150,000 print limit.  After you print, go back to the original link and select the coupons to print a second time.

When I have a choice, I always my zip code 20705 and then one from another area that usually gives me a higher number and/or value coupon selection.  I use 33603 (Tampa, FL).  Usually, zip codes from larger metropolitan areas will give the higher number of printable coupons and better value, too.

I am currently compiling a list of the zip codes that give me the highest number of coupons to print on most websites that use zip codes.  I will send those out with directions on how to change the zips on each of the websites.  Look for it next week. 

Take note: I always use the other zip codes for Coupons.com and CouponNetwork.com
Some of the additional coupons may be for products that are not available in your local area.

You can change the zip codes for the following sites:  RedPlum.com,Smart Source.com, GroceryCouponCart.comCouponNetwork.com, Coupons.com

Please let me know if these links (P&G, Johnson & Johnson, or Earthbound) DO NOT work for you.  I get lots of great emails directly from manufacturers and do not want to flood your inbox with "forwarded" emails from each one.  But, if those links work for you, I can send all of the emails using links in a single email. 

I will only expect a response if the links do not work or you just want to, "Hi!".
