6. Wednesday – Grocery store ads come out in
the Mississippi Press and Sun Herald
Sunday – Weekly coupon inserts
There is usually a different amount each week.
Smart Source, Red Plum, P&G.
Holiday weekends usually none.
7. Get Sunday paper
Mississippi Press is $1 at Walmart now
You get the same coupons as in Sun Herald ($1.50)
Make sure when you buy the paper you check for inserts
before you buy
You should know how many inserts will be in your
paper (other bloggers)
Keep inserts for a few months. I keep mine in a plastic
tub with hanging folders to sort by date
8. Get Wednesdays Grocery store ads

Publix

Rouses

10. Start with Price Matching
Everyone will be different
Each family eats differently and buys different products
For couponing, it’s better to not be brand loyal
you will still have a few items you won’t want to give up
On Wednesdays (or sometime before your
shopping trip)
Go through weekly grocery ads/look at their site
It will take you a while to figure out what prices are good
I save the most money weekly by price matching!!

14. I use someone else’s coupon database.
Cuckooforcoupondeals.com
There are coupons listed in this database from
tearpads, online printables and Sunday paper
coupons all listed with expiration dates and where
they can be found
You may not have the coupons she has in her
database. A lot of Sunday insert coupons are regional,
and unfortunately our region doesn’t get a lot of the
really good coupons
15. Nabisco Honey Maid Grahams on sale at Publix Buy
One Get One Free (BOGO) for $4.49
There are $1/1 (one dollar off of one) coupons on the
Nabisco cookies Facebook page.
So at Walmart, you price match the Grahams from
Publix then use two $1/1 coupons making 2 boxes
$2.49 or $1.25 each
Depending on your cashier, it may be cheaper. Lately some of my usual checkers said they
can use Walmart prices for the BOGOs
I got these recently for $.49 each!
16. Create a “Couponing” Facebook page
One that you only use for couponing so it won’t
clutter up your personal page
Follow bloggers on Facebook
They alert followers to good deals and
giveaways
