Where to Get Coupons?
I get asked the questions a lot, “Where to get coupons?” or “Where do I find coupons?”
So I thought I would put together a Post for everyone with tips, tricks, hints etc……on proper ways to get coupons. Yes I said proper LOL…..none of these questionable or even illegal ways that you see portrayed on the television show “Extreme Couponing”. As always, we portray coupoing the Right Way to ensure that couponing and our money savings ways will be around for a long time. As with anything, if it starts to be abused manufacturers will do away with couponing and it will ruin it for everyone else.
These are all acceptable ways to find, collect, print coupons to build your stash and help you start to save 50% or more on your grocery bill, clothing expenses, household items, dining out, entertainment…you get the idea LOL
I will add to the “Where to Get Coupons” list below as we go with any new information or sources are added. Also please feel free to leave comments on other ways you have found that may not be listed here.
target.com
smartsource.com
coupons.com
There are many other printable coupon sources as well…….I
I often get asked is it worth the ink and paper to print all these coupons. In my experience…YES. I would get a laser printer however…the printer and ink cartridges are a little more expensive upfront but pay for themselves many times over. The laser ink cartridges last MUCH longer and the price per coupon printed is a lot less. The laser printers themselves in my experience also hold up a lot longer and you won;t be replacing them as often.
There are many great coupon blogs that post this information for you. We will weed through all those newsletters and pull out the coupons and put them in one convenient place. Not only from the newsletters but printable coupons, online promo codes, hot deals etc…..all in one consolidated place. The best part is not only do we tell you about what coupon offers are out there….but we even show you some of the best places to match those coupons up to get the biggest savings.
I highly recommend following a blog like ours to maximize your coupon saving potential. We post educational information (like this post) so you can master couponing and increase your savings. follow us on Facebook, To make sure you don’t miss any money saving posts.
Also if you follow a blog (like ours again….LOL), you will often see were we post deals to get subscriptions to these magazines for a little bit of nothing.
The best way is to email them through the contact form on their website or even to call there customer service number on the back of the products. I’ll be honest….I have better luck with calling Them! The key is to be nice, respectful and not to have the attitude that you are entitled to their coupons. Yes, I have to say that….you would be surprised by some of the stories I hear from the manufacturers I talk to.
As you can see there are many places to get coupons. We will keep building on this list until we have covered them all. As I mentioned above, please feel free to comment with any suggestions or ideas you have for me to add to the list!

Where to Get Coupons – Source # 1 – Newspaper Inserts and Ads
I’m guessing everyone is familiar with the coupon inserts that come in Sunday’s paper. There can be multiple inserts each week from companies like SmartSource, RedPlum, P&G etc… But a lot of people probably don’t realize that many newspapers across the country will send out a second set of the same coupons in one of the weekday issues.- Sunday newspaper
- Weekday paper (some include a 2nd copy during the week)
- Make sure to flip through the ads and sales papers that come in the paper. Often times you can find great Restaurant or entertainment deals.
Where to Get Coupons – Source # 2 – Online (Printable)
Online is probably one of the biggest and most popular sources to get coupons. There are many coupons sites, blogs like Coupon Guy/ Coupon Cousins/ and so many others, manufacturer sites etc…that all have coupons to print or information on where to get them. Also, included below is some of the top places to find coupons each month online to print. The SmartSource and RedPlum pages are different coupons than come in the newspaper inserts normally.target.com

Where to Get Coupons – Source # 3 – (Follow a good Coupon Blog)
A lot of companies will put coupons of their products in their email newsletters. However, you will quickly find that this becomes very cumbersome to keep up with and your email gets filled with so many newsletters you can’t keep up. Have no fear….I have a solution for you!There are many great coupon blogs that post this information for you.

Where to Get Coupons – Source # 4 – Magazines
This is actually a great source to find coupons. A lot of times the value of coupons found in magazine ads are a higher value than ones in the inserts or found online. Some great magazines that tend to have coupons in them are listed below.Also if you follow a blog (like ours again….LOL), you will often see were we post deals to get subscriptions to these magazines for a little bit of nothing.
- All You – the #1 magazine for coupons. Has probably 20 or more in each issue.
- Better Homes & Garden
- Good Housekeeping
- Fitness
- Weight Watchers
- Family Circle
- Women’s Day
- …many others
Where to Get Coupons – Source # 5 – Contact your favorite brands
Have something you buy a lot of….? Some favorite products you can’t do without…? Then reach out to those manufacturers and tell them how much you like there products and ask them if they have any coupons. Many will send you coupons in the mail just because you asked. Sometimes you will even hit the jackpot and get some FREE product coupons or high value coupons for their products.The best way is to email them through the contact form on their website or even to call there customer service number on the back of the products. I’ll be honest….I have better luck with calling Them! The key is to be nice, respectful and not to have the attitude that you are entitled to their coupons.

COUPON LINGO
New or old to the coupon world, you may still find yourself wondering at times what on earth all those abbreviations stand for. It almost seems that in this ever changing "game" of couponing, the rules are never the same, and stores use terms that you may not be familiar with. You may have also found yourself looking at a coupon wondering where you can use it, will it double (if you live in a doubles area), and what exactly is the coupon good for. Here's some information that should help clear up some of these issues.
Manufacturers Coupon - This standard lingo at the top of coupon that is valid at any national retail or grocery chain that accepts coupons. These are generally the coupons you can get out of your Sunday newspaper, in-store blinkie machines/tearpads, and internet print sites, such as coupons.com etc.
Store Coupon - This is the term used for a coupon that is valid only at a specific store. These coupons you often find inside of the store circular, and they allow you to get a greater discount beyond the sale price, or get a price that you can only receive by having the coupon. You may also see store coupons that will say "Only good at XXXXXX" That would be a store specific coupon as well.
Catalina Coupons - Catalina's are coupons that print from the small box next to the register called a "Catalina Machine". You can receive various types of coupons from these machines including, manufacturer, store specific, local deals, and OYNO coupons.
Double Coupons - The doubling of coupons is something that is only available in certain regions and each store tends to have a different policy, even stores within the same chain will vary. In general double couponing is when the store will double the face value of a coupon up to a certain about. For example Giant Food doubles coupons up to .99, meaning any coupon for .99 or less will fully double its value, and $1.00 or more will be redeemed at face value. Some store do not offer regular doubling but will occasionally add bonus coupons to their weekly ad to allow doubling of a certain amount of coupons for that specific week. A common question is why do some coupons say do not double or triple and will they double or triple if they say this? The wording is put there to let the store know that the manufacturer does not intend for the coupon to be doubled, and they will not reimburse the store for anything above face value. As for whether or not a store will double a coupon that says do not double is definitely something that will vary from store to store, even cashier to cashier. Generally in my experience unless the cashier "tells" the register to not double, and the coding of the coupon doesn't block it, then the coupon will double. However your best bet is to ask the store what their policy is regarding Double coupons so you are prepared and not throw off at checkout.
ANY VS. EXCLUDES - When you are using a coupon, you need to be sure that it was intended for the exact product you are purchasing. Whether or not it will scan is irrelevant, as the manufacturer has certain intentions for each coupon they issue. If you coupon states "any" and does not list a size or specific type it may be used on any size or type of product listed. However alot of times coupons are much more specific. They will say excludes trial or travel, or valid only on an exact size, scent, or variety. Knowing what your coupon is good on before you try to use it, will allow for a smooth checkout and avoid any unwanted issues.
