To Ronsr:
I assume the coupons were good for seventy five cents each, so in effect you were buying $15.00 worth of coupons for $6.
Not every store doubles over $1.
Not every store that does accepts internet coupons.
I just read a couponing book and signed up on CouponMom’s website. I have yet to come across coupons for the products I buy And no, I’m not a brand snob but it’s the cheapest decent detergent; with coupons and what not the other brands are not likely to be cheaper as sales are less frequent.
Which actually brings me to a good tip: buy generic. The world will not come to an end if you buy the store brand mayo at 1.99 . With time you’ll know which kinds of things are fine in the knockoff version (we still splurge on Pledge furniture polish, vs. the dollar store’s, but maybe that’s us), etc.
