Do you clip coupons to use when you do shopping such as for groceries or cleaning products? Do you clip them from the newspaper or print them off internet, or maybe both? Also do you use coupons fro things u normally buy, or will u buy a different brand of say Ice cream or soup or something, because you have a coupon for that specific item?I dont clip them from the paper, but i do go to a few online sites, once in a while, most times i forget about them and dont get them before i go shopping, and i only use ones for items i normally buy, as hubby is very picky and wont let me use "new" brands of something..well on food anyway, cleaning products i will try any brand if i think it will work as well.

I do clip coupons. I don't print them from the net very often because I'm not sure how many places will actually accept the printed coupons as I've heard horror stories from some places about printed coupons. I do cut them out of the Sunday paper occasionally if there is a coupon that I know we can use.
I don't really favor any brands, so if I have a coupon for something that I want or know that will be used, I'll use it so I can save a bit of money in the long run. Brands don't really mean much to me.

I clip away, LOL! We are stationed in Germany and only have the military commissary available to us unless we travel to some of the farms. It is easier to just go to the commissary and shop. Unfortunately, everything is expensive because it is all name brand, so a lot of people here rely on coupons. It still isn't like gettng that wal-mart deal but it helps. I am so use to this that I will probably continue to do it in the states, LOL!

I use coupons ocassionally. I get them from the newspaper. I tend to buy generic though because there products are usually cheaper than the coupon price. I dont see why I should pay more for something just to get a name brand. If you like coupons there is a site called quick rewards that actually pays you to print coupons. Who can beat a deal like that?

the policy of using the coupons is a good and a correct thing in my point of view and the thing is that correct usage of correct coupons in an important thing and carrying all the coupons while shopping is a bit difficult thing to do
