I was sitting watching the Today Show, this morning. They had a segment where they went and purchased $100 in groceries, and used coupons. After all the coupons were ran, they paid exactly $0.25 cents for the groceries.
How many of you search online for deals, and coupons? What is the best coupon site? Where do you look to find the best deals that not everyone already knows about?

I know a lady that does this all the time. She has even left a store and came out way ahead! According to her, Walgreens is a great place to shop between in-store coupns, and maufacturer coupons, and their register rewards and rebates, you can get some really good deals. Another way is to look at clearance items. I tend to look for items that are on sale, and use coupons with the sale at the local store that doubles coupons up to $1.00. I have left the store with $50 worth of food, and only had to pay $14, not quite as good as some people do, but not to shabby either. There are a lot of sites that you can check out for coupons, and I know of one that you can also get advice on deals. It is called Hot Coupn World, and it really does give useful information.

I have heard simliar stories to this...and have seen them on several other talk shows. I do clip coupons, and go to grocery stores that have double coupon day, however, I have never been able to save that much money. I have seen several good websites for coupons, but honestly, I don't have the time or the dedication to clip that many coupons. Perhaps if I didn't have to work, I would be able to do that.

I saw that show too. I would love to be able to do that/ What they don't tell you on these shows is that you can't go in and spend 25 cents everytime you go shopping. You have to save your free and high dollar coupons and use them all at once.
I'm reading a lot of blogs from people that shop at the same stores as I do so they help with the deals and what coupons to use. If you want to get some good coupons you should write to the companies of products that you use and tell them how much you like their product. They will send you coupons to use on your next shopping trip.
