I am looking for multiple ways to save money this year to reach my financial goals. I want to start using coupons but don't know where or how to start to get good coupons. I am aware of websaver.ca for coupons (I am in Canada) but do not know of any other sites available. Anyone have any advise or sites to check out for getting good coupons, any advice is greatly appriciated!

If you want really good coupons, you have to go on the hunt for them. Go to the websites of the brands that you usually buy and sign up for whatever newsletters or memberships they have. Most brands will send out good coupons occasionally just for those who, say, follow them on Facebook. Be in the know about that.
Another good way is to write to the company that produces a product that you really like. Be honest and tell them how much you like it. I got a coupon for a free bottle of Fantastik when I told them I'd tried another brand when cleaning my Mom's old pie safe and it didn't touch the grime, but Fantastik just melted it off.
You can get coupons from sites that offer dozens, but they're usually not nearly as good as what you can get on your own.

i use save.ca. plus if you go to the different companies and sign up for their emails (like catelli) sometimes they send you coupons. However, here in Canada, multiple coupons are often not accepted in a lot of stores, best to do your homework. personally, i find that even with the cents off coupons, the store brand is still cheaper!

I have been finding coupons on things like the cereal boxes. Mini-Wheats had a coupon on it for a free tub of yoghurt, that kind of thing. It helps, especially as we were going to buy MiniWheats and we often buy yoghuet.

We are fortunate that nearly every Sunday the newspapers carries coupon inserts in them. Also here we get coupons delivered with our daily mail every Wednesday. Someone else mentioned going to the website for the popular name brand items that you use and emailing them they will send you coupons that way as well. I have received coupons from Breyers Ice Cream & French's Mustard this way. Good luck with your search. I wish I had more to offer you but I am afraid I am lost for your area.

I use coupons almost every time i go to the grocery store. I dont understand why some people dont do it. I do buy some store brands on things like ketchup, cheese and mustard but those are things that to me all taste the same. Now i use yougurt coupons and well alot of coupons to truthfully honest LOL. I love my coupons. I have signed up with inboxdollars.com and everytime you use there couponsyou get money into your account and then you get enough money in there you can actually get a checkin the mail from them. Now i also use mypoints.com and they are the same but you actually get giftcards from this site. Both sites are gret and you can do alot on both sites but they do both have coupons you can print and use.
Hope this helps you out even though i dont know if they have canada coupons. have a great day mylotting.
