Weekly deals help us find great savings in the stores we frequent. Unless one is in the loop they are hard to notice. Those weekly ads that invade the mailboxes nationwide opened up and viewed save a lot of money. Prefer to pay $4 for a watermelon, or $1 for the same one? Hard working people don't have time for an extra endeavor as viewing store ads or using coupons. Realize, however, that you work hard and you spend hard. Taking a few minutes in your week can save you more money then you could have imagined. You can cut your food bill in half and even more. Detergent purchase price on a normal day for a specific brand $3.99. Store sale and coupon $0.99. What price do you prefer? Bought 12 bottles at $0.99. Saved $35.88. How long does it take you to earn $35.88? If with just the detergent you can save that much then how much more can you save in all the other products. Got 60 bar soaps of a nice brand all for free. Only paid tax. Considering I saved $20, it was well worth it to me. And the time invested was very little.
There are many ways to save a lot of money.

You are so right,,coupons definately saves a lot of money.
I think the reason more people don't use them more is because
its just so time consumming..I use them ocassionally but I use
to use them more when I was working and feeding a family,,now
that its just me I have no reason to purchase 12 bottles of
detergent or 60 bars of soap...I have no room to store items
like that... People with a house ir access to a basemeny or
have an empty room can store lots and lots for merchandise.
its not useful to purchase in bulk...
But I do use them for items here and there...

I agree, coupons helps a lot.
Usually fast foods here in our country are offering more discounted coupons compared to grocery items.
How I wish more grocery stores, supermarkets will give coupons like fastfood chains do.
Fast food crews standing in line at the mall entrance giving away coupons while you can avail discounted coupon once you buy products/items from grocery stores.
Sometimes I avail of coupons from magazines and newspapers.
