Coupon Insert Preview for July 3, 2011

Usually there are not coupons on a major holiday weekend.  However, there are suppose to be P & G coupon inserts in the July 3rd paper.  I recommend looking inside the paper at the store to make sure there are coupons before purchasing it (unless you purchase at a newspaper machine).  If you purchase at a newspaper machine you should always look through to make sure the coupons are in the paper anyway before buying more, because some people are known to steal the coupons out of the newspapers in these types of machines which is so wrong!)

My savings with coupons by combining store sales, coupons and store rewards!

I am so excited about the savings on these items.  It did require me to go to several different stores; but they were all close by each other except for 1 and it was not far from my house.  It was well worth it! I had several coupons that were going to expire on the 31st so I went shopping for the items I could get really cheap or free.  Here is the breakdown:

Fixodent: 4 were free, 2 cost me $0.47 each (Purchased at 2 different stores because there was a limit of 4 like coupons per shopping trip / per day.) Total Cost: $0.94

Fixodent: 4 @ $0.40 each because they were on sale and I had a $1.25 coupon for each one. Total Cost: $1.60

Right Guard Deodorant: 4 FREE!  I had a BOGO Free coupon and the drug store had it on sale for BOGO Free.  I asked the manager if I could use this coupon with their special and they said YES!  Each one also came with a FREE trial size body wash on the back of the deodorant package WOW!  I used 2 coupons and got 4 FREE.Total Cost: $0.00

Aquafresh Kids Toothpaste:  3 FREE!  They were on sale for $0.99 and I had a $1.00 off coupon for each. Total Cost: $0.00

Excedrin: 4 @ $2.49 each for the large quantity.  I had a $3.00 off in-store coupon, a $1.50 off newspaper manufacturer coupon, plus I had $8.00 in Register Rewards that I used. (I did have to go to 2 different stores within a few miles of each other because there was a limit of 3 per shopping trip.) My total cost for 4 large bottles of Excedrin was: $9.96!  One bottle normally cost almost this much. 

Icy Hot: 6 FREE!  These are the smaller sizes (great to donate or take when traveling).  They were on sale for $0.99 and I had a $1.00 off coupon for each one.  Total cost: $0.00

Oral B tootbrush: 4 @ $0.24.  I had coupons and there was an in store promotion, plus rewards. Total cost: $0.96


OFF - Instore coupon for $1.00 and manufacture coupon for $0.75 made this only: $3.24.  This was not as big of a savings but I needed to buy one anyway to keep mosquitoes off my daughter when playing outside.

Covergirl Makeup: 2 - These were on sale for $3.50 and I had a $1.00 off coupon on each which made them $2.50; however I had an overage on the Fixodent cleansers because they were on sale for $2.50 and I had a coupon for $3.00 off each 1 x 4.  This gave me a $2.00 overage that I was able to apply to my makeup.  Leaving me with a total cost of only: $3.00 ($1.50 for each mascara makeup).

Pantene Shampoo & Conditioner:  3  of each:  I purchased these at different stores with a $3.00 off 2 coupon and combining it with store sales.  2 stores I was able to use my store rewards/extra bucks that I had saved in addition to the sale and coupon.  My total cost for all 6 bottles (3 of each) was: $6.88 this came to about $1.15 a bottle.

Crest Toothpaste:  2 - Item was on sale plus I had coupons and extra rewards I could use towards my cost resulting in both for FREE.

Strawberries: 3 @ $1.25 at Wal-Mart. I got 3 because this price is really cheap and I can wash, cut and freeze for eating later. (No coupon) Total cost $3.75

Pert 2-in-1 trial size shampoo bottles (3): FREE; Cost in store was $0.97 each and I had a $1.00 off coupon for each. Total Cost: $0.00

Ivory Soap 3 bar - 1 - I had a $1.00 off coupon and it cost $0.99 = Total cost of $0.00

Bread - 1 @ $1.50 (no coupon) Total Cost: $1.50

Total Cost for all of these items was only: $31.83 plus I got back $8.00 in store rewards to use later which made my total cost only: $23.83

These items would normally retail for over $140.00+ with no sales or coupons, according to different store prices.

I have learned to save my Extra Bucks from CVS and my Rewards from Walgreens to accumulate enough so I can use them towards my out of pocket cost on items that are on sale.  This way I can use my manufacture coupons and the rewards on the sale items.  Of course they will expire so I make sure I use them before they do.  By saving them I was able to get all of this stuff at a huge discount when combined with the different store sales and my coupons.  Of course 2 of the stores did not offer or accept rewards.

Feel free to share your savings here on the blog as well. :-)

God bless,

Lynn

Remember that most regions should have 3 coupon inserts in this Sunday's newspaper, June 5th.  There should be Red Plum, Smart Source, and Proctor & Gamble. P & G usually comes out once a month. 

We will have a preview of these coupons on our website by Friday. :)

Happy Couponing!

Note: Some regions such as rural areas may not have the exact coupon inserts that other regions may have.

Remember, many of the P & G coupons are expiring today!

Don't forget that a lot of the P & G coupons that came out in the 5/01/11 paper will expire today (5/31/11).  Some of the items are on sale at different stores.  You can search our database on our website or at the bottom of this blog to see what is on sale. 

Of course we are not saying to go out and buy things just because some of the coupons are expiring. However, if there are items you need from the P & G coupons we wanted to remind you that some will expire today. :-)

God bless,

Couponing Ideas is not responsible if your paper has different inserts/coupons in your region.

How many newspapers should you buy when using coupons?

I get asked all the time "how many newspapers should I buy when couponing"?

Since this is a common question I thought I would address the subject.

The fact is no one can really tell you how many to buy because different families and their circumstances will depend on what they can afford.

When I first started out I was getting only about 2 papers.  However, I quickly advanced to about 10 per week because I am able to preview what coupons are going to be in that week's paper.  If I see there are not really any big value coupons for items I use then I may not get as many for that week.  Yet, if I see there are some great coupons coming out then I might actually get a few more than just 10.

I try to think of others when getting my newspapers.  I usually will go get a few in the morning.  (Well my husband does, lol) Then later in the day we will go get more.  This way we are not buying up all the newspapers. There are people that purchase 1 paper every Sunday to read the news, get coupons, etc. and I do not want to be the reason they were not able to get a paper.

The other reason I may get 10 or a few more some weeks is because I also try to donate some of the items I can get for free or near free.

I would say start out small (if your budget allows it).  After you see that you are saving money then you can decide if you want to get more papers or not. Always stay within your budget! 

Don't forget you can Print Coupons for FREE online too.

You can find coupons in many different places online.  Social Networking sites are also buzzing with coupon deals.  Many times couponers will share links of coupons they locate online with their social networking friends.

You can also ask friends and family if they use their coupons.  If they get the paper and usually throw away the coupons; I am sure they would love to share them with you if you just ask.

My point is there are many ways to obtain coupons both online and offline.  I do not recommend going out and buying a lot of papers your first week.  You really need to start smaller and work your way up as you save more.  Also remember that some coupons will have limits on them.  There are some that will say (no more than 4 like coupons in same trip), of course this could be any number; that was just an example.

I recommend looking at what coupons are coming out before buying several papers.  We always post a coupon insert preview for the Sunday paper by Friday of each week.  You can click here to view our newspaper preview of upcoming coupon inserts. Remember to bookmark the page because as I mentioned before we have updates listed by the Friday before the paper of each week.

Also, remember that there are usually no coupon inserts in newspapers if it is a major holiday weekend. For example, this past weekend was Memorial Day weekend and there were no inserts. We do have a coupon schedule posted on our website as well, but we will post the schedule to this blog too. :-)

TIP: The June 5th paper will have 3 different inserts! Red Plum (RP), Smart Source (SS), and Proctor & Gamble (P&G). The P&G insert usually comes out only 1 time a month.

Welcome to our new Couponing Ideas blog!

Helping others to save money with coupons!

My mission is to teach others how to use coupons to save money on their monthly budget.  I also love passing along super deals that result in saving a lot of money when combining sales with coupons.

The first month I started using coupons I saved over $400 off my monthly budget.

I will say that I am in no way an extreme couponer! The most I will get of the same item is normally 10 or less.  Sometimes I will get a few more than this if it is an item I use every day.

The realistic savings percentage for the average person is usually between 40% - 60%.  Of course if you go into a store just to get an item that is free or almost free and nothing else; then yes, your savings will be closer to 100%. 

Please be sure to check back every day because I will post different savings deals along with tips on how to coupon and save money without going to the extreme. 

God bless,
