How Can You Get Extra Coupons?

Sometimes you need to work a deal . . . I mean you really NEED the deal!  Whether it's a product you use regularly and you're out, or you want to stockpile product at a fantastic price (like free or almost free!) . . . BUT you don't have (any or enough) coupons.  What can you do?!?
  • Ask your family/friends/neighbors for coupons.  We share coupons in our family.  The coupons I will never use I save or print for my friends and family.  Many of our neighbors are not couponers (can you believe it?!) and are happy to share the coupons they aren't using.  Many will not only hand over their inserts, but may print coupons for you when you've reached the print limit on your computer.  You have nothing to lose by asking . . . so, by all means, ASK!
  • I know you've probably seen couponers 'dumpster diving' on Extreme Couponers.  I'm not an advocate of such extreme measures.  Really.  You can receive up to eight Sunday newspapers delivered right to your door for an EXTREMEly cheap price.  Really cheap.  Cheaper than you could get if you called the Review Journal direct.  Just call me.  You'll be set up before you know it!  Promise.
  • Buy extra coupons from a clipping service.  There are several to choose from.  You have the option of ordering complete inserts or individual coupons - your choice.  Try Coupons by DeDe, or The Coupon Master for clipped coupons or Sunday Coupon Inserts for complete inserts.
     
  • Check the magazines you subscribe to.  Many magazines include coupons - some magazines are devoted to coupons.  Of course, I'm referring to All You Magazine.  All You can only be purchased at Walmart.  Subscription deals come along periodically and I post them when I find them.
  • Load digital coupons to your store loyalty cards.   Like coupons you cut from inserts, these coupons can only be used once, but you're saving without really thinking about it.  Load coupons for products you regularly use, for products you think you might want to try, or for products you might purchase and donate.  The coupon is deducted when you buy the product and shop using your loyalty card.
  • Check products on the shelves in the store for "peelies".  Check store shelves for "blinkies" and "tear-offs".  "Peelies" are coupons found on the product lid or label.  They may be for that specific product or may be for products in the same manufacturer's line.  Be sure to read the coupon carefully for product details.  "Blinkies" are found in a coupon dispenser (often with a blinking light to get your attention) located close to the product being offered.  "Tear-offs" are coupons on a tear-off pad of coupons also found close to the product being offered.
