Internet Printer Coupons

The internet has done a lot for the couponer by providing internet coupons. Sometimes there are some great deals to be found using the printed coupons.

An important thing to remember is to NEVER make copies of your coupons. This is illegal and can get you into BIG TIME trouble. Each coupon has it’s own unique validation code so you can point this out to cashiers who are worried that you might have copied the coupons. Each validation code is linked to your specific computer and if the company wants to track you down through your ISP they can. So please realize it is not worth saving a few dollars by copying coupons. People have been prosecuted for this type of fraud. Enough said on that 

There are many sites which provide coupons on a routine basis, such as

www.coupons.com
www.coolsaving.com
www.smartsource.com

Most sites you can print from will only allow you to print TWO coupons per computer. Sometimes this is a sufficient amount or there are times you will want more than two. If this is the case use different computers. At my home we have three computers so I usually am able to print six coupons. You can also ask friends and coworkers to print coupons for you using their computers. Make sure you are not using computers at your place of employment if you feel this will get you in trouble. Again, saving a few dollars is not worth losing a job over.

Sometimes there are coupons that a company will put out to get consumers to try their products. These are usually available on the company’s website to access by the public. If you know there is product you want to buy, you can look at the website and see if there are any coupons. Let’s say you want to buy some Betty Crocker items on sale. You can go to the their website
www.bettycrocker.com
once there you can look to see if there are coupons offered. In the right upper corner there is a link for coupons. Click that link
Betty Crocker Coupons and you will see the coupons available from Betty Crocker.

There are also coupons which can be sent to you in your email if you have signed up at various websites. Below is a coupon I was sent for Orville Redenbacher popcorn.

Popcorn Coupons

It is a pretty good coupon $1/1 and does not expire until the end of the year so I printed it and am saving it for a sale. You do not know when a printable coupon will no longer be available, so if you really think you will use the coupon, it might be a good idea to print it out when you see it, but then there is the fact that some coupons online have only a short lifespan, 2 weeks to 1 month and when ever you print it starts that time frame, so it is up to you when you decide to print the coupons. I know it is confusing and I am not sure I explained it right, but if you have questions just ask me for clarification.

$2/1 Bertolli Oven Baked Meal

So that is a brief overview on internet coupons and some to try out!

Refunds and Register Rewards... so much money!

I am not a great rebate person. I have been known, and re-known…. MANY TIMES to buy the items with grand plans to get the item FREE and then “forget” to send in the rebate or miss a deadline due to procrastination. I am the queen of that! BUT… there are great deals out there for those of you with more will power and a not so laid back personality 

This month at Walgreen there are many items you can get FREE when you buy them now and submit a rebate. Walgreen’s now allows online submission of rebates so you do not have to clip proof of purchases or send in forms and receipts. It is a great idea for folks like me. Another terrific thing about Walgreen’s rebates is if you request your rebate in the worm of a Walgreen’s gift card, they will add 10% back to you card. So lets say this month you are getting $20 back in rebates, Walgreen’s will put $22 on your gift card. You can even submit the number of a gift card you have in hand to get the refund available sooner than having them mail out a new card. It is a great program, one I plan to start to use more!

Here are a few of the deals I feel are promising. Buying Free After Rebate (FAR) items are a great way to spend your RR. This is a fast way to convert them wither into cash or Walgreen’s card plus the 10% bonus! Here are a few deals for this week:

Another Walgreen’s great deal this week is the Nabisco cookies. Buy 2 for $5, add 1 gallon milk… get $3 RR back. The deal gets better. The computer is not programmed to look for the milk. You can buy the cookies for $5 and get $3 off. This is NOT cheating. It is how the computer is programmed. I figure $1 Oreos are a great deal.

Then next deal is the Crest Pro Health Mouthwash 500 ml for $4.49 and get a $4.50 RR.

Another is the Reach Toothbrushes or dental floss. Buy 2 for $5 get $5 RR back.

To “ROLL” the deal you should first buy the cookies. Out Of Pocket (OOP) is $5. If you have RR from the previous week this will reduce your OOP. You will get a new RR for $3.

Use the $3 RR on the next deal of Mouthwashfor $4.49, your next OOP is 1.49 (total OOP now $6.50) You will get another RR for $4.50.

Use the $4.50 to buy the toothbrushes or dental floss for $5. Your OOP will be $.50 for a total OOP $7. You will get another $5 RR. This can be spent on another set of cookies for $5 where you will get $3 back. You can continue to roll the RR and deals or if you stopped now you would have spent $7 OOP, you would still have a $3 RR so really your OOP is $4. But you will have:

4 packages of cookies @ $2.50 for total of $10
1 mouthwash at $4.49
2 toothbrushes or floss @ 2.50 for total of $5

So essentially you brought home $19.49 worth (at sale prices) of items for $4! For a savings of 79.5%

Not a bad shopping deal! Keep looking for new combinations. I miss deals… please share with the blog.

Have a great week!
