Grocery deals are practically everywhere but you have to know how to maximize your time when you are using coupons. Here are my top three easy ways to locate and maximize grocery deals:
Computer or Smartphone
I never knew how much my computer and/or smartphone could save me while couponing but I quickly learned that it saves me a lot. There are several different smartphone apps like ibotta and Checkout 51 that provides rebates when you purchase certain products. I am also able to connect with product brands that I love on Facebook and Twitter including their websites on both my computer and smartphone.
Coupon Organizer
My Coupon Organizer system works very well for me. I use a handheld coupon binder and several storage units to sort my coupon inserts that are not clipped. When you are deciding how to organize your coupons, think about the kind of person you are and what system will work best for you.
Coupon Support System
I love my coupon support system. I can always depend on them to help keep me focused on saving and using my coupons as well as sharing with several thousand fans who need to learn as well. What coupon support system do you currently have in place?
