How To Save Money with Grocery Coupons

How To Save Money with Grocery Coupons by Cinnamon Henke

If you are like most families your grocery trips are one of your most expensive monthly “bills”. You hear about people saving tons of money and even getting items for free with coupons but you don’t know what to do. Here are a few tips to get you started.

First things first:

• You have to get the coupons!
• You can get some from the Sunday paper if you subscribe to it.
• You can find then in local grocery stores advertisements
• You can find places to print them offline.
• You can sometimes call, email or write companies and ask them for coupons.

Understanding types of coupons:

Manufacture coupons and Store Coupons. Manufacture coupons are usually good at every store as the Manufacturing Company rebates the Grocery stores to take them.

Store coupons are put out by the grocery stores to help draw you in. Some stores are now accepting competitors (other stores) coupons. Ask the stores in your area if the take competitor coupons.

So now you have your stash of coupons and you should try to organize your coupons. I keep mine in an envelope in the car so I always have them with me. Coupons do you no good if you leave them at home.

Here are more tips to help you save big!

• Some stores double coupons, ask the stores in your area if they do and when.
• Wait to use a good coupon until the items goes on sale, you will save even more money.
• Sometimes a store will let you use more than one coupon per item, try it.
• Pay attention to expiration dates on your coupons.
• Don’t be afraid to speak up, for instance. My husband had 7 coupons each for $1 off of the Organics brand items at Safeway. The cashier tried to tell him he could only use one per trip. The coupon did not say that anywhere on it, so he told her that. She ended up having to let him use all 7 coupons.

Now it’s time to go shopping and save some money!!

NET10 Has Affordable Cell Phone Plans For You and Your Family!

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Net10 for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

I have a rather large family and it is important to me that every member of my family have a cell phone which means I need to look for reliable and affordable cell phone providers for our family. I was doing some research online and stumbled upon NET10 and I am liking what I see! NET10 has no contracts, no hidden fees, no credit checks and no surprise charges!

NET10 has an unlimited monthly call, text and data plan that only costs $50 a month and that is perfect for me since I am a heavy cell phone user. I think their 200 monthly minutes for $15 a month is the perfect plan for my mother since she only uses her cell phone for important and emergency calls. What is really nice is that on their monthly minutes plans you can carry over any unused minutes to the following month at no extra charge. Real NET10 customer are loving NET10 and I can see why!

NET10 has international calling plans for those of you who have family and friends living overseas and over 75 countries participate with NET10. Wow! What a savings for you because International calling can cost an arm and a leg with those other companies!

NET10 only uses trusted phone manufacturers like Nokia, Samsung, LG and Motorola so you know you are getting a quality phone. Simple phones start out at $15 and you can upgrade to a camera phone with mobile web capabilities for only $40 and if you want a nice QWERTY phone with keyboard you can get those for around $60. Check out this Cute NET10 commercial for more information!

I can See the Light at the end of the cell phone over-charge tunnel and I am seriously considering switching our cellular service over to NET10. With all of the money I would be saving I could afford to take a second family vacation trip every year! yeah!!!!
