    Thumbs up Getting back into couponing... ideas?

    I have been away from my frugal ways for some time and am struggling to get back into it. Whats the best way to get a stash of coupons started. I plan to buy a Sunday paper this weekend and grab those ones... also will be joining a coupon train here once I have some stocked up... any other ideas to get me started?

    Also, do the dollar stores still carry coupon organizer thingies? I don't have much money right now and I know they used to.

    Check out couponmom.com to get help with matching up coupons with sales for stores in your area. Keep a lookout for a coupon organizer but until you find one, envelopes or a gallon size ziploc bag would work. Happy couponing!

    coupons.com have lots of coupons that you can print.
    PM me your address and I will send you a potluck of coupons from the last couple of week.
    Do you have pets or babies I do not so I do not use those coupons and can send them to you.

    If your dollar store sells Sunday papers, get a few papers there. That way, you have multiples to build a stockpile & sell/trade whatever you don't use. I find selling off whatever I don't need pays for the cost of the papers.

    Hi! Glad to hear you're back on the wagon Here's a bunch of sites I can't live with out!

    www.afullcup.com --look across top for Printable Coupons
    www.spam! It is better fried than typedspam! It is better fried than typedspam! It is better fried than typedspam! It is better fried than typedspam! It is better fried than typedspam! It is better fried than typedspam! It is better fried than typedspam! It is better fried than typedspam! It is better fried than typedspam! It is better fried than typedspam!

    www.dealseekingmom.com
    www.consumerqueen.com
    www.attentiontargetshoppers.com
    www.becentsable.com ---look for the grocery gathering for area deals
    www.redplum.com
    www.smartsource.com
    www.coolsavings .com--printables tab on top bar
    www.bettycrocker.com
    www.wowcoupons.com
    www.pillsbury.com
    www.generalmills.com
    www.kelloggs.com

    Some of these are deal finders sites. Sign up to receive latest deals. Plan on spending some time to navigate them to find all the latest goodies like theCVS, Walgreens, and supermkt deals and coupon match-ups. They do the work for you!. The others are obviously coupon sites. You have to join most of them to get coupons.

    There's more, but can't think of all of them right now.
