Quick Version to How I Save

My grocery store stacks coupons. If you wanna get on this register at afullcup.com and look up your supermarket. They should post a weekly forum updating their sales items, what the available matching coupons are and where to find them. Look up all your grocery stores. Then contact them and ask them what their coupon policy is. Once you know what they take I'll help you understand the policy. All markets should take manufacturer coupons. Some even double 50 cent ones. That means they take off $1 instead. Some triple. some have their own store coupons that u can use on top of a manufacturer coupon. That's called stacking. Some take competitor coupons. That means using another store brand coupon. When an item is on sale and you stack coupons on top, that's when u make a killing. If your store does BOGO (buy one get one) some stores let you use two coupons. One on the one you're paying for and another on the free one. You can stack on BOGO too. Many times the value of the coupon exceeds the price of the item. So not only will I get the item for free but you will get the remainder value of the coupon subtracted off you grand total. For instance, the pepsi was BOGO $1.79. So two for the price of one. I had a coupon that said buy 4 Pepsico Products (aka pepsi, tostitos, lays, quacker) and get $8 off. I also had the same coupon but it was buy 3 get $5 off. So I bought 4 for the first coupon and 4 for the second because even though the coupon says 3 they are still BOGO so u get 4. Anyway I have 8 pepsi and I'm paying for for because of the sale. That comes our to $7.16 -$8 -$5= -$5.74. That - amount comes off my grocery total. So free pepsi that paid me $5.74. That's called overage. This is the short cut version of how I save. Let me know how this helps.
