What if I want More Coupons?

In the last post I spoke about coupons from the newspaper. But what if you find a really good deal & you want to get as many coupons as you can to stock up on an item without having to buy 5 or 6 papers.

There are printables & e-coupons.

Printables
Printables are just that-you print them off from your home computer. There are several websites that you can go to to get some printables. There are links on the side. You will have to install a coupon printer activator.

After you print the first copy you can usually hit the "back" button to print a second copy of the coupon.

I would recommend changing your printer settings to print in black only & a quick print to help you save on ink.

ECoupons
These links will take you to websites where you can load coupons onto your shopper card. This way you could use 2 coupons on an item; one paper coupon & one e-coupon.

News & Observer Subscription Discount Code

For those of us located in North Carolina the following code will help save you some money (& the trouble of stopping at newsstand to get a paper).

**This is only good on new subscriptions-you can not apply this discount code to an existing subscription**

CODE: IHNEED30

This will give you a 30% discount on your Sunday paper, so you will end up getting it for $1.49/week (this is Sunday only-I wouldn't bother getting it for the whole week-if you're really only wanting coupons why pay for the days you would get them?)

The N&O Customer Service number is 1-800-522-4205.

****Make sure that they deliver to your area. This code does not apply to papers that they have to mail.

***This code will only last as long as the number of weeks that you choose. So if you only pay for 13 weeks up front, you'll only get it this cheap for 13 weeks & after that you can ask for a N&O subscribee discount rate of 20%.

So:
1-Call before Jan. 31st (that's when this code expires) & ask if they deliver to your area. If they do:
2-Tell them that you have a discount code
3-They'll set up your account & you'll start enjoying your coupons-delivered right to your front door.


I would recommend getting the News & Observer which is the State's paper rather than the local paper. It provides a ton more coupons and higher dollar coupons for the same price you'd probably pay for your local paper with this discount.

Hope this helps

There's a ton of couponing info out there. When I first started couponing a few months ago it was pretty overwhelming trying to absorb all of the information at once. I'm starting this blog in the hopes that it will help answer any questions you may have about using coupons & saving money.

Please feel free to e-mail me with any questions. I'd love to help. And don't worry if you don't get it all at once-you will before too long!
