When shopping online do you use coupon codes that you find online? How about when shopping in the store? Do you look for coupons before you go or do you not bother about saving that extra 10%, 15% or even 25% ??? I ask this because in the recent months ive been using coupons for almost everything I buy. From groceries to lotions to clothing. My husband that I was lame at first for cutting coupons for our groceries that was until he saw the BILL! We saved over $100 on groceries and since then we now cut our grocery coupons together :).. As far as shopping online, I search the net for coupon codes! On every purchase ive made in the past 3 months online ive used a coupon code. Sometimes even though a website only claims that you cant use more than one code, you REALLY CAN! So try it next time! You wouldnt believe how much money Ive saved us by just taking five minutes to look for a code or 20minutes a week coupon cutting! ! ! Its totally worth it, and why not use them when they are free and its ideally FREE money! ! ! ? ? ? Thats the one thing I DONT understand, Many people feel that coupons are for poor people! ! ! And thats SOO not true!!! Those families we see with many kids and a large home didnt get those extra toys without cutting coupons and saving $100s a month! ! ! What are your thoughts? Do you use coupons? if so how often?? what do you use them on??

If I am shopping online I always try to find coupons. I don't like shopping without them. I think that if you're going to buy something online you should at least try to find a coupon before you decide to check out. I mean you may save money on shipping costs or even a small percentage on the price of your order. It's definitely worth a shot.

I don't search for coupons online. There's hardly one for my country anyway. Usually I get coupons directly from the malls. They send it via snail mail. I also got coupons from the newspaper. It's not much of a choice but we're still buying things there anyway, cutting even a penny will help.

You should try searching for them a different way. There are soo many sites that post coupons online for grocery stores that you can clip and print!!! Good luck! I love coupon hunting, especially when I find a coupon that is going to save me alot on something that I buy weekly! ! !

If I have a coupon I'll definately use it. That's more money left in my pocket that I can save or use on something I really want. Our grocery store here gives you a discount card. You can still use other coupons, but all you have to do is swipe it and any of thier in store sells will be removed form your bill. It's really convenient. I still look for coupons though. I think they can really add up on some things. I'm probably not as diligent about it as I should be.
