We signed up for the sunday paper when they called and gave us a great rate on it. Well the great rate has expired and it is up to the regular rate. I feel like it is just another bill and the coupons we clip are barely making up the difference. Why do all the work for the coupons when if I just canceled the paper I could save that much each week?
Really I would like some coupon sources. Does anyone have any ideas where I can get some coupons that I dont need to pay for?

If you're in Canada, there is a website called savings.ca that has coupons for useful items. They mail them to you.
I signed up on the Johnson and Johnson website to receive their promotional materials - I get coupons in the mail and the occasional free sample. It's pretty good.
A lot of the company websites offer coupons for items. Usually their new items but sometimes the regular stuff. I occasionally wander around and look. If you're in the US, you can sign up for quite a few free things and coupons that only really work in the states. I go to a freebie board on ivillage.com where people post the free things they find and they post when they find good coupons too. Unfortunately for me, the best offers are mostly for Americans, but some work for everyone (like the free jellybelly beans).

I do live in americe, but I have not had great luck with finding a place to ge coupons in the mail. Do I just need to look around on the websites and then sign up for mailing lists and the coupons will just come?

Maybe you could ask your friends or co-workers if they're not using the coupons if you could have them.
Also, go online to the company of the products that you do use. Sometimes you can print them off their websites, if none of the stores in your area take internet printed coupons then email them from their website. A lot of times, they will send you coupons through snail mail and its either for free products or a nice amount off.
Good Luck.

I asked my mother in law if we could take her coupons. She said yes, but we need to go over every sunday and pick them up or they will end up in the trash. I figure it is better than nothing. Everyone else I know who gets the paper gets it for the coupons. I guess I should ask around more.
