Did you know Target has coupons online? Somehow I had missed that.
I knew Kroger had the Shortcuts program where you can put coupons right on your Kroger card, but the Target one was news to me.
Also, do you ever get those booklets in the mail full of Grocery Store coupons? Well, if you look closely, many of them say “Manufacturer’s Coupon” across the top, which means you can use them other places. Target will give you a hard time if you have the Kroger logo on the coupon, but just cut it off and they will never know.
On an organizational note — ever get to the register and have to thumb through and look for your coupons to go with the items in your cart?
If so, here’s a tip – when you make your grocery list, pull out the coupons you need and put them and your grocery list in a sandwhich bag. That way, when you get to the register, you have all your coupons ready to go.
Do you have any coupon tips? If so, please share.
With Kroger, you can sign up online at http://www.kroger.com and they can actually load the coupon codes onto your rewards card. Prevents you from having to carry paper coupons around. Unfortunately, there haven’t been that many items that I buy, but someone else might.
Did you know that Publix will accept for any one product a manufacturer coupon, plus a store coupon, and depending on the store, sometimes a competitor coupon on top of that, often making the item you’re purchasing almost free.
Each grocery store chain has different policies on coupons they will and will not accept. My neighbor sent me this link and typically saves $100 on a $160 grocery bill.

Thanks for the comment, Susan. My friend Diana mentioned them, too. Might be worthy of its own blog post. Good idea about Christmas gift savings. Santa needs all the help he (she) can get!
