Coupons Part 2

The Sunday paper should be your first and primary source for coupons - however, it doesn't have to be your only source. You can and should supplement your coupon supply whenever possible. Here are some good places to start:

Couponsurfer.com - Smartsource.com - Redplum.com - offer printable grocery coupons online.

Afullcup.com is a general couponing and money-saving site that has a great resources for finding specific online coupons. You have to sign up for membership, but it's free.

Pillsbury.com - brand-specific printable coupons online (not just Pillsbury, but General Mills, Yoplait, Progresso, and others, too). Sign up as a member and check yes to receive their online newsletter - you'll get the coupons sent directly to your inbox, along with along with practical, family-friendly recipes.

Kraftfoods.com - sign up for their Food & Family magazine by mail as well as their weekly online newsletter. Mainly recipes, but occasionally some good coupons (some for totally FREE products).

Verybestkids.com - by Nestle. Quarterly magazine filled with coupons.

**********

Family Circle and Woman's Day typically have a small coupon insert in every issue, but I've found that most womens magazines aren't the source for coupons that they were in our mothers' days. The big exception to this is All You, a similar womens magazine printed exclusively for WalMart. Their issues consistently have plenty of coupons I want to use, with a total value that far exceeds the cover price of the magazine ($2.25 or so). As a bonus, it's a pretty good magazine, too, with family-friendly recipes, crafts, decorating ideas, etc.
