Coupons can provide significant savings on grocery bills. The typical family saves between $5-10 per week or up to $1000 per year using coupons. Coupons are available from many sources including newspaper inserts, magazines, online sites, store circulars, and directly from manufacturers. There are various strategies for maximizing coupon savings including stacking store and manufacturer coupons, buying in bulk when coupons offer savings on purchasing a set number of items, taking advantage of buy-one-get-one offers, using rebates, and earning store rewards that can be used like coupons. Proper organization and planning is required to realize the full potential savings from couponing.
