Get to Know Your Favorite Store
Expert couponers know everything about their favorite stores. They’ve downloaded the store apps and signed up for loyalty cards, they know when the stores have their monthly sales, they know the store coupon policies, and they know when the stores aren’t crowded.
You don’t have to go to this extreme, but if you want to save money, couponers recommend joining your store’s loyalty program and buying items only when they are on sale. The store will track your year-to-date savings and mail you coupons based on previous purchases. The savings can be great. Rausch says her year-to-date savings at ShopRite once topped $10,000.
