I am a big couponer----learned to do it years ago---stopped and the daughter in law reintroduced me several years ago. I do internet coupons from various sites---I also use several sites that list what stores have on sale and show you coupon matches---

I also use electronic coupons that I load to my store cards---I have one for the grocery store I frequent, one for several drug stores in town.
My biggest issue is that in town we only have 1 grocery store and a Walmart. No one doubles. This summer, when I have time, I'm planning on weekly trips to the beach where I have more options.
Yesterday, I was planning for a weekend get away with Mr. Sexy and used coupons to buy some Dailey's premixed cocktails-Little pouches you place in the freezer and then they form little slushy drinks---I got 6 of them for free!!!
I also use daily deal sites to pick up things for gifts----
I bought myself $70 worth of organic produce--delivered from a farm for $20. I think it was like 17 lbs of produce and fresh herbs.
I don't buy Diet Coke unless it's on sale---I like when the local drug stores have them on sale and then give you reward bucks for buying. That's like free cash, which I use to buy other items on sale.
I plan my meals around what's on sale and what I have coupons for.
I also buy the meat in the grocery store that they've reduced because it is going to be out of date that day. I get a lot of mean 1/2 price and then freeze until I need it.
Mr. Sexy laughed at me and my coupon book when I first pulled it out---Now, he asks if I have it before we go shopping.
