You want to save at the grocery store, but saving the most at the grocery stores, doesn’t always mean buying right when you get a coupon. You’ll see a flurry of coupons at the beginning of the month, prompting you to buy right away.

But, in marketing, coupons are the first push to get you to buy their product.  However, most coupons have a longer expiration date.  I’d wait a few weeks on your coupon, and save coupons for grocery items you normally don’t purchase.  Now after it’s a couple weeks, or the coupon is near expiration, check the weekly paper.  Many of these items will have special sales in the next wave of discounting.  However, if you have saved your coupons, you can use your coupon on top of the discounts for super savings, getting most grocery store items with your coupons for net to nothing.

Where to Find Grocery Store Coupons?

If you don’t get a Sunday newspaper, a great place, at least for the United States to look, is Valpack.com.  They usually publish coupons by mail, but I use it for the $1 off coupon to Biggby coffee.  It makes the $1.89 coffee only $.89 which I’m actually drinking as I write this post.
