The Coupon Game
Tuesday, January 8, 2008 at 3:05PM
I'm not very good with it. For the past week, I have been reading as much material on the subject as possible. I am incredibly overwhelmed. There are so many situations and scenarios that you have to understand in order to work many of the great deals that some of these stores offer.
Which Kroger doubles coupons? Does Meijer accept printable coupons? Do any of the stores in my area take expired coupons? What the heck are ExtraCare Bucks?
A gal could go crazy thinking about some of these things! Each store seems to have their own system of operation. I'm just at a loss. I hear of all these awesome deals, but I never seem to be able to duplicate any of them.
CVS ExtraCare Bucks are a real pain to understand. Grr.

I used the Grocery Game for awhile. It really did work to save money. I gave it up when I had no time to even CUT the coupons, much less organize them and shop with them! :)

It gets a lot easier as you go along! I promise! And if you have any CVS questions, just ask me! I love CVS!

Well if you ever figure it out please send me a tutorial. I know I could save a ton of money, I just don't have the time (or inclination) to sit down and figure it out! :)

Just keep trying! You can do it. The 1st store I figured out was Walgreens, and then I went from there. So, just try to figure out 1 store, and then the others! I'll help w/ any questions you have too!
Target is an easy store to start w/, although they don't have alot right now.
