May 11, 2007, Newsletter Issue #150: Where to Start as a Coupon Clipping Newbie

Tip of the Week

For newbie grocery coupon clippers wondering where to start:
*Start with a filing system. For a newbie the coupon organizers they sell at the grocery store work well(as you become more familiar with couponing you can develop an organizing system).
*Start clipping! Look for grocery coupons in the newspaper, in magazines, on product packaging, and online.
*Know the bottom line. The store brand of an item may cost less than a name brand, even with a grocery coupon.
*Don't be afraid to try a new brand. If you can get a deep discount on a brand of spaghetti sauce or dish soap you don't normally buy, try it once. You might find a new favorite!
*Don't get overwhelmed. With time comes experience! You'll be less of a newbie and more of a coupon queen (or king!) before you know it.
