Ering Gifford: I am Ering Gifford of couponcravings.

com and I am showing you how to save big money using coupons. In this segment we will focus on saving money at the grocery store. Its easy to cut your grocery going to half by clipping and clicking on coupons and then matching these with the weekly sale.

And I will show you how. The first place to look for great money saving coupons is the Sunday newspaper. There you will find lots of great coupons for products you buy every single day. But the key is not to cut the coupons and then throw away the inserts. What you want to do is cut the coupons; file them away in your coupon organizer system and then save the inserts in file folders so the next time a big sale comes up, you can refer back to these coupons and save lots of money using the coupons. The web is a great place for coupons. One site that I visit very regularly is coupons.

com where I can go, find and print out the coupons I need to take to the store. Another great place on the web for coupons is your favorite brands. Some of the sites I like to visit are bettycrocker.

com and pillsbury.

com to find great printable coupons for yoghurt, pie crust, cinnamon rolls, etcetera. Another site I go to since I have a kid is johnsonsbaby.

com where I can find great printable coupons for diaper cream and baby wash, for example. A third way to save with coupons is through electronic coupons. And a great site to check out is shortcuts.

com which lets you click on the coupons you want and then load them on to your store loyalty card so that the next time you go to your grocery store, you just scan your loyalty card like you always do. And the coupons are automatically deducted from your receipt. When the weekly ads for the supermarket and drugstore hit your mail box each week, take a look at whats on sale. And see if you have any coupons that you can match against the items. A lot of times you can actually get free items like toilet paper and toothpaste that when the item is on sale and you have a coupon that doubles, you get it completely free when it start that rock bottom price. So thats how we save money using coupons at the grocery store and now we are ready to move on to saving money with coupons at restaurants.
