Suggestions For Buy One Get One Free Coupon Hype

Posted by Tiffany Scott

The economy is making it difficult for people to purchase the items needed let alone items that luxury and not must have products. I was one of those customers moaning and groaning as the person in front of me sorted through coupons looking for one valid for each item in their cart. That was before I heard the savings of a customer in front of me one day. The lady had just saved almost seventy dollars on her purchases. I broke down and ask how she managed to save that much money. I knew she had coupons, I just was not aware of the type. She told me the best ones she had were the buy one get one free coupons.

Finally it was my turn at the register. Having no coupons to present for my purchases my total came to much more than the coupon ladies and I had a severely smaller amount of items than her. I grumbled all the way home and swore I would find out about the coupon gold mine.

What I found was there are coupons for anything and everything, both necessities and luxuries. I remembered my mom cutting out coupons from the newspaper every Sunday so that it where I did my first research. There were coupons for every restaurant we ate it, diapers for the grandchildren, oil changes and then I found the mother of all coupons.

My greatest find was for a spa I had wanted to try out but never had the money to go. This coupon made me really see the coupon light. According to the instructions printed on the coupon if I brought a friend to the spa we could both get free massages with purchase of a manicure and pedicure. After basking in my find, I called my sister who agreed to spend the thirty dollars needed to go to the spa. We spent three glorious hours being completely pampered for thirty dollars; I am for this reason an avid coupon user.

It is possible to find a coupon valid for anything at any time. The hard part is deciding which ones will be used. If you eat out several times a week, there are coupons available to save you hundreds of dollars a year on pizza, burgers and specialty restaurants. It is important to read the restrictions of coupons used for restaurants prior to trying to use them. Some will require a specific food item or only a one topping pizza, however, there are some that are buy one meal and get another one free.

Some coupons may appear great when you first notice them; however, it is important to read the requirements of some. If you have found a coupon for fifty cents off of your favorite muffin, but have to buy a five dollar package of tofu with the muffins and you do not eat tofu, the fifty cents will not be a savings when you throw away the tofu. In other words, do not buy unnecessary items you will not use to save on items you will use.

When cutting out coupons for the week you should put aside a couple of hours to make sure you read them and cut out all of the ones you intend to use. Sunday is a great day to spend a few hours sifting through the newspaper for coupons or you can go to an online site and request specific coupons to be sent through your email.

Coupons will make a big dent in the final cost at the cash register. You have to be dedicated to finding them and using them. Store ads will often times offer buy one get one free coupon for weekly items so check the store ads as well as the newspaper and online.
