Does anyone have a good online source for grocery coupons? I've been looking but most i come across you end up with no coupons and a lot of junk emails or advertisments. I'm really trying to cook at home more and with everything going up these days coupons would help. Thanks!
Hmmm. My Publix has always accepted my internet coupons. I know there has been a lot of fraud w/ people producing fake online coupons but I think some coupon providers have changed it so that it only scans if it's legit. Many stores have told me that it's ok to use it, as long as it "scans". Publix also accepts competitor coupons - like the $5 of $50 that Albertson's and Winn Dixie put in their flyers sometimes.
Smartsource is pretty good for me, but the best place to find coupons is the Sunday paper. Plus, there's a fantastic freebie site that isn't a bunch of junk or spam, although you may want to set up another yahoo or hotmail account just for these. It's absurdlycool.com. No www. in front of it.
The problem with coupons is that they're all for name brand items. Even when you take the coupon savings off most of the time you can get the generic version right beside it for cheaper. Some things the brand name really is better, but most it's basicly the same.
Another idea is to go to the manufacturer's website for anything that you use a lot of and sign up for any deals and they'll send you coupons directly.
I have found coupons on a webiste called couponsurfer.com. they will send you a daily pdate if you want and you can print out coupons. However, I know that Publix has a policy of not accepting comuter-printed coupons.
Good luck!

I know this isn't about coupons but I did have a suggestion to save money. If you go to Publix they always have buy one get one free items. I always stock up on them and the savings can add up. Plus, they have a push towards there brand food as well. So if you buy a certain cereal you can get their brand for free to compare them. Sometimes the cost of driving to different stores to get better prices doesn't save you anymore with the cost of gas, so I tend to do my shopping at the nearst store and make the best out of it. Since you have a 13mth old you can sign up for the baby club at Publix and they send you coupons for baby products, diary products etc every few months until she is 2 yrs old. The coupons are great but you don't get them as often as you would like. Good luck
www.coolsavings.com is another website that has printable coupons.
I have registered with Pillsbury and Kraft. They both email coupons and recipies. They are great resources.
Is this the T. that I know??? In Georgia??
