KittyT said:But how much are you *actually* saving every week? And is the 50 cents or whatever you're actually saving a week worth the time it takes to hunt for the coupons? Maybe it is, or maybe it does actually save you a lot of money. I'm just trying to throw out a cautionary warning for some people, because with pay services like this, you really do have to work to see the savings, and it's easy to end up spending more than you save, especially if you're kindof flaky about stuff like I am lol
Well thats the thing....I know a bit about the grocery game and it is time saving compared to say trying to look at 4 store circulars to figure out which one is on sale and which cupon goes with which.
They basically match up the sales, with the current crop of cupons out there. They then tell you what week the cupon came from in the sunday paper, what the store is that has it on sale and so forth...you dont even have to cut them out until they come up on super sale. Just file away the -whole- cupon section of the paper with the date noted on it, and you are set. There is no hunting.
So if you are a cupon user in the first place, its a time saving boon, but if you are unlikely to use cupons no matter what....then no.
