Best Coupon Web Sites?
March 2, 2009 at 11:33 AM by Cafe Kim - Comments (33)
Searching for deals online? I found several Web sites offering coupons and promotional codes for discounts on brand name groceries including Kellogg cereals, Yoplait yogurt—even Pillsbury refrigerated cookie dough.
There's a catch, right? Wrong!!!
Coupon Web sites have been around for a while, but are seeing a recent spike in traffic due to the recession. Visit these sites before hitting the grocery store, and you'll never pay full price again!
- Coupons.com: This Web site offers more than 90 printable coupons per day, most grocery- or drug store-related. (First-time users will need to download the free Coupon Printer software.) A current sampling of discounts include $5 on Huggies; $1 on V8; and $0.50 on Pillsbury Biscuits. New coupons are added almost every day.
- SmartSource.com: Similar to Coupons.com, this Web site also offers printable coupons for the grocery and drug stores. Current savings include: $0.40 off Betty Crocker Potatoes and $1 off Blue Diamond Almonds.
- CouponMom.com: A favorite of Oprah viewers, this site offers printable coupons, pulling mostly from Coupons.com and SmartSource.com. However, this site also provides restaurant coupons, online codes, and free samples.
- CouponCabin.com:This site aggregates up-to-date promotional codes for discounts on online shopping. For example, right now on the site there is a coupon for $5 off a $50 online purchase at Target. However, the site also directs you to printable coupons for grocerries, often on the retailer's Web site (example: $0.50 for Betty Crocker Cookie Mix at BettyCrocker.com or $2.50 off a Bertolli Frozen Meals from the official Bertolli Web site).
- ValPak.com: You may have gotten local Val Pak coupons in the mail. I like the Web site because you can search for printable coupons by zip code and then by category (Groceries, Beauty, Home, Restaurants, etc). Currently in my area, there are 62 grocery coupons including Buy One Get One Free for Meaty Bone Dog Biscuits and $1 off Kellogg Frosted Flakes.
And, of course, if you don't want to remember all these sites, you can always use Google: Just enter "the site/store/product you are looking for" + "coupon/discount".
Which online coupon site do you like to use?

You forgot the very best one, www.retailmenot.com! They even have a toolbar you can install to where when you go to a shopping website it will pop up if they have any codes for that site and the best ones. Love it. :)
I'll be checking these out. I don't go to the store without a handful of coupons anymore..lol!
and how about http://www.frugalcouponmom.com/ she has LOTS of ways to save.
My favorites are http://hotcouponworld.com and http://dealtaker.com
I like www.mypoints.com . . .
- they give points for shopping through them on certain retail sites
- you can print grocery coupons {once again you do get points for redeeming these coupons as well}
- if you can spare just a lil of your time per day, they send out emails of interest each day, and just for clicking you can earn points, WITHOUT actually having to buy anything from their suggested sites . . .
- you can cash in you points for gift cards, for a variety of retailers
There are also websites that pay you back cash to shop online. Shopping on line saves on tax money and gas driving to the stores. I never buy from any site that doesn't offer free shipping, discounts or coupons. The company I work for offers a FREE Cash back site that pays you to shop online. It is called Aisle 19. My cash back for this past month was a little over $50.00 --- There are over 600 stores including Target, Kohls, Walmart, Payless that offer up to 20% savings...You can get your FREE Aisle 19 website by going to www.aisle19.com and clicking 'join now' then enter id code # 872900 ..... Read the FAQ's and the How It works sections to learn how to get the most Cash Back !! Some people say it can't be so, whats the catch....BUT there is no catch and its Free to give it a try...You have nothing to lose but only Cash to save! Happy Shopping--BTW my fav store on Aisle 19 is overstockdrugstore.com it has makeup, toiletries and everything you need at HUGE savings
