The Coupon Cupboard, you may

not learn them you will basically be reading a foreign language.
Here is a list of some of the most common ones being used.
Hopefully it will help you understand what the crowd is talking

Money Saving Tips
In order to be a fantastic coupon
shopper, you will need a few tips to help you get the best savings
you can.
- When an item is on sale for Buy 1 Get 1 Free, it is actually
very common for you to be able to use two coupons. One for each
item which makes for a much greater savings! Be sure to check with
your local store for their policy on this because, as always, each
store is different. This is the best deal at a store that rings up
two items are half price instead of one item full price and one
item free.
- If you have a coupon that says "off any size," the smartest
thing to do is purchase the smallest size item. Most travel size
items are $1.00 or less so this is a great place to stock up on
items you use all the time like deodorant. For a long time there
were baby wipes coupons out for $.50/1 that did not specify a
size.

The first thing that you need to do to start getting all of those
great deals you hear about is accumulating coupons. Each week there
are usually two different coupon inserts in most newspapers. Once a
month there will be THREE inserts. And then there is that exciting
weekend for us couponers that pops up once in a great while where
you get four, five or even SIX inserts! It's rare, but it does
happen.
Having multiples of each coupon makes it easier for you to take
advantage of all of the sales and get multiples items at once. This
helps build a food storage, which we refer to as a stockpile.
Obtaining multiple inserts each week is not as hard as a lot of
people think it is. The easiest and cheapest way is to ask family,
friends, neighbors and co-workers to save them for you. I have been
couponing for five years and I still get inserts from my family.
