Tip of the Week

Know Your Store’s Coupon Policy
Did you know many stores accept competitor’s coupons?

Some great examples:
The Entertainment Guide usually has coupons good for $5 off a $50 purchase at Winn Dixie. Take that $5 coupon to Publix, KMart, or Albertsons (whomever has the best sale that week) and they will take the $5 off of your $50 or greater purchase there.

Winn Dixie periodically offers a $2 off a $20 minimum purchase. Publix will accept these too with a $20 purchase before coupons. I try to use free item coupons to bring the total up to $20, then use the $2 off coupon.

The bottom line is to know the policy, then clip those store coupons.
